The epitome of Parisian cool is photographed in skateboard parks for the Glamour France Urbaine Degaine editorial spread. The whole mentality of 'look at me, but don't look at me,' is the definition of French chic. For the January 2013 issue of Glamour France, the model Romee Trouw captures the essence of this ideology.
She struts around the state park in floral bomber jackets, chunky knit sweaters, long cashmere coats and short lacy skirts. The photographer Virgili Jubero induces the stigma of French chic in each shot. The amalgamation of street style couture and fancy footwear is one to keep an eye on. The stylist Virginie Benarroch matches sweat pants with stiletto heels so a certainly fashion forward look.
