Introducing Fashion Week Guest-Blogger Catherine Malandrino

Acclaimed French designer Catherine Malandrino, known for her ethereal, romantic approach to fashion, will be blogging for PAPERMAG throughout Fashion Week. Here is her first installment.

It was a great day… Odile Gilbert was a genius and Tom Pecheux was very creative. My friend Selima (from Selima Optics) came for a therapy moment, and I finally realized the vision that I carried for the last six months -- clothes, hair and make up. Jon James (my casting director) found me an exquisite Australian who I thought was Siberian named Laura. "You must be cold,” I said to her, and and responded, “ I am burning hot in Australia." Then I finished my day with champagne and friends.
