While most celebrities only enjoy a season or two fronting any particular fashion house, it seems Marion Cotillard is still flavor of the month at Christian Dior. This image shows her latest advertisement for the embattled fashion house.
The fashion label has been the subject of speculation of late as it keeps mum on the topic of John Galliano’s replacement. However this ad shows no signs of the strain. Instead it’s cool as a cucumber, with Cotillard pouting provocatively as she clasps her Lady Dior bag.
The actress might have fronted many Dior campaigns over the years, but she’s showing no signs of fatigue. In fact I think she looks fresher than that color-blocked crocodile handbag! The retro effect really doesn’t make the most of the exotic skin, as it appears gimmicky and trend conscious rather than classic.
In contrast Cotillard looks timeless in her black cap-sleeved dress, matching dark fingernails, and blood red lips. And of course the Hollywood sign never ages either! Photographer Steven Klein captured the shot at a Los Angeles house designed by the famed architect John Lautner.
What do you think of Christian Dior’s latest advertisement? Is Marion Cotillard still the right woman for the job?
