I think it's good to have surprises in fashion because we always see the same things.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
When you're editor-in-chief of a big magazine, you cannot be a cover girl for MAC; you cannot be the face of Givenchy - of course you can't; it's doesn't go with the job.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I think it's less common in France that a man at the age of 50 buys a Porsche and gets a young girlfriend.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
We have the sort of beautiful older woman here in Paris. People like Loulou de la Falaise and Betty Catroux, all these beautiful looking women over 60... So there is culture here in France that even if you are older, you can stay beautiful.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
If people ask me to describe my look, I always say: 'Quite classic with an edge.'
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I have good legs, so I prefer my skirt lengths and my high heels. It's like my uniform.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
Sometimes you think you aren't a good mama; you always feel a bit guilty when you're a mom. You want to be everywhere.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I am just doing photo shoots. It's not something that extraordinary. I'm not a great artist, I'm not writing books, I'm not a painter, and people in the streets ask me for a picture or a note, and I say, 'Why?'
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
Here in France, I've seen some very good young designers, but they don't have this ability to be good businessmen, too. I think America gives you this.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
As you get older, you see life is very short, so you have to appreciate more and more and to enjoy it.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I am very excited to be able to work more with young designers and support them.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
If I'm doing something in fashion, I will try to respect the 'laws' of the business, but I will try to keep my integrity and my respect for the designers and for my readers.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
The reason I call my book 'Irreverent' is because there were a lot of pictures that were very irreverent. Maybe I could call my book 'Forgiving' because maybe I made a lot of errors, too.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I hate mules. I hate the noise when someone walks with mules. Clomp, clomp, clomp. I think it's very not chic. I don't even like a flip-flop. I don't like this noise.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I think that Americans, they love comfort more than Europeans. Americans created the T-shirt, the sweat pants, and they create the best sporting shoes.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
In Japan, you can learn how to make a bunch of flowers. This is an art. Tea ceremony, it's an art.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I think when I became a grandmother my life changed a lot, and I think I changed personally.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
If I like a make-up artist's look, even if nobody knows about her, I use her. New people give me energy.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
You lose attitude when you feel too comfortable, so I prefer to wear clothes that have a certain edge to them.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
Only buy clothes that you plan to keep forever. It's important to see trends for what they are: a game.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I love the noise of my wooden clogs on my wooden floor. Dancers wear clogs. They're good for you.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
If you don't want to get bored with what you're doing, you have to change.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I was the muse of Tom Ford and Gucci for years, but that was a long time ago.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
Fashion isn't something you can buy; you need to have the sense of it, and most people don't.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I don't like intellectuals, or, at least, people who call themselves that way, because I am under the impression that there is always something condescending in their demeanour, and I don't like condescending people.
Quote by -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.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
We are very luck to be women, so even if we're wearing trousers, I always wear them with some lace underwear or a very feminine bra - I like that.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
Each morning I do my ballet class for one hour; after that, it means one hour less to get ready.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I think that each woman, whatever age, needs to recognize something good in her body. Someone has beautiful legs, someone has beautiful hair, someone else has beautiful decolletage or a beautiful waist or beautiful hands. Everyone has something great.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
The most important thing is posture: when you get old, it's the way you walk, the way you stand, that shows it.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
I discovered the slip dress, which I think is one of the more French things because when you take off your clothes, even when to go into a shop to buy something, or you're going to Riccardo Tisci to try on a suit, it's like having protection.
Quote by -Carine Roitfeld
When you go to a show, Americans in New York are very proper, much more so than the French. Everything is perfect. Their hair, the nails, everything. The look. Everything is perfection.
