Carine Roitfeld Talks About Iggy Pop, Fashion
Carine Roitfeld and Iggy Pop: Dopplegangers and Future Collaborators?
Carine Roitfeld sat down with the Financial Times in a remarkably candid interview that touched upon her future plans — styling the Barneys Fall windows and catalog, her fallout with current French Vogue editor Emmanuelle Alt, Anna Wintour's "first lady" status, the thing she hates most in fashion (hint, it's a shoe style), and her doppelganger. Here's an amusing excerpt from the article:
"[Carine] hopes to "celebrate herself" by recruiting someone to be involved [in the Barneys' project] who looks rather a lot like her: Iggy Pop. “People always say, ‘You look like Iggy Pop,'" she says, apparently unconcerned by the comparison to a rather grizzled-looking, 64-year-old man. “I don’t know if it’s the eyes or the hair, anyway, he has a great style.”
Here is Carine and Iggy Pop. Do you think they're doppelgangers?
