They've outdone themselves with the new Louis Vuitton campaign. I love the lighting.

EDIT:

The Newbie and the Emcee: Alan Cumming Welcomes Michelle Williams to Cabaret

• By Rebecca Milzoff

Michelle Williams gasps: “I haven’t seen a bus with Cabaret on it, and we just drove past one,” she says from her car. “There’s no face on the bus, thank God. Oh, look—there’s a Jersey Boys bus. There’s a Newsies bus! I never noticed all these musical buses!” She’s headed to rehearsal for her Broadway debut as Sally Bowles (opening April 24), and this MTA moment is one of many novel ones she’s had lately. “Every time I rehearse, there’s a tiny bubble of a breakthrough,” she says. “And now those are happening in front of people.” She emits a nervous laugh. In her first previews, she says, she’s realized “how many things you can be thinking while you’re performing: There’s a thousand people out there … Oh, I really need to tack this slip to the dress, ’cause it’s getting stuck when I lift this … Didn’t really land that as well as I did the last time. And you’re singing and you’re dancing at the same time!”

Her co-star Alan Cumming is, by comparison, an old Broadway hand. (He played the lascivious Emcee in 1998 and won a Tony.) What he’s finding new, he says, is watching Williams “become more multi*layered and fragile” as Sally—but he’s seen it mostly from the wings. “We don’t really connect [onstage]. I introduce her three times, I think, and that’s it!” Sally “exists in the real world of the play, and the Emcee is more of an ethereal presence. But they’re both hanging on in a world that’s changing.” Williams, for her part, sought out the traces of that world, traveling to Berlin’s Hotel Adlon (“Sally’s favorite place”), visiting the apartment of Christopher Isherwood (on whose stories the show is based), exploring places where “someone like Sally might have performed—which are now organic grocery stores but have a picture of Marlene Dietrich hanging in the front. We went looking for an intact ballroom, but it was more of a rave.”

OMG - great shot of Michelle and Alan! Love it.

Not 100% convinced on the LV ads. They're nice but a touch "bland" in tone; would prefer something with a bit more edge, myself.

She's also the face of the jewellery line, too! The suits at Louis Vuitton must love her.

She is getting raves for her Broadway debut! She's amazing, and she looks great. Hope she's still growing the hair out, looks like she trimmed it a bit.

Hmm I'm seeing a lot of mixed reviews for her performance. It's not surprising as it was her broadway debut and she's up against Alan Cumming's Emcee.

She looks great though.

 

[Not Plain Jane]

She does look good. Like Pixie I saw mixed reviews though.

(OMG, Love Alan Cumming!!!)

I don't like the LV dress...neither the hair

 

[tapenerd]

Not a big fan of the LV outfit, but she looks really beautiful.

 

[Alma Kemp]

It seems like that everything she does she does it well.
I would love to see that play.
Michelle and Alan are fab.

 

[LolaSvelt]

I really like the Louis Vuitton dress on her, actually.

I love her so much and she looks adorable as always but she really could have looked amazing in a princess-y ball gown. It was the perfect opportunity.

 

[tapenerd]

I don't care how simple this look is, she was my best dressed for the night. She can do no wrong! Her hair looks amazing!

 

[lvstratus]

She looks nice, but I'm so tired that she has been playing very safe with these short dresses..it's time to try something new and risky

 

[LolaSvelt]

I don't care how simple this look is, she was my best dressed for the night. She can do no wrong! Her hair looks amazing!

Agreed! She looked darling. Obviously not everyone is going to go for a ball gown, and I like that she stuck to what she loves.

 

[Not Plain Jane]

I thought she looked great too. But I have to say ... her hair is looking really over-processed.
