The full video of Roxane’s screen test for the Costume National Pop Collection perfume is now up on Vogue Italia’s site. Watch it at the source link below! Video captures are also available in the gallery.

After the launch of the perfume Pop Collection creative director Ennio Capasa, in collaboration with Costume National, revives the art of Andy Warhol.

“I find the montage too tiring… I let the camera run so I can look at people as they really are.”

Each one lasted around three minutes. Andy Warhol positioned the different people passing through his Factory against a black background, told them not to move and to keep looking in the same direction, and them left them in front of the camera. These were his screen tests, creations which are mini-films or portraits.

This technique inspired the French director Bertrand Le Pluard, who has created 10 screen tests to celebrate Ennio Capasa’s Pop Collection and the special event Vogue Fashion’s Night Out.

To stay as close as possible to Andy Warhol, the director used film for the screen tests, giving them a timeless dimension – when you watch them, it’s impossible to tell when they were taken.

The films feature ten unconnected people brought together by their shared passion for art and Costume National: Roxane Mesquida (an actress), Alizé Meurisse (a writer and artist), the band Our Mountain, Andy Bradin (an artist), Tamara Kaboutchek (an emerging singer), Cyril Duval (a pop artist), Jeanne Damas (a young fashion blogger), the band Mother Feather, Kira Lillie (a jewellery designer) and Mae Lapres (an emerging icon).

Also, the Gossip Girl season premiere is just over two weeks away now! Some promotional photos and a video have been released, but sadly none feature Roxane’s character Princess Béatrice yet. Episode captures may be a few days late, as I have school and work to contend with, plus it’ll take a little longer to find a high-quality version of the episode, but I’ll try to get them up quickly.

Roxane linked via her Twitter account a video of screen tests for Costume National’s Pop Collection perfume. Read below and see a few caps of Roxane’s segment in the gallery!

Take two creatives and a cast of 10 artists contributing to their project.

In other words, take the Creative Director of Costume National, Ennio Capasa, and the French film director Bertrande Le Pluard, who have together created a project involving, among others, Roxane Mesquida (an actress), Alizé Meurisse (a writer and actress), the band Our Mountain, Andy Bradin (an artist), Tamara Kaboutchek (an emerging singer), Cyril Duval (a pop artist), Jeanne Damas (a fashion blogger), the band Mother Feather, Kira Lillie (a jewellery designer) and Mae Lapres (an emerging icon).

The aim is to celebrate their shared passion for the art expressed through the creation of the Pop Collection perfume.

You can see the results of the project on 9 September online at vogue.it.

I have a nice update today. Big thanks to reader Belle for sending these in! We have our first glimpse of Roxane as Sylvie in her upcoming movie “The Most Fun You Can Have Dying” — she looks great! Hopefully a trailer might follow soon.

I found a great little video of Roxane at her L.A. hotel being interviewed by Philippe Besson as part of TV special “Los Angeles Dernière.” It’s fun to see her at home rather than your standard ‘tell me about your latest role..’ TV interview. See it embedded below and the screencaptures in the gallery!

Roxane has a page in the newest edition of Paris Match to promote her role on Gossip Girl, featuring a brand new photoshoot. I’ve added it to the gallery, take a look!

Nothing terribly exciting today, just a belated addition! Roxane was featured in the December 2010 issue of Rolling Stone Italia. The shoot is stunning, but sadly we don’t have any images of accompanying article that came with it. If someone has scans of the complete feature they can donate, it’d be appreciated!

I’ve finally added photos from an event I missed back in February, the Film Independent 2011 Directors Close Up. Roxane attended with “Kaboom” director Gregg Araki as well as co-stars Thomas Dekker and James Duval. Enjoy!

Hi, everyone. Apologies for people who wondered where the site were this past week or so — due to some personal issues, I needed to take a short hiatus. However, any hiatuses in the future will most likely be “open” (i.e. website content still accessible) and I do have a friend who has volunteered to update in my stead in that case. Also, I do have an update for today! Roxane attended the premiere for the final season of HBO television show “Entourage” in New York last week. There were only a few snaps of her taken on the red carpet, but she looks great.

A couple other final notes: the gallery has a new lovely new design, and Roxane herself has a Twitter account: @roxane_mesquida. Only 38 followers so far — get following! We still have our own Twitter account that you can follow for site updates at @parfaites, though depending on just how much new traffic we get when “Gossip Girl” airs, I may start a separate one.

Roxane had a busy day yesterday, also attending the Cinema Society screening of film “Snow Flower and the Secret Fan”, looking fantastic in a bold green dress. Enjoy the photos!

As an aside, we’ve now well surpassed the 150,000 hits mark! I remember when I first started this page how big of a number 1,000 felt. Thank you to new and returning visitors alike for helping to make this a success!

Roxane was spotted on the Gossip Girl set again yesterday, July 13th, this time apparently shooting a scene with her on-screen brother Prince Louis (Hugo Becker.) There are a few snaps of her in what looks like her own street style, and I have to say I actually like that outfit better! Big thank you again to the great Gossip Girl site YouKnowYouLoveMe.org.
