DESIGNER IN VOGUE

CARINE ROITFELD, editor of French Vogue and famously one of the chicest women in the world, has at last turned her hand to design. Formerly a key consultant to Gucci when Tom Ford was at it's helm, Roitfeld has hooked up with sweater label Lutz & Patmos which previously collaborated with Sofia Coppola, according to WWD. Her first effort, for the spring/summer 2006 collection, is a cashmere top called the 'tramp' featuring elbow patches and designer tears. (November 10 2005, AM)

I don't know too much about Ms. Roitfeld... but I do know that I like her more than Ms. Wintour. B)

Lutz & Patmos do a new sweater collaboration every season. Inez van Lamsweerde designed one a couple years ago.

 

[Mr-Dale]

I didn't even know she was at Gucci. This sounds pretty interesting, she indeed has a great sense of style... Thanks for sharing!

Carine Roitfeld designs (for Lutz&Patmos)

Seems that fresh artistic/fashion collaborations are 'the thing to do' and how refreshing when non-designers dare to attempt participation.
even though not exactly a fan of Mrs Roitfeld's work at Vogue Paris,
i'm looking forward to see what her design attempt will look like

Carine Roitfeld , editor in chief of French Vogue and a key consultant to Gucci during the Tom Ford era, has officially made the leap to designer. She’s the latest guest designer for sweater firm Lutz & Patmos, which recently collaborated with filmmaker Sofia Coppola. Roitfeld’s contribution to the spring collection is a cashmere sweater dubbed the “tramp” with elbow patches and strategically placed rips and tears.
