Fashion shows used to be more crazy. Now they've become a bit too serious.
Carine Roitfeld
I am not a good professional of fashion. I am not an expert about how clothes are constructed or the history of fashion. I never start with fashion. I always think of the girl and her personality - because all that matters to me when you look at a page is, Do you want to be that girl?
Carine Roitfeld
A magazine is not just one person. And a fashion shoot is the same!
Carine Roitfeld
Fashion's about extravagance, and everyone needs a bit of that.

Carine Roitfeld
In a way, I envy the freedom artists have. Artists can push themselves beyond their limits, in pursuit of their ideas and their vision, even if they are inhabited by demons that can also play tricks on them.
Carine Roitfeld
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
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
