Louis Vuitton Announce Cate Blanchett As Their Newest House Ambassador

In a statement, Louis Vuitton noted that the collection embodies five themes: liberty, fantasy, grace, radiance and destiny, values chosen by Artistic Director of Watches and Jewellery Francesca Amfitheatrof. Blanchett – in her elegance and stylishness – would be one of just a few actresses who exemplify all of these qualities, and the timelessness of the Louis Vuitton woman.

“I am extremely excited to have this opportunity to collaborate with Louis Vuitton – a truly iconic House with an enormous cultural reach,” Blanchett says. “To wear the magnificent pieces created by Francesca Amfitheatrof is a bedazzling pleasure, and Nicolas Ghesquiere, as ever, amazes and inspires me.”

The campaign will launch on July 2.
