New Reports Claim Carine Roitfeld Was Fired!

Rumors are swirling that Carine Roitfeld was actually fired or as the French would say "mise à pied" from her post at French Vogue.

Numerous sources say that Conde Nast was fed up with all the bad press the editor-in-chief was getting.

Earlier this year Carine was blacklisted from Balenciaga after she allegedly helped Max Mara knock off their designs before they were returned to the French fashion house.

But that wasn't the only label she pissed off.

LVMH's Bernard Arnault was none too pleased with the latest issue of Vogue Paris. Apparently their weren't enough LVMH credits and thought an editorial with young girls was in "poor taste". Arnault even threatened to pull all the luxury group's ads from the next issue.

Yikes.

Employees at French Vogue say they came to work on Friday with an email that said Roitfeld was "mise à pied", which basically means Conde Nast fired her.

Inneresting.

Tom Ford & Carine Roitfeld Collaboration In The Works?

After news broke on Friday that French Vogue's Carine Roitfeld would be resigning, the fashion world started speculating on what she'd do next.

Many believed she and Tom Ford would be collaborating again, just like they did in the 90s when the designer was at Gucci and then Yves Saint Laurent.

Unfortunately, that's not happening.

Tom squashed those rumors almost immediately, telling the New York Times:

"Carine and I have no plans to work together at the moment, and it is nothing that we have even discussed, but of course I think she is brilliant and we are close friends so who knows about the future."

And there you have it.

At least there's still a possibility. Maybe on his next womenswear collection?

Vogue Paris' Carine Roitfeld Resigns!

We are shocked!

After 10 years as editor-in-chief, Carine Roitfeld announced she is leaving her post at Vogue Paris to focus on "personal projects".

The French Anna Wintour told the New York Times:

"It’s 10 years that I’m editor of the magazine, I think it’s time to do something different. When everything is good, maybe I think it’s the time to do something else."

Carine's successor will be announced in a few weeks, which is around the time she'll say au revoir.
