Julia Restoin-Roitfeld Goes Before the Camera

Julia Restoin-Roitfeld Goes Before the Camera If you’re not already familiar with French Vogue editrix Carine Roitfeld’s scion, Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, you will be soon. The Parsons grad is a trained art director who has cut her teeth under Fabion Baron at Baron & Baron (she was subsequently chosen as the creative force behind Rock & Republic’s FW08 ad campaign, which starred her brother Vladimir). But, these days, she’s moonlighting as a model and spokesperson more often than setting up shop behind-the-scenes. Having recently posed for an editorial spread in Harper’s Bazaar UK and starred in ads for Mango, Restoration of the Monarchy, and Tom Ford’s Black Orchid fragrance campaign, the doe-eyed brunette has already racked up quite the modeling resume.

Melissa Coker’s Filmic Fashion

imageIn this digital age, lookbooks are largely archaic -- now it's all about the short-film lookbook. It's now often customary for hip designers to assemble their celebrity pals for a fashion-cum-performance art piece. Wren designer Melissa Coker is carrying the torch this season. She has her pals model Karen Elson, Sarah Sophie Flicker (of the Citizen's Band), and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld (daughter of French Vogue editor Carine Roitfeld) showing off her Spring 2009 collection. Coker and her filmmaker pal Alia Raza combined dialogue from Robert Altman's 3 Women and Woody Allen's Another Woman to create a short called "Another 3 Woman." Raza explains, "It's less about the literalness of what is occurring on screen and more about what remains in our minds and influences us after we've seen a film or a work of art."
