Jane Birkin

Je t'aime Jane...




One of the things about her style that has always stood out to me, like all of us, is how unfussy her outfits were. She was always wearing them and they were always filled with a "je ne sais quoi," that many, many, many of us have all tried to capture.

So natural, unplucked, and always so cool.

Such a shame. Jane was so true to herself, her style and most importantly, her beliefs. An icon. Did she ever carry any other colour of Birkin? I always just see her with black.

I love how she really used her bags and didn't worship them as precious objects. May we all do the same. RIP, JB.

Totally agree. And that is part of what made her so cool--her lived-in Bs were so enviable to me. RIP Jane.

RIP Jane Birkin, the lady whose namesake bag became the dream bag for many of us and was the icon for carrying it casually.

So true.❤️

She was so chic. A true icon. May she rest in peace.

She really used her bag as it was meant to be, a tote bag, and she had such effortless style. Hermes and all of us lost an inspiration and a true original. RIP

Really sad about the death of Jane Birkin.

Changed my avatar as a sign of respect and love for her and her style.

Effortless, chic, always with grandezza, a style icon.

I’m in Paris right now and it is surreal being here right now. RIP to
a seemingly free spirited icon.

Everyone has already voiced so eloquently the force of nature, the style the free spirit that was Jane Birkin.
She was unapologetically herself and more than that cared deeply about so much more than her appearance.
Her work with Amnesty International, for example
She was a humanitarian who used her fame for the greater good and to speak for those who have no voice.
She was amazing!
gone far too soon.
may her soul rest in peace.
