Three bags, three different names, three different muses. Alice Dellal, Kristen Stewart and Vanessa Paradis feature in Chanel’s latest bag campaign.
Tag: Vanessa Paradis
This is pure nostalgia for me. I sort of grew up with Vanessa Paradis, and followed her career along the sideline over the years. Last Thursday she performed at the Amsterdam pop temple Paradiso; her first and only concert in The Netherlands.
Ever since I saw a quircky looking 14-year old girl sing about ‘Joe Le Taxi’ I knew she wouldn’t be a one day fly. Many years later, and many songs later, French singer/actress/model Vanessa Paradis releases a new album.
Style is an expression of individualism mixed with charisma. Fashion is something that comes after style – John Fairchild.
Vanessa Paradis is Vogue UK’s next covergirl for the July issue – wearing a sequinned Chanel jacket we can only dream about – photographed by Mario Testino. Vanessa is part of the Ageless Style Issue which shows us lots of looks for all ages. We like.
Johnny-boy would rather stay in Paradis(e):
“Marriage is really from soul to soul, heart to heart. You don’t need somebody to say, okay you’re married,” the actor said. “If Vanessa wanted to get hitched, why not? But the thing is, I’d be so scared of ruining her last name. She’s got such a good last name.”
Vanessa Paradis goes techno girl for the French Elle, and she’s wearing Triwa watches! A good choice from the stylist because the juicy-coloured watches make a nice match with Vanessa’s comfy and sporty look. If you weren’t familiar with the Swedish watches yet, they have such broad colour and design-range, that they can match about any style.
Ever wondered why the split between the teeth of Lara Stone suddenly became a charming beauty-flaw? She wasn’t the first designer-muse with that special mark. A long time ago some girl just popped out of nothing singing a song called ‘Joe le Taxi’. Her name was Vanessa Paradis. Not a striking beauty, but a particular little bird with a good bonestructure and a split between her teeth. Then the bird got caged by Jean Paul Goude to promote the Coco Chanel fragrance. In 2003 she promoted the collection of Chanel Cambon bags, and now this succesful singer, mother, actress and wife of Johnny Depp will show off her typical smile to promote ‘les rouges’ Chanel: the gorgeous red lipsticks of the brand.
