The Coveteur P'Trique feature is a hilarious piece that shows off a reflexive sense of humor not often seen in the fashion world.

The Coveteur, a very successful blog known for profiling the closets of [famous people](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-famiglia-collection), has been drawing in big views since its debut. This time, however, they decided to profile P'Trique, a made-up persona first featured in 'Sh*t Fashion Girls Say,' a satirical [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-pups) video that went viral among fashionistas. Posing as a female style intern with a lot of attitude, P'Trique is a hysterically over-the-top character who conforms to a slew of stereotypes about the fashion crowd.

Sure to get many laughs from readers, this feature is an ingenious and innovative move by The Coveteur.
