Selma Blair - Chanel Vision S/S 06 Campaign

CHANEL'S NEW FACE
SELMA BLAIR is the new face of Chanel. The actress, who is currently in New York shooting Purple Violets with Ed Burns and Debra Messing, has been dressed by Karl Lagerfeld on numerous occasions. She wore two of his dresses for her wedding – a pink single-shouldered one for the ceremony and an identical black one for the party – and now he has photographed her for the new Chanel Vision ads. "I have a lovely relationship with Karl," she told WWD. "It's different to be shot by him. I'm so comfortable in front of him. Sometimes when I work with other photographers, they say, 'Give me more Selma, more, more.' But they don't really know who I am. With Karl, he's capturing something that's more – my personal flaws, the way I am as a girl, not a model." (December 1 2005, AM)

[ChanelAddicted]

She may be a great actress, but I don't think of her as a style icon... I don't think this is a good idea. Disappointed a little now

Blair: new face of Chanel

LONDON – 'Cruel Intentions' actress Selma Blair has been signed up to be the new face of Chanel.
Blair has been shot by Chanel's chief designer Karl Lagerfeld for the series of print ads promoting the the fashion house's new range of sunglasses, Chanel Vision.
Blair, who also starred in 'The Sweetest Thing' alongside Cameron Diaz, is frequently snapped wearing Chanel frocks and even chose Lagerfeld to design her wedding dress last year.
She also confesses to be a fan of the enigmatic designer and photographer.
"I have a lovely relationship with Karl. It's different to be shot by him. I'm so comfortable in front of him. Sometimes when I work with other photographers, they say, 'Give me more Selma, more, more.'
"But they don't really know who I am. With Karl, he's capturing something that's more -- my personal flaws, the way I am as a girl, not a model," the actress told Women's Wear Daily.
Blair is currently filming 'Purple Violets' with 'Saving Private Ryan' actor Ed Burns and 'Will and Grace' star Debra Messing.
The actress joins a long list of high-profile stars to feature in Chanel campaigns including 'Moulin Rouge' and 'The Others' star Nicole Kidman, who was the face of Chanel No 5 in the most expensive ad to date, directed by Baz Luhrmann, and supermodel Kate Moss.
The Chanel Vision ads are to be unveiled next year. source: Brand Republic UK

What's up with Selma Blair getting all these campaigns... first Miu Miu and now this...

 

[KhaoticKharma]

Why do we have models these days if designers are only intrested in mediocre and mildly attractive actresses?

 

[kaschemme]

[LoveMyBoots]

Can a mod change this to Selma Blair for Chanel Visions instead of the S/S campaign? Thanks.

 

[poesy]

 

[JRSlims]

although I dont like her at all, the ad doesnt look that bad...

 

[lunabella]

i think designers like her because she is really thin like a model, and she has a quirky personality. . .

 

[yourbestfriend]

I think she takes great photographs, but I do wish they used a model instead. But I must say, her campaigns have been good.

 

[LoveMyBoots]

It looks satisfactory, but I detest those Miu Miu ads.
