the queen of porno chic.

"It’s difficult as the editor of a magazine to be totally yourself because you’re a bit frightened. Now I think I go back where I was ten years ago, so I get younger, which is always good. Younger with dreams and younger with energy. Younger with risk, because now it will be my own risk; it won’t be Vogue’s risk. Always I will be a risky woman. I will keep this legend."

-Carine Roitfeld

He really gets into the heart and soul of Carine and why she left Vogue even touching on her many tiffs over the past few years including ones with Emmanuelle Alt and Nicolas Ghesquière. Oh, and her casual lunches with Riccardo Tisci and Karl Lagerfeld (no big deal). click HERE for more words from the queen of porno chic.
