The Fashion Queen Praised by Tom Ford and Riccardo Tisci
From the production company behind "The September Issue," the documentary on American Vogue editor Anna Wintour, comes the second installment in their series on fashion editors: "Mademoiselle C" (original title: "Mademoiselle C").
The focus this time is Carine Roitfeld, the former editor-in-chief of French Vogue. After leaving the magazine in 2011, she launched her own publication, "CR Fashion Book." The film intimately follows Carine's demanding work schedule, capturing her glamorous days as she navigates fashion shows, parties, and magazine shoots. At 58, having recently become a grandmother, Carine also opens up about her private life. "My private life is very calm. I've been with the same man for 30 years. So, my fantasy has gone into fashion photography," she jokes. What is the daily life of this "queen of the fashion world" truly like?




Always stylish and full of energy, Carine is an icon for many women. In the film, fashion designer Tom Ford comments, "Carine is my ideal woman. She has become a legend of this era." The film also features a dazzling cast of designers and celebrities, including Karl Lagerfeld, Giorgio Armani, Alber Elbaz, and Sarah Jessica Parker.
"Mademoiselle C: A Muse of Fashion" is scheduled for release in Japan starting April 2014.
