Fashion is FULL of Virgos. It really is.
I think it’s because it allows them to delineate things non-stop.
Think about it. Hemlines, detailing on handbags, subtle interpretations of trends, referencing and a bit of judgement…
Carine Roitfeld, the French Vogue editor is fabulous.
Whenever I read her in interviews, she always sounds SO refreshing & funny. She’s uber-Virgoan, denouncing clutter and v.clear about her opinions & disdain for various things. Her office is renowned for its lack of clutter. Three books only and some Damian Hirst Diamond Skulls.Which she collects. Virgos always collect something.
She is, naturally, meant to be Madame It of Fashion so it caused somewhat of a stink the other day when she arrived at some show wearing an outfit with NO PANTS. NOR SKIRT.
Now, seeing as Virgoans don’t do this sort of thing lightly – she is not a Sagg who just looked at her pants, sniffed with derision and thought ‘fuq it’, she is a French Virgoan Fashion Icon – i am thinking she is doing a Thank God Saturn Is Out Of Virgo statement or a Uranus Is Opposite My Sun And I Am In My 50s Still With Fab Legs statement.
If it’s not that then i dread to think of this look becoming ubiquitous.

the ONLY Vogue editor who still styles her shoots – goddess ! ! !
xox
-
I want to wear that everyday! And collect diamond skulls! And edit French Vogue! Can I just be her? Please? Pretty please?
-
rock chick chic personified!!
-
i must say the skulls are fabulous…
-
-
dig it
-
this also supports a personal theory that Virgos are the kinkiest sun sign
-
Damn right!
-
Yummy.

I’d like to think that when I am famous for my creativity, imagination and vision, I have a team of intensely loyal but independent-minded Virgo henchmen/women to execute the grand creative plans and provide helpful analysis. and to hustle the slackers. I just can’t do that without feeling like an ass but others I know are SO GOOD at it! enforcing the Vision.. Also maybe a scorpio (/cap asc?) business associate who I could rely on for assessing business / interpersonal threats…
-
yes yes yes! I want them too … a Virgo task master … though I think I may have found a potential business partner who I swear is a Libran … the woman could sell ice to eskimos.

….”Uranus Is Opposite My Sun And I Am In My 50s Still With Fab Legs statement…….” you rock Mystic!!
how fantastically she represents new feminism – be who & how you want to be – leaving agist dullards flapping their jealous wings in her wake……..HOT!
-
omg, please let me look like that at 50.
Do virgo’s have a ‘fuq it i’m doing what i want’ switch. ? Or would this have come as a result of careful monitoring fashion runways and choosing thr least likely to be copied look?
Damn…i hope i look like that at 40….
-
brain mush….was too overwhelmed by pic ’statement’ making to register.
I shut up now.

Le Turd & I often discussed the Hirst Skull scenario…. we coulndt divine if the guy was a genius or taking the piss….. BTW U.S media coined Le Turd as the Aussie D.Hirst….& Le Turd IS taking the piss. But twas the Skulls that really flashed warning signs.
Especially when sold for 50 mill quid yet Hirst still owned shares in it…..even the concept is no original, nor is there proof it was actually sold http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/For_the_Love_of_Godbefore jumping on the diamond skull bandwagon watch this BBC doco on The Contemporary Art Bubble – lifting the lid on price fixing, with evidence of Hirsts own gallery bumping up prices / lying re what work has actually been sold…..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gth8_3msnIkmade me think trice pre raising hand at auction….
anyway good on Carine – Hirst probly gave em to her!!
-
Thanks for posting those rlp. You talked about that doco before and I meant to look it up. Always thought there was something fishy about Hirst.
-
-
No no no….too old , too black, too much lace/ skulls / details……Uber virgo should be maniacally cleaning not looking like Twilight / Goth/ thingy!
-
yes…I agree with you. She seems to be trying to rock the ‘Twilight-New Moon” vibe that is already out there ….A black cape ?…too campy !
-
-
she’s HOT! yep, aiming to look that good at 50.
-
“she is not a Sagg who just looked at her pants, sniffed with derision and thought ‘fuq it’” – lines like that are why I read this website. LOL.
And I share your sentiment about this NOT becoming a trend.
-
Nice call Mystic! she is le style queen! x
-
Love her… put oh dear, it had better not become a trend. Saturday nights in the city are already a horror show – imagine if all the young things on the razz decide to do so sans pants!
-
I agree that she’s put a lot of thought into this outfit! There are no mistakes here and as a Virgo with (what others have described as) a penchant for eccentric dressing, I’m with her. Sure, I frequently look odd but none of it is by chance. In fact I really quite like looking odd. Which could be my renegade Sagg rising of course (I often assume a ‘fuck it’ attitude when I’ve really gone over the top), but I’m collecting Virgo friends at the moment and none of them are remotely conservative – I would go so far as to say that all of them have a touch of the maverick. Am I simply collecting Virgos with fire planets? What’s it about?
And I personally wouldn’t mind if this look took off. I’m not concerned with what people are wearing, what I really dig is a bold statement. One of the many reasons I frequent this site!!
-
is that jean paul gaultier in the background? bless.
yeah this woman is awesome. she reminds me of mui mui prada, these fashion chicks with real compassion and insight and intelligence. v. cool. effortless and natural. that outfit im a bit like oh not so much, and im aqua virgo rising. i saw her in this really great combo of stonewash jeans and cafe au lait type jersey that was really ahead. im just not getting this goth thing at all. im afriad it means im outta the loop. eeekzor.-
well spotted re JPG!!

have already seen a few unfortunate chicks getting around in almost opaque pantyhose sans pants/skirt. its the beth ditto look. tho roitfeld in patterned tights makes it look good – as always. she was my eyeliner role model in high school. *sigh*
-
Also, debating going into fashion myself. Hate the business, but love style. My favourite part of the day is playing dress up in my room to find out what I’ll wear tomorrow. Always doodling women in luxurious avant-garde or theatrical dress. I have so much fun drawing the female figure bathed in fabrics! Meep! Must be a virgo thing? Maybe I should go for it, apparently it works for all my virgoan brothers and sisters.
-
I am finally pursuing my love of design this year. (not a virgo but enough in the chart to stun a horse) so fingers crossed and good luck to all your kin xox
-
Just when you think you got it all under control…bang ! nanoparticles, doh!
-
she has a touch of nana belly going on there..
-
Seems so , David, & slouching as well.
She usually looks classic. This outfit is so unflattering.
Like Madonna, she’s trying too hard. They have nothing to prove to anyone.
That is the very worst pix of a usually divine dresser.
Have never liked blace lace unless it’s in lingerie.
Those are still the old ‘hot pants’ from the 70’s……that should stay in that era.

grrr….where are the libras of the fashion industry!? I miss old world elegance and feminine beauty. T_T I agree pegasus, them pants need to go back and stay back where they belonged. I almost cried when Katy Perry launched her career and brought high waisted bikinis back in vogue!
Those tights are lovely, and have so much potential to be coordinated beautifully, but goodness, someone dress that girl properly!
