There’s a lot of talk about Laetitia Casta and Carine Roitfeld lately.

Separately – Laetitia had a beautiful picture exhibition in Paris by fashion photographer Dominique Issermann while Mrs. Roitfeld is lauching in September her fashion biannual magazine CR, one year after her departure from Vogue.

As the French issue of Vogue is out, the two names are remembered together this time.

The corsican model is featured on the cover. And the new direction given by Emmanuelle Alt is clearly very different from Roitfeld – simple, less provocative but also less creative and challenging this time.

Even if you don’t want to, you are automatically comparing Alt’s styling and direction to Roitfeld one’s.
