Women We Love is a chance for us to sit down with the women in our lives whose style we love, work we admire, and heart we adore. We give them the celebrated Proust Questionnaire—which dates back to 19th-century Parisian salons—and throw in a few of our own. Grab a coffee, something to take notes with, and get to know the women we love as they ponder love, death, and the meaning of life. Without further ado, @svenjakatharinafrisch. — What is your greatest fear? Public transportation. — Which historical figure do you most identify with? Loulou de la Falaise (1947-2011). She was best known as Yves Saint Laurent’s muse, confidante, alter ego—and the virtuoso behind all his famously flamboyant accessories: towering fur toques, clanking bronze cuffs, necklaces strung with coral. Adventurousness typified not only her designs but also her approach to the art of living, in homes of distinguished pedigree in England, Ireland, France, and Italy. Her style had nothing to do with money, and everything to do with taste and imagination. — Catch the rest of the interview on The F.E.C. Diaries (link in profile page). — #thebetteryoudresstheworseyoucanbehave

Paris Bar in Berlin is more than your average French brasserie. German painter Martin Kippenberger paid his tab by trading drawings and paintings for beer and steak frites (art covers every available inch of wall). Yoko Ono, Jack Nicholson, De Niro, Bowie, Iggy Pop, Madonna, Damien Hirst, diCaprio, Jeff Koons, and Yves Saint Laurent (to name just a few) have patronized @parisbar152 since the 1950s. The pricey food isn’t nearly as good as the staff pretend...but you get the steak frites regardless. Bowie swore they were the best in town. — #thebetteryoudresstheworseyoucanbehave
