I think it's good that [my granddaughter] here because I lost my parents and now it's great that there's a new generation. And she's taught me new things that I've forgotten. Like, when you're on holiday and see what it's like to see a shell or go into the water for the first time.

Carine RoitfeldEach time Iยm coming out of my apartment I remember the quote of Coco Chanel; she said, ยEach time Iยm leaving my apartment or my hotel, Iยm looking at myself in the mirror and I take off one piece of my look. Itยs always one thing too much.ย And itยs a bit the same, always I take off my scarf or I take off my bag or jewellery because I like it simple. Coco Chanel is a great consultant I think.
