Lara Stone Set To Replace Madonna For Louis Vuitton

 

While Isabeli Fontana is the face of Louis Vuitton's Cruise 2010 ad campaign, shot by Patrick Demarchelier, WWD is today reporting that Lara Stone is set to replace Madonna as the face of the brand for Spring/Summer 2010. The campaign will be shot by Steven Meisel, in NY.

The quick post additionally report that the brand has "tapped nightclub impresario André Saraiva to take photos of his groovy friends in Vuitton’s funky and colorful sunglasses for next spring and summer. The likes of Vahina Giocante, Annabelle Dexter-Jones and Olivier Zahm posed for Saraiva at sunset at The Standard hotel in New York for a party-all-night vibe."

Covers

 

We hardly look at Harper's Bazaar's covers or editorials, so a little love from us today. There are 3 interesting covers for them.

-UK Harper's Bazaar Dec 09 showing Victoria Beckham by Alexi Lubomirski.
-Australia Harper's Bazaar Dec 09 show Miranda Kerr by Simon Lekias.
-And For Nov, Russian Harper's Bazaar is showing Constance Jablonski. You can view the editorial here.

While we're talking covers, we also have online magazine Antler, with issue #5, out for your free viewing; shot by Amy Victoria Wakefield. It's not as strong as their previous covers but enough to showcase here.

We also have two new covers of 160g magazine issue #2 (out soon on their site). The male cover is of Paolo Anchisi shot by Eric Sposito. And the female is of Katrina Hunter shot by Ben Cope.

She's a darling of Marie Claire (see here), but her mark is everywhere in fashion. In November 09 alone she's set to appear in Vogue Mexico Nov 09; US Elle Nov 09. Elle Norway Nov 09, amongst others. But for now The Harper's Bazaar editorial.
