Considered a global fashion icon + editor, Carine Roitfeld’s recent capsule collection with Uniqlo is finally available for purchase. Roitfeld, the former Editor-in-Chief of French Vogue, + the Founder + Editor-in-Chief of CR Fashion Book, single-handedly redefined people’s eye for fashion through her legendary campaigns + signature style. Through this collection, women everywhere will be able to assume the role of the confident seductress Carine is, without even trying, by showing just enough + not baring it all.
The collection comprised of tops, bottoms, accessories, including purses + scarves, + outerwear, which all scream ‘Carine’. With a range of blacks + greys, there are several patterns to choose from, including animal prints, my favorite.
Favoring tailored silhouettes that accentuate her great figure, there’s this wonderful ‘Carine Wool Chester Coat‘. Of course, also known for her sexy sheer looks + accents, no woman should be without this great sheer ‘Carine Flocky Printed Long Sleeved Blouse‘ + interesting ‘Carine Tights‘, which look like large fishnets but with circle cutouts.

Carine is also never afraid to take risks. Able to play with pieces influenced by masculinity, this ‘Carine Tuxedo Jacket‘ is not only a classic but a must in any stylish woman’s closet. The ‘Carine Mohair Blended Sweater‘ is super fun with it’s moth attacked look, while the ‘Carine Silk Camisole Dress‘, makes for the perfect + timeless LBD.
