Christian Dior 'Lady Dior' Handbags 2008-2014 : Marion Cotillard

[tarsha]

SHANGHAI HIGH: Thanks to Christian Dior, Marion Cotillard keeps racking up those frequent-flier miles. The latest print campaign for the ongoing Lady Dior saga — which breaks this week in Air France Madame and rolls out to other fashion titles in the U.S., Europe and Asia later in the month — has her in Shanghai. Shot by Steven Klein, the image depicts the Oscar-winning actress in another mysterious entanglement with secret agents, this time on a balcony with the Chinese city’s futuristic skyscrapers in the distance — and with the Oriental Pearl Tower prominent, its spheres covered in quilting similar to the “cannage” pattern on the iconic Lady Dior handbag, the centerpiece of the advertising effort. Titled “Lady Blue,” the campaign is the third in a four-chapter series, and will be followed by a 12-minute film directed by David Lynch that was shot in Shanghai last December. The mini movie is to debut on Ladydior.com on May 15, the same day John Galliano is set to unveil Dior’s cruise collection in Shanghai. Teasers for the Lynch clip will start running online April 20. It turns out the Pearl building is key to the adventure, as the Eiffel Tower and Brooklyn Bridge were to the first two episodes. “In the David Lynch film, Marion is reciting a poem that he wrote, and was inspired by the Pearl Tower itself,” Galliano explained. “The words and building fuse in the picture he paints on-screen. Shanghai is such a vibrant and inspiring city.” — Miles Socha

The background looks photoshopped
I bet Marion did not even see Shangai

It could well be, but Marion was most definitely in Shanghai for the shoot.
There was a picture of her on set, I thought I posted it here but I cannot find it now for the life of me.

it does look photoshopped, but Shanghai isn't known for its bright and clear skies, and that is probably why it looks photoshopped

Oh if she was really in Shangai,then the picture must be true for sure

^ Well i've learnt to never say never. Especially after we saw the behind-the-scenes vid of the Lady Rouge shoot, with Marion in front of a dilapidated old building, to then see the same image of her photoshopped into a nighttime NY cityscape.

But that looked really obvious clearly.
I think this is a much better job! Also the pic was of her on a rooftop so

It appears that there will be no more supporting images for Lady Blue Campaign.And based on rumors the 4th chapter will be Moscow...!

 

[cesarcmma]

The bags are so ugly and dated I don't see any young sane lady buying one.

 

[MarionasMuse]

I disagree with you.This bag is Iconic and Timeless.Ugly are all other bags...Ugly is for those who can`t afford it!

^ Thanks so much. Weird knowing that either this one or the other one is an obvious photoshop job. I feel like her (our) left arm doesn't belong.
