Having been in the spotlight for over 50 years, Jane Birkin refl ects on her style legacy, namesake Hermès accessory, and new favourite pastime—facial gymnastics.
Jane Birkin is quite the conversationalist. She laughs easily and often while discussing a range of topics, from her upcoming tour with the Orchestre Symphonique de Montréal performing Serge Gainsbourg songs as “the closest she’ll ever come to starring in a staged musical,” to how her Cannes red carpet look this year (a Saint Laurent tuxedo suit) included men’s trousers that are “three sizes bigger because the boys have gotten very slim… or the other way around.” She is also charmed by the custom Saint Laurent collar that former creative director Hedi Slimane made for her bulldog, and is thankful that “he didn’t brand it; that would be too posh.”
