Very introspective. Very necessary. Love
o em geeeee, what a beautiful, takes your breath away, makes your heart beat faster kind of sky. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen something that beautiful in person. <3 I hope your weekend is full of fun!! :D
Eh oui, beaucoup de looks de rue ont perdu de l’authenticité et de la spontanéïté…C’est bien dommage!
Bonne analyse de Lauren et Scott :)
J’ai adoré le défilé Dries VN …
Et bravo pour ce tout premier (Parisian) Pardon My French ! Mention spéciale pour tes lunettes, très jolies, et qui te vont à ravir.
Des bises !
Wow, it looks amazing so far!

Et ben voilà!! “Le changement c’est maintenant”?!Tu es TELLEMENT plus belle comme ça Garance, les cheveux au vent (et désolé si le commentaire sur tes cheveux tirés en arrière t’a peiné). Crois-en mon humble expérience et ma parole de frisée, plus on les détache, plus on s’y habitue, et plus on les aime. Ce qui ne veut pas dire qu’on ne peut jamais les attacher, hein! Et le contraste entre la couleur de ta monture de lunettes avec celle de tes cheveux, j’aime beaucoup.
Autrement, le défilé Dries Van Noten m’a laissée sans voix. Ce mélange subtil d’imprimés et de matière, c’est d’une beauté. Par contre, j’ai du mal à croire que c’est une collection printemps-été… Il s’en dégage une atmosphère hivernal, non?
I love your films…esp. this one. It’s funny. i love the music and the cut. It reminded me of my npweekend in Pais two weeks ago. So true ewht is said about the transformation of streetstyle!

You always have such a fun glow to you! I am jealous- share your secrets please! :)
It’s called joie de vivre…!!!!
My favorite video so far. Loved it. So great for someone to call out the change in street style and have a real discussion on it. Wonderful.
BRAVO film crew par excellence! Oui les lunettes, le coiffure et tout! La question, la reponse! J’envie de ses mocassins!
Bouuuuh j’avais presque envie de pleurer (mon bouuh c’est un bouuh de bébé qui pleur hein, qu’on soit clair ! ;) ) Je sais pas mais ta vidéo était super nostalgique, peut être le côté couché de soleil à la fin je sais pas ;)
Merci pour ce joli sentiment !
I love coming in your car with you and listening in on your conversations with friends!!!!! And the Dries show was more beautiful when you could see the movement than in the pictures (and I thought it was beautiful in pictures!)!! I want to be the Spring Dries girl (sans inch-long roots).
Thank you for bringing us along!
xo,
Ali
love love love this video, my how perfectly paris suits you! so nice to meet your team and to see dries and rochas, both seriously swoonworthy as always. it’s wonderful that you featured this dialogue about street style by the people who know it best. it’s so nice to hear an honest take on what it’s become from the people who have been there from it’s naissance. team pmf forever!

Garance, t’es très belle avec les cheveux au vent!!!
Les looks de “streetstyle” sont très étudiés depuis toujours , comme Scott l’avait rappelé, mais on peut toujours croiser des filles belles et naturelles, comme toi Garance.
Lunettes et nouvelle coupe: WOW!
J’adore Scott, toujours habillé sobre et chic, et pas déguisé (comme son interlocutrice à la casquette….!)
Superbe vidéo et Paris diary!

I absolutely feel like beeing there with you. thank you so much for sharing like this with me! i really got the impression that if i would meet you in a caffee i would just sit next to you as if we where friends for a long time and it would not feel strange to me. when i recognized that it felt weird but its just because of the way you are. i do not want to go over the top but you inspire me; in my job as a fashion buyer, my private shopping routine and also in the way i look at things.
Absolutely adored this video, it was the best episode far, really well composed and conceived, really interesting. Scott has a super sexy voice. And you look bloody amazing with your hair down and these glasses. Keep the hair down more often pleeeease.

Garance, I didn’t think I could love your blog more – but here i am. Amazing job.
Gino rules!
Dries mon hero …. je le compare toujours a Christian Delacroix pour la manière qu’il a d’utilisé les imprimés et la couleur en version plus accessible certes mais c’est le même effet jamais vulgaire ou kitsch et surtout portable il est avec Stella McCartney les 2 seuls ou tu peut choper le mannequin après son passage et embarque toute la tenue ok sa marche aussi pour Isabel Marant mais la qualité chez elle est vraiment a remettre en question .
BEST PARDON MY FRENCH OF THE SEASON SO FAR!!!!!
Ok, I’m in love with your sunglasses right now…brand?? Really curious :)!
And Paris ah Paris…….that sky is so romantic….

j adore l esprit du defile chez Dries

en fait vous êtes trois autour de la table à avoir la même paire de lunettes! Dieu sait que c’est dur de trouver la paire de lunettes idéale, mais la vôtre vous fait un visage encore plus beau! (Je vous préfère même avec que sans)
i always look forward to these fabulous shows and this one in particular was absolutely incredible! totally jealous that you are living it up in paris. i wish i were there.
xx, http://wordbyjessie.com/
Beautiful beautiful video, especially the ending all in sepia! Sigh. (or rather, I die!)
Plus Scott talks! And eloquently, too. (But what was that expression on your face, and Lauren’s! Wah wah wah, you girls looked bored to death!) Interesting debate, I have no idea who’s side I’m on. As long as something creative comes of it all, why not? Who IS Lauren, by the way, besides being one of those naturally stunning blonds like the actress Julie Delpy that gives French girls such a romantic reputation?
Okay, Garance, I’m in Paris, and you’re in Paris, so my only wish is that I see you in real life! I don’t need an autograph or a photo, it would just make me sooooo happy inside if I spot you somewhere on the street!
J’adore la collection DVN et la video a travers mon Paris qui me manque terriblement.
Chere Garance, merci de nous introduire dans le monde de la mode et nous faire rencontrer votre equipe, vos amis. Je me suis habituee aux Pardon my French et j’en redemande !
What a treat! I start my day with e-mails, checking sales on my website and of course your blog I look forward to. Just in case there’s another post I check again and VOILA……A Pardon my French from Paris! How nice. What a fun team and Alice wears the red lip better than anyone.
What….no croissant? I look forward to eating them when in Paris which is not too often. You’re probably sick of them. WHO MAKES YOUR BAG?
Dries Van Noten – eclectic elegance and Rochas…..The best of the best! Yes, mixing it up is good if you have the “know how” and lastly – SCOTT SHOULD TALK MORE!

Wow super super vidéo! Very fresh!
Pas de superflu, très simple, léger, les éléments essentiels sont là, il y a quelque chose de différent dans cette vidéo, je n’arrive pas à le définir exactement mais c’est à mes yeux l’un des meilleurs PMF.
I love Emily’s style! More pics of Emily please!!!! Em, we love you!!!
J’avais un peu de mal au début de ne plus voir trop souvent de photos, il fallait se faire à une autre forme de présentation, puis j’ai pris goût à ces petites excursions et je dois avouer que là cette vidéo est vraiment superbe Garance, c’est ma préférée ! Ce Paris Pardon my french, c’est réellement comme si on y était, et c’est fabuleux de nous faire partager ça ! Et quelle joie de te voir les cheveux libres, cela te va à ravir !
Great Movie, I’am bloggueur about design, but this short inside movie describe very well one day of the fashion week. The movie is clean but keep all moment like a “RAW”.
By the way very interesting analyze from Scott and Lauren. But any way, I think that we will keep love Street style.
Furthermore, I think that to keep real street style it will always be possible to go outside in a big city or anywhere at anytime not specially during the fashion week to shoot real style. Is’n it ?
(Sorry for my english)
Yeeeeahh the extra(S) ! you remind me so much of Juliette Binoche in this video !!! must be Paris ; )
Great coverage. So true about street style… sigh.
You-re doing an excellent work with these videos…. I-m already addicted!!
http://lifeincurl.blogspot.com
Very nice video!
I loved the last conversation. I think that some people felt like they have to dress up, even if excessively, to feel like they exist, like they belong to the fashion world. There might be some kind of pressure around the show, some people must feel as if they don”t get shot, they are nobodies… I even got people asking me to be shot…
You can see sometimes people staying there just waiting to be shot, they are not photographers, they are not going to the show but they are dress like it’s Christmas and New Year together. I find it sometimes weird, sometimes sad… I don’t really understand what kind of pleasure they get from that but I guess that they need to be there , but also to have the proof that they were there so they can get the approval of their peers, friends or families… This is the Facebook “look how cool I am” era.
Other than that, regarding the bloggers getting clothes from brands to be photographed in during the shows, or even money to do it. I guess that if a blogger gained a certain celebrity status, it is only logical that they behave like celebrity and are treated like one. Therefor no wonder they get endorsements from brands the same way celebrities do.

Great video!! Interesting conversation about street style!!
Si joli, cette vidéo! You and Scott are so similar with the glasses on!
And I loved that conversation on the car…interesting. And Scott has a very nice masculine voice :)!
Bisous! Ana

Enfin, les cheveux lâchés! Ça te va, Garance, mais tellement, tellement bien! Ton visage est plus doux, et … tu fais plus parisienne. Voilà, ça doit être ça. Ils sont beaux, tes cheveux, dommage de les brider tout le temps. Laisse-les vivre!
Un-seul-mot: VIVANT !!!
Garance! Tes cheveux sont vraiment bien dans cette vidéo! quand tu dis que tu cherches des alternatives à tes chignons, c’en est une bonne ;)
Ça aurait été encore plus cool si ton Pardon My French de Paris était fait en Francais!
Mais cet épisode, avec celui de Jenna Lyons = my favorite!!
Thank you for letting us discover in this video one of your qualities: the serious and intense way you look at things!
The atmosphere of this video was so lovely! You look beautiful in your new glasses and with your hair down! :)
What a beautiful ending to the video!!
I’ve loved it so much!!
Thanks :)
Ca me donne envie de pleurer tellement Paris me manque! J’adore tes vidéos. Merci Garance!
It is lovely to see Scott, what a nice voice.
Your videos are evolving so beautifully. I love the direction you are taking them in.
I think this is the best one that you’ve done yet. Love your narration. Bravo.
Oh, Pairs.. gush.
so honest, so fun and smart. i felt like i was in the car with the three of you! garance you are so bare on camera.. you show your whole self. merci!!
I love this video! It’s so beautiful and I love the glimpse of life in Paris and how you start your morning. Love it!!
J’adore tes vidéos Garance, tu dégage une fraicheur incomparable !

Pure Joy!:) I’ve missed lots of your summer posts and videos, while was having my vacation, and you know, now I’m delaying & waiting for the day, a weekend day, when i take a sit and watch everything missed post by post, taking my time and that pure joy:) class!
xoxo
Beautiful video. LOve the show by Rochas, de red/purple flower cape is amazing. Also love the thing Scott says on this video. It’s such a shame so many people only dress for the cameras nowadays and not for their selves. But still love the photos he makes ;) And yours too of course!
http://www.creativityandchocolate.blogspot.com
Exactement la vidéo qu’il faut pour débuter le wiik and. Nice to meet all the staff :)
love, love and love this video! first of all because it shows a sneek of the city I miss so much, secondly because you show beautiful dresses as the showed at Rochas (superb!). And atlast, because you talk about street style with akind of reality that is quite strange between the people that are so invloved in that world.
Thanks again for your work!
kisses from Barcelona!
Je suis d’accord avec Scott. Les gens se sont toujours habillés pour aller aux défilés. La seule différence, c’est qu’aujourd’hui on s’intéresse à eux, à la rue, à la mode de rue.
J’aime tes lunettes.
Très belle vidéo.
Your videos are always right on the mark and getting better and better all the time.
Such great work! x
Ouaiis !! tu es enfin à Paris ^^
Une conversation très intéressante en effet, dans la voiture !:)
encore une fois, une vidéo géniale. bravo ;)
En toute objectivité de parisienne, c’est la plus belle vidéo de ton équipe. Les plans, les couleurs et l’histoire… j’adore !! Merci.
Really nice to see you without the bun :) You look great, Garance. This video also made me want to go back to Paris (went last october)! Have a great weekend. Love, Sandra
Nice conversation at the end of the video. I could not agree more with Scott’s point. Street style is not an inspiration anymore; all those nice outfits are more than calculated. We -aka designers, workers in creatives fields, etc.- have to look somewhere else to find authenticity. Tommy Ton and pairs are doing a great job indeed. This kind of street is just not as raw and strong as we expect to be.
Garance: I really love your glasses, are they from Cutler and Gross? They suits you as a glove. Your are really pretty with them on.
Dries Van Noten seems to be really laid-back even before his show. What a great vibe.
VRAIMENT chouette “Pardon my french”…mode, opinions, images, j’espère que tu vas nous en balancer d’autres pour cette fashion week Parisienne!!!
j’entendais des nanas hyper lookées hier ds le métro dire qu’elles espéraient se faire shooter par des “street photographers” : Cf la fin de ce clip.
Grosses bizettes, continue à nous faire apprécier l’univers fashion de ton côté!!
Cat
Juste un mot pour toi et toute ton équipe :
MERCI !!!!!
Cesse-ton un jour d’être Parisienne? :-)
Mais tu es SU-PER-BE avec les cheveux lâchés, les reflets chocolats, naturels qui jouent avec la lumière. C’est ça, la style de la française, la parisienne chic et belle sans en avoir l’air!!!;-)
Pour être honnête , le petit chignon choucroute au dessus de la tête, je n’aime pas du tout( désolée…:-( ) . Cela durcit l’expression..Peut-être que c’est une obligation dans le milieu de la mode qu’est ta vie, un mimétisme nécéssaire, comme un signe de reconnaissance entre gens du même monde.? Bref, laisse ta chevelure libre :-))))
Merci de faire partager ce moments intimes et les défilés…c’est magique et émouvant….:-)
Garance, tes cheveux sont parfaits dans cette vidéo! Détache-les, c’est plus classe et naturel qu’un bun :)
Apart from the noise issue when you interviewed Dries, I think that was one of your best Pardon my French episodes. It was introspectve and wistful and all about change really. Goodness, in your house to have Scott’s accent and yours together, it’s a dream….
Grazie Garance! Thank you for being so delicate and yourself everytime you take us with you…
Garance, I love, love, love your “pardon my French” films. I hope to travel to France next year with my husband and children and feel like I know Paris a little better thanks to your films.
Wow, tu commences à attrapper le truc pour la vidéo ! Ca devient vraiment génial, bravo.
Et tes lunettes te vont mieux quand tu as les cheveux tirés (si ça peut te donner une excuse pour ne pas lacher ton éternel chignon ^^)
Loved the video Garance. Always cool and sharp and o so you.
Check me out, I’ve just posted a new blog post I’d love to share with you. http://www.19rivoli.com
Hope you enjoy,
Much love,
James
Là je ne comprends pas, pourquoi la vidéo n’est-elle pas en français quand les personnes savent parler français?! tu pourrais très bien faire une traduction sous-titrée en anglais…
Je me suis marrée toute seule devant mon ordi en regardant la montre de Tim se détacher lorsqu’il fait un thumbs-up !!! Ta vidéo est géniale comme toutes les autres et tout ce que tu fais. Je ne mets pas souvent de commentaires sur tes articles mais je les lis tous religieusement et par rapport à ton article sur les changements du blogs, je voulais juste te dire que tes illustrations, tes articles, tes photos et tes vidéos sont trop cool et ce que j’aime le plus, c’est trouver un peu de Garance dans tout ce que tu fais; c’est pour cela que tes lecteurs te suivent et qu’ils te suivront quels que soient tes choix ! Merci pour tous les bons moments que tu me fais passer grâce à ton blog et tout ce que tu me fais découvrir.
Love this video ! c’était plein de sentiments et c’était très immersif ! J’adore ta voix douce qui nous emmène/invite dans ton univers… je crois que toi et ton équipe avez trouvé une vraie signature dans la réalisation de vidéos pour blogs. Bravo !
Garance, je t’aime tellement mieux les cheveux détachés… et je ne suis pas la seule à le dire ! Les cheveux attachés te vont bien également mais tu le fais trop souvent ! Essaie d’alterner ! (enfin je dis ça, mais en même temps, tu fais ce que tu peux, j’imagine, comme la plupart d’entre nous !)
Allez, bisous de Bretagne
Je suis d’accord avec Scott, tout les acteurs de la mode ont toujours “paradé” durant les shows mais cela restait de “l’entre soi” aujourd’hui avec les blogs et cie c’est un peut les “jeux du cirque”. Tout monde veut son petit quart d’heure de gloire. Bah, c’est pas bien méchant…parfois drôle, parfois pathétique, ça dépend de l’humeur.
your videos are really well made and also is a way to be in the fashion week.
You should make all the videos longer than 6 minutes.
Quelle belle vidéo !!
Le show Dries Van Noten était superbe :)
xx.
Super les lunettes !! c’est comme si tu les avais toujours eu, je les avais à peine remarquée au début jusqu’à que je me dise “waw mais elles sont trop cools ces lunettes!”. Quant aux cheveux je répète les commentaires précédents, TOP, ça donne envie d’avoir les cheveux bouclés ;).
Enfin je finis ton apologie par un grand merci pour ces vidéos où l’on peut suivre tes péripéties. Pour ma part c’est la meilleur des pauses quand je travaille mes TD pour les facs et que les théories de Pausanias ou de Pline, etc ne tiennent plus mon esprit de divaguer.
Un des plus beaux vidéos. J’ai vraiment apprécié cette douceur, cette lenteur et d’être témoin de cette discussion…Ça fait du bien.
Je suis une anthropologue après tout ! :)
On t’a déja dit que Scott ressemble à Lance Armstrong. Je le trouvais trop canon quand j’étais plus jeune et ce timbre de voix ahaha so sexy !
Une des plus belles vidés en passant !
Lovely video. It’s fun to see you in action.
Cheers!
http://marcelosalvadorphotography.wordpress.com/
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!
Enjoy your videos very much Garance. They are quite inspiring. But I always seem to find your Paris clips to have a little bit more depth to them and a little bit more inspiration…looking forward to your vids for the entire Paris week.
J’aime plein de choses de ce vidéo. Garance, c’est sympa de voir que tu as toujours un style si simple (dans le bon sens) et pas alambiqué une seconde quand tu assistes aux défilés ! Et les gros cheveux+grosses lunettes, ça te va bien. Puis la discussion post défilé dans la voiture, et cette shot finale où on te voit filmer le soleil qui apparaît à l’écran quelques secondes plus tard… C’est super.
your glasses look so cute on you!!
First, let me say, you look great in glasses and nice to see your hair down.
Dries is very nice. I met him at a shop here in Boston when he was promoting his book on his fashions.
So well done! With this video, it feels as if the Pardon idea has found its footings. Its dynamism is still unique and viewers feel very present, yet there is a heightened combination of dialogue, city shots, and of course FASHION.
(the final scene’s conversation is a summation of why ppl love your blog…or at least why i love it, i want to hear the insider’s opinion, not views based on projections from the industry)
Bravo to you and the GD Team!
Very honest dialogue……instead of street style…take a shot of me……circus like….especially in the last few season all these prints…it’s a bit dizzy…..I love the his and hers specks…..your happy personality reflects your team. bravo….
L’avant derniere image, celle ou tu resplendit dans ton element de photographe, d’observatrice, en short, illuminee par les derniers rayons de la journee, est ma preferee. Merci ma grande! Je suis tellement fiere de toi!
Prenez garde! Every field will brand itself out of existence!
I am still here!! I am only able to afford two indulgent purchases this fall….. one being IM Blackson boots in burgandy….ooh lala….swoon!……and after year I build my wardrobe with pieces that speak to me, and through very key pieces my own style has evolved. I have a signature style for sure but it doesn’t come from buying everything I love (or wish I could buy)…..it comes from making art in my closet everyday with what I have. I love the Street Style conversation! Was unexpected but wow….so true….really resonates as you look at all the photos being taken. Thanks to Lauren and Scott for keeping it real for all the ladies who are not Anna Dello Russo or Emmanuelle Alt. :)
LOVE the Dries show!! Stunning!
Is that Bill Cunningham at 4:12 (in a blue jacket, of course)? :)
Thank you Garance for another lovely episode.
The two shows are my favorites for SS13!!
You look amazing and so natural.
Watching the episodes brings a smile to my face and my heart!!!
Merci…
Bisous
dreamy and funny and quirky – I loved it, my favourite video so far !
aahh c’est cool de voir l’équipe ! I looove Ginooo ! Et il fait quoi dans l’équipe ?
Parfaite video!

http://lauralexo.blogspot.com
Tellement sublime cette vidéo <3 j'aime !!!
I agree with her definition of streetstyle.
I miss Paris… I live sooo far away!!!! And whoa your hair looks great like that!!!! Loose and freeeee!!!!
Très jolie vidéo. Je rêve ou vous êtes rue St Dominique ? Jeudi soir j’ai croisé passage Nicot de longues créatures un peu gothiques, shootées par un photographe qui était, je crois bien, Mr Scott… J’habite juste à côté. Merci pour ces belles images de “mon” Paris.
Garance, I’m in love with your glasses!!! Who makes them?
Garance! I need need need need (well, not really but I would like very much) the brush you are using for the loose powder! Please let me know what kind of brush it is, thank you! :)
Hello, Garance,
I become emotional when I watch your movies, in a good way! Your movies and articles are wonderful because they were created by someone who is doing what they were made to do, and that is beautiful. Thank you so much for all of your hard work and perseverance, you inspire me to work at what I was made to do too.
OK, I know I’m commenting all over the place, but I think I figured out a way to make your front page a bit less jumbled looking.
The default number of feature articles means that the “categories” (and ads and stuff) on the right column don’t match (in screen inches) the articles and “hand picked” portion of the main column – leaving a big white gap at the bottom of the main column. If you allow for more articles in the main column, they’ll match and it won’t seem like there’s a bunch of excess *stuff* on the right side. Also, people might be more likely to make it to the content on the bottom row of the page.
Just a thought!
Salut!salut! par rapport a la conversation dans le taxi je pense que ce n’est pas grave c’est juste un effet de mode qui resulte des blogs et bien sur que ce genre de phenomene devait exister, ca reste anthropologiquement interessant et finallement en tant que photographe il s’agit d’être la ou on nous attend le moins….et ca marche;)
Scott a décidément une très belle voix. Il a l’air génial, posé, calme, viril quand même.
franchement, belle vidéo et belle fin! Je l’ai regardé de nouveau.
Wow!!! You make chaos look so cool and inspiring. Most people don’t have a clue how much is involved in bringing just the basic fashions to the streets. Let alone the show stoppers. I salute you.
That conversation in the car has to be just publicised more, it’s true, so very true what they both say. In their own right. Awesome video. Cheers from Milan.

I wonder sometimes why I love your blog so much, then it hit me!
It’s because when I visit it, it’s like I’m coming to see an old friend I can’t wait to chat with.
<3
This video has so much inspiration and fun in it from all the cameos and chats to the fashion shows …it’s the best so far.
Dries and Rochas are my 2 favourite shows sofar .
Dries is supreme, wish I could wear his creations top to toe all day every day…. absolutely wonderful creations.
J’ai adoré cette vidéo, merci Garance et toute l’équipe !
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh big congratulations to the PMF team– this video shows so much maturity, PFW has really come into its own. This video to me is perfect… Fashion, interview, Garance’s voice, Paris… we are transported into another world and inspired… I really feel that PFW is on the forefront and poised to change internet video… (what about your beautiful illustrations as animation???? I could see that being a very interesting direction/elaboration of your experimentation….)
Merci pour cette vidéo où tu nous amènes avec toi, ca me fait rever j’ai l’impression d’y etre !
i am a student living and researching in mexico city. there is a long history of people trying to determine “authenticity” within the Indígena communities of Mexico. at a certain point the argument of authentic and inauthentic is exhausted. people slip in and out of authenticity. also authentic is in many ways a category and categorizing “authentic” is imposing an outsiders view on a people.
so in “street-style” you will simply exhaust what is and isn’t “authentic.” through sites like sartorialist i have been influenced in how to style and through experience i have had to find out what styles fit my body and personality best. it may include a big brand here or there but it rarely carries the message of class or money aspirations such as Ralph Lauren. I would hope it represents form and personality.
living in mexico city is incredible because while it is cosmopolitan there is very little representation by street-style bloggers. very little dressing up for anyone except for the people around you rather than a still photo that will travel. i have a brand names that might stand out in europe – like rick owens – but here it stands only for it’s form and the style it imparts.
This is very well expressed, especially the last paragraph…I totally agree living in Cape Town it’s the same.
the most beautiful day xx

Garance, thank you so much for inviting us into your Paris world. It’s such a beautiful city and you shoot it so well, and it was so nice to meet your team as well as the people you work and mingle with in the fashion shows. The Dries collection was simply stunning, and both retro and modern at the same time, if that makes any sense!
Also I really enjoyed hearing the conversation in the car with Scott and Lauren. It’s so rare to hear Scott speak in a video so it was great to hear his articulate opinion on street style.
Merci infiniment, tu me donnes l’envie de retourner visiter la belle ville de Paris :)

ps: I love you and Emily’s glasses…may I know what their make is please? :)
Garance,
I have been following your blog for about one year..it is the first time that I write a comment. I just thought that the video is great, and I love the way you have become a great reporter without loosing your spontaneous aproach. I like how you have built a professional team, that supports you, but everything is so well done that it seems to be natural and easy going.
It is your attitude what I like about you, what I think that brings the new vision and concept to fashion and Haute Couture.
Congratulations.
should be more like ‘pardon my english’;)
Dear Garance,
You look absolutely beautiful with your hair styled like that!! So naturally chic, loved it.
Hi there Garance and team,
I just had to comment today… I love coming to your blog and you guys keep amazing me because you always show the artistic and inteligent side of fashion and it uplifts my spirit. Thanks.
Love.
I love your look – especially your hair – in this. I love to watch people listening to what other people have to say, the reflection of the thougts in their faces. Pardon my French is getting always better (pardon my German ;-).
What Alexandra said. ^^
Tu es encore plus jolie les cheveux lâchés ! Et ces lunettes éclairent ton visage… Fraîcheur !
Every time I watch “Pardon My French” I get a bit carried away, it’s so inspiring and it’s everything that I imagine fashion world to be. Enjoy your Paris, I bet you’ll have tons of fun!
And by the way, you look really good with those glasses :)!

how do not love you ? ;)
Mais quelle splendide vidéo!!! Depuis le temps que je te suis, c est (je crois) la première fois que je poste un commentaire. Et c est cette vidéo qui me pousse à t exprimer mon bonheur en la regardant.
Il y a quelque chose de tellement détaché qui s en dégage, de cool, de vivant,de pétillant, ça donne envie de bouger, de prendre son appareil photo et de regarder le monde par son objectif.
Et que tu es belle Garance, tellement souriante, drôle, tu nous communiques tes passions et ta joie de vivre.
C est incroyablement bien filmé, les images sont très belles, le montage et les conversations sont super bien coordonnés. Et c est tellement intéressant!!
Même si j adore toujours autant les précédentes vidéos, celle-ci à quelque chose de diffèrent qui donne envie de la regarder maintes et maintes fois, et sans que cela ne lasse.

Wow, a pink Paris! I like the last shot, and I love this video for some reason. I also appreciate the runway videos, as I really see how the clothes move when worn. Thanks for sharing this with us.
Bravo bravo! Is there any way to know where Emily’s glasses are from? Thank you!
They are Warby Parker!

Je vois que j’ai été écouté à propos du retour sur le blog quand on clique sur une image et qu’on souhaite revenir la ou en était.
Cimer la fougère,
Johanna,
Garance, j’en profite ce soir pour te (j’ai le droit ?) le dire, j’ai 18 ans et ça fait maintenant au moins deux ans que je suis ton blog que j’adore, le meilleur en matière de mode selon moi, je regrette juste une chose : n’avoir pas acheté “ton” Vogue PARIS à temps … ;)
continue comme ça et je te souhaite encore tout le succès que tu mérites !
Hana

ciao! :***
Thank you very much!
loved this video. not sure how i feel about the changing street style… everything is getting a bit too costume-y and too choreographed. there are few people who actually wear crazy things every day—when the rest try to imitate them, it just feels very forced and i can’t help but think, “what a poser…” it shows if it’s not from within. hopefully people will start to relax and stop trying too hard and their innate style will come through.
Bravo. Beautiful.
A work of art. This video is so beautiful and insightful!
Tes cheveux et la voix de ton homme !
Sérieusement Garance, les cheveux lâchés te vont tellement bien !
I’m only halfway the video, but I want to say that you, Garance, look so beautiful! I love it when you wear your hair like this. You look so happy and so elegant! X
And it was a lovely video. The images, the atmosphere, and also really interesting conversations. :-)
Garance!
I usually read you blog daily, but have been so busy that I’m only just watching this now, on a sunny Sunday afternoon in Melbourne, Australia. And I must say, along with Dries being my FAVOURITE collection this fashion month, this is my favourite video you have ever done.
Thank you!
I really appreciate the turn in conversation in the car. It’s a great topic – authenticity of street style! Thanks for the insight into this private conversation!
This is my first time visit at here and i am in
fact happy to read all at single place.
