Carine Roitfeld

I miss my parents. But still, my granddaughter, my daughter, my grandma, you know, so it's very important for me. You lost your parents, but a new baby comes. It's like the cycle of fashion.

I'm so tired of this vision of fashion of a diva with a big ego, and you think of big dark glasses to be pretentious and keep far away from the people.

I am afraid of blood, but for some reason often I put blood in my photos... I don't know why.

People say, 'Where do you live?' and I say that theoretically, I live in London, but basically that's just where I go to change my suitcase. Otherwise, I'm always flying somewhere.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.

A free life cannot acquire many possessions, because this is not easy to do without servility to mobs or monarchs.
