New year, new Balenciaga fragrance campaign — or, so the bigwigs want us to believe. The fashion house released its official spring adverts for its Rosabotanica perfume featuring, yet again, Kristen Stewart.
The new ad, however, looks an awful lot like the house's last campaign (above right). Let's see here: KStew's topless, she's giving some serious sultry smug face, and colorful flowers are climbing up her body. Heck, even her beauty game hasn't changed. Wispy hair, a killer smoky eye, and the (though its gotten the grayscale treatment) same lip tone; somewhere Beyoncé's "I woke up like dih" chant is echoing.
Now, don't get us wrong here: Girl looks great. It's great to see the house stuck with her as the face for its fragrances in light of Nicolas Ghesquière's departure. Or, perhaps Balenciaga had these images on file from the earlier shoot and did some magical photo editing for the new bottle. KStew is, after all, busy with Chanel. (Daily Mail)
