Willow Smith For Chanel
Willow Smith's Chanel campaign is finally here!
The budding singer and actress, 15, appears in two black and-white images modeling the French fashion house's Fall 2016 eyewear. One features the daughter of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith lounging over a white cube, wearing black sunglasses and a Chanel dress, with a Chanel wrapping ribbon tied in her hair. The other shows the teen in thick-rimmed glasses, with a belt wrapped around her neck and a tweed peace sign pinned into her dreads.
Chanel announced in March that Willow would be the label's latest model. She joins Kristen Stewart, Keira Knightley, Lily-Rose Depp and Audrey Tautou, all of whom are current ambassadors for the brand. Ms.Smith was chosen by Karl Lagerfeld himself. Willow thanked the fashin gawd in an instagram post that was captioned: "Thank you Karl Lagerfeld and the entire team at Chanel for expanding the perceptions of 'beauty' by picking me to be the new Chanel ambassador. I am honored."
Smith and the legendary designer met for the first time in 2014, when Lagerfeld photographed her for an issue of V Magazine. With recent fashion gigs that include snagging a modeling contract with The Society Management, starring in a Marc Jacobs campaign and landing her own cover with i-D, Willow is a natural fit for Chanel.
