Lily Allen is the New Face of Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld Confirms

Our Lady of Drunken Ruckus, Lily Allen, has been dubbed the new face of Chanel’s handbag campaign. Rumors that Allen has gone to work for Karl have been circulating for a few years. In November of 2006 she was said to be meeting with Lagerfeld for a 2007 campaign.

Lily has become a walking advertisement of the label, decked from head to toe in Chanel on several public appearances lately. She also sat in the front row at the Fall 2009 Runway Presentation. Karl Lagerfeld himself has finally confirmed that she is the new face of the handbag campaign code named Chanel Coco Cocoon and is due to start shooting next week.

Per WWD:

“Karl Lagerfeld has cast another surprising personality for his next Chanel handbag campaign: Lily Allen. “She’s fun,” enthused Lagerfeld, who plans to turn his lens on the British pop star next week.”

Meh…why not.
