'I would like to be Jessica Rabbit, ' Victoire de Castellane chimes in
her 'So Frency, So Chic' accent, 'but I am more the stepmother of White
Snow.' How could anyone dislike the French? They make
everything seem just that little more stylish. Even the pasty Snow White.
Victoire de Castellane is a rare jewel indeed. As
Dior Joiallerie's Creative Director it's easy to see how much of herself De Castellane injects into her work (not familiar with Dior's infamous jewelery line? Think overstated cocktail rigs and cheery floral motifs). In fact, both De Castellane and her work are a zany hybrid of classic French and whimsical Japan.
