THOSEPH: When Jane Birkin was commemorated at the Saint-Roch Cathedral in Paris yesterday, a group of actors, actors, and fashionistas came out to celebrate the woman who influenced the Hermes' Birkin's iconic bag. There was no such headpiece or pearl necklace on display at British funerals, unlike those at British funerals. Rather, France's fashion elite casually mixed French designer labels with dark sunglasses, kohl eyeliner, and minimal, exquisitely costly accessories. All in black, the Parisienne's favorite color. Charlotte Rampling, Brigitte Macron, Catherine Deneuve, and Vanessa Paradis were photographed L-R.

Jane, 76, died in Paris after a long battle with cancer. The fashion set of France today is arriving in the capital city to pay tribute to the actor's 'elegance and beauty.' Charlotte Gainsbourg, 51, and Lou Doillon, 40, were among the mourners, including Brigitte Macron and Vanessa Paradis. Kate Barry, a fashion photographer who died by suicide at the age of 46 in 2013, was the fashion icon and actress' third daughter. Charlotte and Lou were seen comforting each other before and after the service, with both of them appearing tearful and triumphant. Following the death of the fashion icon, many have turned their attention to her legacy, which includes her nameake Hermes bag the Birkin. After a chance meeting on a plane in the early 80s, Jane encouraged Jean-Louis Dumas, the one-time president of Hermes, to make the luxury brand's iconic – and highly coveted – bag. Jane Birkin, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and Lou Doillon were among the portraits on display. Jane Birkin with one of her iconic Birkin handbags.
