I just had the most amazing time with my dearest Coupine during Fashion Week in Paris!
LOVE this picture of her on the way to the Carven show…perfectParis girl style.
Carola was wearing an Equipment blouse with her vintage Kiliwatch leather skirt (a little treasure found during our previous Paris trip), Chanel bag, Bottega Veneta sunnies and her brand new Maje booties!
Amanda Brooks before the Carven show at Jardin des Tuileries. She’s been appointed Fashion Director for Barneys NY beginning of this year and was frontrow at all of the shows here in Paris. I have always loved her effortless blend of high-end designer pieces and individual style.
The good news first: all of us who missed out on those highly covetedT-shirts by Garance Dore for Gap, have now the possibility to get one of these goodies for Elle UK readers!!
The bad news: if you’re not a UK resident or have your BBF living there (who will run to the newsstand and fdex you Elle’s newest issue + t-shirt) it might be difficult to score one of them!
LUCKILY, Garance thought of us… and all we have to do is share our worst (fashion) advice ever!!
Bon, we should be able to come up with something, right…;)??
Kate Moss and Terry Richardson starring in a short movie for Mango’s Fashion Show in Paris.
Mango is playing it big those days with a super fancy runway show hosted at Centre Pompidou. Check out the report of the event by Mango’s new it-girl Andy from stylescrapbook.
New talent and True Grit star Hailee Steinfeld is officially the new face of Miu Miu.
14-year old Hailee has given proof of an excellent, and above all age appropriate, style! She has rocked red carpets outfits from Marchesa to Prabal Gurung, but it’s indeed Miu Miu, which suits her the best:
To me Hailee and MiuMiu are a lovely match! What do you think about Miuccia’s choice of the new face??
Together with Elle Fanning, Hailee represents a new generation of natural and down-to-earth, young actresses, who have fun with fashion, without overdoing it. We want to see more of that!!!
Today, Chloé announced the end of Hannah McGibbon’s contract as creative director of the fashion house.
During the past three years, Hannah’s work has always been quite controversial…especially her last collection, which went way too heavy on snakeskin prints. Despite all, Hannah did a great job at Chloe, so let’s have a look at Les Coupines’ favourites:
This spring’s collection was full of wonderfullballet references (which are perfectly captured in this video featuring prima ballerina Janie Taylor)…we loved the tulle and pleated skirts, the mix of nude and red, and also those sublime black leather shorts.
Our highlights of past collections include the very vintage-like denimpatch work look, those perfect dark green velvet pants with the cute cristal and bow embellished ballet flats and the little silk shorts and scallop appliques from Hannah’s debut collection.
New creative director succeeding power women Hannah McGibbon, Phobe Philo and Stella McCartney, will be Pringle of Scotland’s Claire Waight Keller. We’re excited to see where Chloe is heading next…
