When I don't know what to wear, I wear black lace.
From Carine Roitfeld
Fashion has a political role insofar as following it can give you the impression to belonging to a certain social group or a private club.
I love black lingerie and white shoes, and I love knives.
I'm still like a butterfly going from one job to another job. But it's quite lovely - I hope to keep this freedom, to have fun.
I've always used black girls on the runway, because I think they're beautiful. I don't need people to tell me, 'You need to use black girls.' I did for 20 years; it's not a new thing for me.
I was the muse of Tom Ford and Gucci for years, but that was a long time ago.
I am not a celebrity. I work with celebrities, and it is very difficult. When a celebrity wears a dress, it's good for business, so brands fight for the red carpet. Me? I don't like it, because fashion becomes a job about dressing celebrities. And it's a bit boring.
I want to be the Joan of Arc of fashion. I want to be the link between the runway and the real woman.
The fashion industry certainly has its obscene sides. The cost of a coat can be obscene. So can the cost of a photo shoot if you're working with a really good photographer.
I miss my parents. But still, my granddaughter, my daughter, my grandma, you know, so it's very important for me. You lost your parents, but a new baby comes. It's like the cycle of fashion.
