Lily-Rose Depp is the new face of Chanel and has shared the images from the new eyewear collection.
The 16-year-old daughter of Johnny Depp and Vanessa Paradis has been cast as the fashion house’s new campaign star, fronting its new pearl eyewear advert, shot by Karl Lagerfeld. She plays a baby doll “in a world imbued with sweetness and femininity” – there are definitely some Lolita vibes going on here.
“Lily-Rose is stunning, she’s a young girl from a new generation with all the qualities of a star,” said Lagerfeld.
Depp’s mother has a long-standing history with Chanel – Paradis has modelled for the label since 1990 and is still a friend of Lagerfeld. She took her daughter to Chanel’s Cruise show in New York earlier this year.
Junior Depp also appears in a beguiling video shot for the brand – we’ve had it on repeat for 15 minutes now. So much fantastically grumpy prettiness in one small person.
