ressed up in truly chic Parisian style, French actress Sophie Marceau attended a press conference at the Galeries Lafayette at South Jakarta's Pacific Place mall on Sunday to promote her latest real-life gig as a shoe designer.
In collaboration with shoe manufacturer Villebois, the 49-year-old actress, a former Bond girl in the movie The World is Not Enough, has designed 13 pairs of ballet flats, adding a special touch to every piece.
"This totally unprecedented adventure allowed me to combine my taste for fashion and my passion for dance. I put all my energy into this collection in order to reveal the beauty, the lightness and the grace of a foot wearing a ballerina [shoe]," she said.
Her collection will soon be available for the Indonesian market at Pacific Place. At the event, actress Raline Shah expressed her excitement at meeting Sophie through her Instagram account, @raline_shah.
"Am so lucky to have been able to meet French actress Sophie Marceau and experience her energy. I grew up watching her French films and who can forget her in The World is Not Enough. An international actress that is proud of her country and with such a vibrant personality. Am inspired! Thank you for coming to Indonesia," she captioned her photo with Sophie. (kes)
