Jennifer Lawrence Delighted By Dior Campaign, Says It’s An ‘Honor’

Jennifer Lawrence, Hollywood’s newly crowned “It Girl,” says she is honored to be the new face of French fashion house Miss Dior’s handbag line.

Following last week’s print ad reveal of the actress modeling Dior’s chain-strap bags, the 22-year-old can be seen gushing about the brand in a new behind-the-scenes clip from the fashion shoot.

“Dior represents beauty and strength in women, and that’s how I feel when I’m wearing his clothes, it just makes you feel so confident,” Jennifer says. “I’ve always been a huge fan of Dior, and being a part of something with such an incredible history is an honor.”

In the video, Oscar winner is shown wearing pieces from Dior’s spring 2013 ready-to-wear line including a black trouser suit, a white tuxedo dress, a little black dress, Independent.ie notes.

The shoot was masterminded by Dior women’s wear creative director Raf Simons, fashion photographer Willy Vanderperre and stylist Olivier Rizzo.

Lawrence’s love affair with the brand saw her step out in array of Dior dresses throughout awards season, most recently at the recent Oscars to accept her Best Actress statuette for her performance in Silver Linings Playbook.

Unless you’re been living under a rock, most people know the actress took a tumble on the steps to the stage, but at least she did it in a strapless, blush Dior Haute couture gown.

The Telegraph reports that Dior’s eye for talent on the rise has meant no less than three Oscar winning actresses have represented the fashion house in its time — Lawrence, Charlize Theron, and Marion Cotillard.

Recently seen leaving a hair salon with newly-dyed dark tresses for reshoots for The Hunger Games sequel Catching Fire, Jennifer Lawrence is a stylish star on the move — and a grateful one.
