Carine Roitfeld chats to MyTheresa.com.

Carine Roitfeld, super editor talks fashion’s do’s and don’ts to MyTheresa.com.

“When I was a little girl, fashion was not important as it was today”

“How can you be chic? You don’t learn to be chic. You learn to avoid errors”.

“To be chic, it’s something you have inside”.

“Clothes are very important. It can change your life. It can change how you feel that day. You can be nicer because you feel more beautiful”.

“But the person is more important than what she is wearing.”

“I will never wear something that is not me. I prefer to think of the woman in front of me than to think of the coat in front of me”.

“ I think I worked more than 10 years with Tom Ford. He told me, ‘Each 10 years you have to go back to your wardrobe and you have to edit.’

“I will never do something I don’t like. Even if it’s trendy I will not wear it “

“It’s having ugly hair feet !” ( on the furry sandals trend).

“I hate them” ( on sneakers)

“I don’t have a regular work look: I would wear the same to work as I am wearing to visit you today or to attend a fashion show or to travel”

“It’s always the same so people often I think I’m too sophisticated to take a plane but that’s my way”

“The secret of a woman is to know what is good for her”

“I know I have good legs and I have good eyes so I am always wearing skirts and black around my eyes”

“I prefer to take off something than to add something. I am very simple.”
