Another speculation confirmed - Alice Dellal is in fact the new face of Chanel’s new campaign for the Boy bag. The luxury brand just released an image of her shoot with Karl Lagerfeld where Alice looks significantly more feminine and sophisticated than her usual punky, fishnet-stocking clad self.
The updated Chanel Boy handbag takes on a new decor with Chanel’s signature quilted leather which like Alice is a more elegant and feminine form for a bag that’s known for being edgier and more masculine with its glazed leather finish.
“[Karl Lagerfeld] had a crush on this unique, charismatic young lady, who is both a model and musician, during a photo shoot several months ago,” Chanel told WWD. “This previously unforeseen alliance finally became self-evident. Alice Dellal represents the perfect incarnation of all that is unique about the Boy Chanel handbag collection, which strives [to be] far from conformist notions of femininity.”
The campaign probably won’t be released until sometime after January but if there’s one thing we’re certain about it’s that this alliance between Lagerfeld and Alice is one that will continue for many, many years.
