Roxane is the model/muse for the spring/summer 2012 collection of friend and shoe designer Jerome C. Rousseau. Last year’s campaign photos were beautiful but this season’s look even better. Take a look at the first available images in the gallery!

This is a couple months old, but new to me! Website Into the Gloss has a short profile of Roxane where she discusses her favorite beauty products, plus a couple lovely new photos of her. Take a look!

Roxane Mesquida, Actress

“I’m from a very small village in the South of France, on the border of Italy. What I do the most is drink green tea, every morning, and drink a lot of mineral water—not tap water—the best is Volvic. I don’t smoke; I don’t drink alcohol ever. I grew up with my mother saying if you want to stay beautiful for as long as possible don’t do any of that, and my mom is so beautiful—she is sixty-one and she looks like she is forty-five. I am into beauty, my mom is into beauty—she puts makeup on every day. Even if we were going to a grocery store, she would put makeup on. I can’t be in sneakers and have no makeup on, and go do something outside, it’s like if I was going naked! I feel more comfortable when I feel beautiful. The worst for me is when I have been on the plane…and my hair is all dirty and your makeup ruined, and I feel like shit, and I feel like I don’t look good enough to communicate with the world. Just like when friends call up and say they are coming over, I will get ready and put some makeup on. Putting on makeup is like having a shower for me. It’s a ritual. Every day. When I pack to catch a plane I always think, ‘do I have my passport, do I have my makeup?’ If I have those two things, I am fine. [Laughs]

Thanks to my good friend Ivonne for donating this beautiful shoot of Roxane at Cannes last year! There are only two photos but they’re lovely.

I’ve added some images from the photoshoot that was in Grazia Italy back in 2010. The quality is poor, unfortunately, but it’s a lovely shoot! Take a look.

I had a few photoshoots sitting around my hard drive that I had forgotten to add, so I uploaded them all tonight. There are 4 brand new sessions, and 1 updated. Enjoy!

I’ve added another photoshoot Roxane posed for during the Cannes Film Festival while she was promoting “Kaboom.” She looks beautiful!

Here is the photoshoot used for Roxane’s feature in the Spring/Summer 2010 issue of Blast Magazine that was taken during the Cannes Film Festival. A few of the pictures weren’t featured in the magazine itself, so they’re new!

Hello, all! No big news today, but I’ve added another lovely portrait session that Roxane sat for during the Locarno Film Festival. There are almost 30 pictures in total!

Roxane also has recent features in French magazines L’Express and L’Express Styles. You can view the cute, colorful photoshoot she did for Styles and read the L’Express interview below!

Roxane Mesquida: “J’ai appris à bouger comme un animal”

Elle est pieds nus, toute menue, vêtue d’une petite robe à bretelles. Une danseuse de Degas. On s’attendait à rencontrer une déesse sombre et rock comme les personnages qu’elle incarne au cinéma. Où est passée la sorcière lesbienne qu’elle campe dans Kaboom ? Et la déroutante Sheila, parcourant les routes d’Amérique, poursuivie par un pneu psychopathe dans Rubber  ? Seule une trace de maquillage perdure : un trait gothique, qui ourle ses yeux bleu acier. “Roxane est une actrice formidable, un caméléon devant la caméra”, disait Benoît Jacquot lors du tournage, en 1996, de L’Ecole de la chair. Elle avait 15 ans. Depuis, cette passionnée d’art et de littérature a déclaré sa flamme au cinéma d’auteur. On l’a vue tour à tour dans l’univers sensuel et provocateur de Catherine Breillat – A ma soeur !, Sex Is Comedy… – ou au côté de Vincent Cassel dans l’inquiétant Sheitan, de Kim Chapiron. Star du 7e art underground, Roxane peut bien s’énerver quand la presse la qualifie d’icône rock’n'roll. Indéniablement, elle en est une.
