Designers left, right and centre have this season been throwing free clothes at the Art Director, Julia Restoin Roitfield, and this courtship may however have something to do with Julia being the daughter of the much-loved French fashion editor, Carine Roitfield and Christian Restoin, the former owner of the label Equipment.

Growing up in such a fashion forward environment is one of the reasons Julia is so intrigued by both creativity in the design and fashion world and possibly why she decided to begin a career in such a creative industry.
