More quotes by Carine Roitfeld
I do go very fast. I think if I don't go fast it's going to be boring. That's what photographers need to do.
Carine Roitfeld
Maybe people have no idea how much work is behind a picture. It can seem very effortless but there is a lot of work. It’s exactly like doing ballet. It’s hours and hours but when you go onstage it’s just the pleasure of dancing.

Even though I love fashion, I prefer people to fashion. Fashion is to make the person comfortable in her body, its not something very serious, you get to play.
Carine Roitfeld
I think you are born chic. You cannot be chic. It is something you cannot learn.

I get an award for being the best dressed, but at the end of the day I'm not Daphne Guinness. I don't like people to look at me for my dress. The letter is more important than the envelope. But if you feel good in your envelope, then you will feel better about yourself.
Carine Roitfeld
A magazine is not just one person. And a fashion shoot is the same!
Carine Roitfeld
I think that something needs to be weird in order to have real beauty.
Carine Roitfeld
Each woman needs to know herself and think that the clothes are here to make her more beautiful, because the person is more important than the clothes.
Carine Roitfeld
In fashion, it’s always better to be an interesting person than a beautiful one. Character is much more fascinating than pure good looks.
Carine Roitfeld
My biggest icon is Liz Taylor because I dont think she had great taste but I loved her energy.
Carine Roitfeld
I think, in many ways, certain people sought me out maybe because they liked my body language or they liked the way I wore a slit skirt, the way I cross my legs or carry my purse. It's quite inspiring to play the seduction card.
Carine Roitfeld
Either you are a good Virgo or a crazy Virgo! The good Virgo side of me is educating and raising the children - being there for them.
Carine Roitfeld
People always say, 'You look like Iggy Pop.'
Carine Roitfeld
Fashion's about extravagance, and everyone needs a bit of that.

I don't have problems with my weight, I don't change weight but I think when you're gaining in age your position has to be beautiful.
