Art Director and Model

Monaco to you is ?

Still a place I have to visit as crazy enough that I have never been!

How you feel about collaboration with APM Monaco?

It't quite minimal. I don't wear many pieces but I like to wear when there is a story. I usually wear earrings as I feel they brighten up my face the most.

What profession did you want to go into when you were a little girl?

A few but the top one for many years was oceanographer. I was fascinated with ocean after watching LE GRAND BLEU for 100 times and wanted to do a job that allows me to be the big blue as well. Though things went to a different direction. I still like staying at the sea as it is my happiest place in the world.

A few must dos in Paris and New York?

I left Paris 5 years ago so I like to come back as a tourist and do all the touristic things like going to have a croque monsieur at Café de Flore, or taking my daughter to the carousel by the Eiffel Tower or on a Bateau Mouche along the river. Before, I used to drove around the night when I lived in Paris with my vintage Mini.

Now I lived in New York, I always love walking around as there are so many new things to see from time to time. My favorite thing to do in there is going for a long run around Central Park. It's always a great easy escape from the city life within the city. I am a more outdoorsy person than what people would think! Another favorite thing is to go hiking to Upstate New York, it is just an hour from New York to there. I feel visitors are less aware of everything around the city! It's a shame!

The secret to your personal glow?

I sleep a lot! I try to go to bed shortly after putting Romy to bed, I know it's boring but I need my 8-hour-sleep. For these 10 years, I have been visiting my facialist, Naehi who owns Mist Beauty in New York. I guess I owe my glow to her a lot!

What advice would you give Romy if she wants to follow in her gradmother's and your footsteps into the world of fashion when she grows up?

I have no idea what she will want to become and don't want to influence her in any ways. I really want her to do exactly whatever she want, and be happy, and just be there to support her choice. She is pretty stubborn but confident, so I am not too worried for her whatever she decides. Right now she wants to become a president!

What is next fro Julia Restoin Roitfeld?

I am really trying to develop my own clothing line. I know it sounds cliché but to be totally honest. I like things that are very simple and timeless, I feel that is really different these days to have something with nice quality, affordable, chic and basic...

Your 2019 for you will be?

Ohhh who knows!

Favorite quote you live by?

#lessismore, that's my new philosophy!
