‘French women have
incredible style and confidence. Mireille is an inspiration and her book is a
must-read for any woman wanting to look better and ultimately feel more
beautiful.’ - Bobbi Brown
From the author of
the worldwide bestseller French Women Don’t Get Fat, the ultimate guide
to the secrets of French women’s enviable ability to age better than anyone
else.
With her signature
blend of wit, no-nonsense advice, and storytelling flair, Mireille Guiliano
returns with a delightful, encouraging take on
beauty and aging
for our times. She provides advice, personal stories and humour while sharing
well-guarded secrets French women know
about looking and
feeling great as the years progress.
‘Many books talk
about “aging gracefully”, but I don’t like that expression’, says Mireille.
“Aging with attitude” is what I believe in,
and it’s a
different approach to aging well.
‘It is a
multifaceted, holistic approach from the inside out, not just outside in,
looking at skincare, diet, style, grooming, medical interventions and miracles,
exercise, friendship, romance, anti-aging recipes and more.
‘This book was
very personal to me. I want to know how to attack aging so to enjoy it to its
fullest. And I knew I was not alone. I was not thinking so much about living a long
time, but rather about looking good and feeling healthy in the decades to come.
So while I pulled together my ideas over three years, I can say I researched
the book over a lifetime.’
For anyone who has
ever spent the equivalent of a mortgage payment on anti-aging lotions or
procedures, dressed inappropriately for their age, gained a little too much in
the middle, or accidentally forgotten how to flirt, here is a proactive way to
keep looking and feeling great, without declaring bankruptcy or resorting to
surgery!
Mireille Guiliano
is touring to New Zealand in early February. She will speak in Auckland (3/2),
Wellington (4/2) & Christchurch (4/2).

Veuve Clicquot and former President and CEO of Clicquot, Inc. (LVMH).
Recognised as “an ambassador of France and its art of living,” by the French
daily Le Figaro, USA Today further dubbed her “the high priestess of French
lady wisdom.” Her book, French Women Don’t Get Fat: The Secret of Eating for
Pleasure, in which she recommends bread, Champagne, chocolate and romance
as key ingredients to a balanced diet and lifestyle, captured the imagination
of an overweight world tired of yo-yo diets and became a runaway best seller
around the world, hitting the top of the best seller charts in many countries,
including the USA, where it was number 1 on The New York Times Bestseller list.
It has been translated into 37 languages. She followed it up with another
best-seller, French Women for all Seasons: A Year of Secrets, Recipes and
Pleasure.
A
native of France, she grew up amidst cooks, chefs and restaurateurs in
provincial France and was educated in Paris, where she studied French and
English literature at the Sorbonne and languages at the Institut Supérieur
d’Interprétariat et de Traduction. Mireille holds the French equivalent of a
master’s degree in English and German and certification as a
translator/interpreter. She also has a command of Italian and several other
languages.
She
first arrived in America as an exchange student in Boston and returned for good
early in her professional career. She currently lives in Manhattan with her
husband, Edward, president and CEO of New York Institute of Technology, and
