and was wondering who she was!!!

I'm so happy many of you are loving Melanie and this thread....it makes all the effort worthwhile

Now, I've just come across these scans but I have no idea what issue they come from, the photographer....can anyone fill in these gaps of information? More scans from this ed?

is she a stylist or an assistant?..
the title of the thread should be accurate...and if she is ans assistant it should say so....
she may be cute...
but so far i don't see any styling...
only personal style...


two very different things...

^softie. Melanie is asst. of Carine R. but do some styling for random pages in Vogue Paris. like the "en vogue" pages etc.
she's not yet an "established" stylist. so maybe you should change the name, I don't know.

[softgrey]

i don't know either..
but i know that there are a LOT of stylists who have worked and slaved for years and have done AMAZING AMAZING editorials who have no thread even...
and it doesn't seem right that a young assistant who has only done a few things gets to be called a stylist and has a thread...

just feels really inappropriate...
politically speaking...

i mean-- ok- she has a thread...but we should just be honest about who she is and what she has done...

what is her ethnicity? does anyone know? my friend has the same last name and she is Viet.

She is a great stylist, especially with the En Vogue pages. Unfortunately it's quite difficult to post her work since no-one scans those pages (some people forget they are editorials in their own right), even when requested. It's quite difficult to keep threads going with little help.
I also feel it's important to see a stylist's own personal style because it informs you of their influences and saunters into their own work.

^ thanks for posting!
At first I didn't think it was Melanie (in the face that was)...but no, it definitely is her!
