Modern French Style Icons

"Here's how to keep them straight," writer Andrew O'Hagan explains. "Claire has the beautiful alien look, with long legs and translucent skin. Virginie is the classic French girl with an open, sweet face and strong eyebrows and blond tresses that she likes to stroke. Jenna is the rock-and-roll one: smoky eyes and a natural sense of wanting to make way for the talents of others. Prisca is classic '40s: dark hair, green eyes, and skin that looks like it's had skin-care products patted onto it since she was the merest baby."
