A SYMBOL OF COOL

I always look forward to visiting my family in Paris. Actually, what I look forward to is analyzing what the French girls are wearing. Paris is the self-professed city of fashion and I still marvel at the numerous key industry players the place continuously produces: Coco Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Alaia, Nicolas Gheskière, Alber Elbaz, Camille Bidault Waddington, Garance Doré, Carine and Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, Charles Anastase, Valentine Fillol-Cordier and ... Emmanuelle Alt!
Yes, Emmanuelle Alt. One of the most exciting talent at French Vogue, a woman who understands what's hot now, this moment, and brings her own sharply defined personality to her styling work. She has the goods and solid ideas. She creates fresh expressions of how young women want to dress, always with a little French street touch. A true tastemaker, not only does she work for Vogue Paris but she is also represented by Katy Barker, making the mastery of her craft available to other publications. Relentlessly creating a modern path for fashion, mixing casual, luxury and quality to offer us an image that is accessible yet extremely cool. I love what she does. I believe that she catches the scent of Paris accurately...

we should make stylist trading cards. i will have a giant stack of marie-amelie and katie grands to trade you for some emmanuelles and camilles.

White lightning: Hours and hours of fun although I'd prefer Katy England trading cards. Katie Grand doesn't quite do it for me!

I've never been to Paris :(

The collage looks wonderful. It's great being able to look at some of my fave eds all in one go!

I love the Hedi Slimane with Sasha, and I'm a sucker for anything done by Richardson.
