It’s a girl for Julia Restoin Roitfeld

Stylist Carine Roitfeld's daughter Julia and her model boyfriend welcome their first child together, a daughter named Romy.

Carine Roitfeld has a lot of strings to her bow - editor, stylist, model, make-up collaborator - and now she can add grand-mere to her CV.

Her daughter, Julia Restoin Roitfeld gave birth to a baby girl thought to be named Romy yesterday. It is Julia, 30, and her partner Robert Konjic's first child, making the new arrival the first grandchild for former Vogue Paris editor Carine, who is set to stage the Cannes Film Festival's first-ever fashion show next week.  

"We are delighted to confirm that Julia and Robert have had a healthy baby girl," the model's publicist told Vogue.co.uk. "Both mother and daughter are doing very well and resting at home."

The choice of name, which was revealed by shoe designer Brian Atwood on Twitter, is most likely a tribute to Julia's style icon, the actress Romy Schneider - in 2011, she appeared in an Schneider-inspired editorial entitled 'A Woman Like Romy' in an issue of V Magazine that was guest-edited by her mother Carine. What we can be sure of is that thanks to the fashion-saturated gene pool (fashion editor mother, fashion designer father and ex-model/fashion editor grandmother) from which she was spawned, she's going to be one stylish little tyke.
