Lily Allen - A Face of Chanel

The Lily Allen Chanel ads have been running for some time now, but they still haven't lost their Old Hollywood charm. The style is simple, with little to no background and always black and white. The ads, shot by Kaiser Karl, look almost Audrey Hepburn-esque, with the addition of aviator glasses.

The print ads I have seen have the photo on one side of the spread, with a simple and small logo on the other. With Chanel, less is more, and this rolls over into their advertising. The bags are prominently displayed without looking like a catalog.

Lily Allen has already become her own fashion legend, as well as a music and acting guru. Who could be better for young women to look up to and model themselves after than a down-to-earth, slightly foul-mouthed star with an eye for style?
