Since Emmanuelle Alt became editor-in-chief of French Vogue, many have criticised her for being cold and inaccessible but in a recent chat with Grazia she seemed surprised that people now perceive her in that way.

“Well, it’s my way of being! I didn’t [have to] force myself! I love to dance, I love to sing. I don’t think that I’m inaccessible?” she said when asked about that video she did to celebrate the relaunch of Vogue.fr. “‘I think we shouldn’t take this [fashion] too seriously. In the end, it’s just clothes and we’re in a very privileged world.” She continued: “I didn’t really [have to] think about it too much, because you know, I love Wham and George Michael!’ she said. She chose that particular song because it was easy: “the set is just white, with white clothes…and it’s easy [to sing] for French people.”
