This ^ is the print ad for Kristen Stewart’s latest Chanel campaign. A while back, Karl Lagerfeld made her the face of Chanel’s Paris-Dallas collection, and that campaign was a mess. But Karl liked Kristen so much, he chose her to take part in the latest Chanel handbag advertising. Kristen is one of a trio of faces, including Vanessa Paradis and Alice Della. You can see the other ads here at Chanel’s Twitter. I swear I follow fashion but Alice Della is a complete unknown to me.

Kristen models Chanel’s new 11.12 bag, which is just a slightly updated version of the classic quilted Chanel purse with a chain shoulder strap. The most notable thing about this image is probably that Kristen’s hair is totally different here. She hasn’t had a rock n’ roll mullet since she filmed The Runaways, years ago! For what it’s worth, I always thought the mullet sort of suited her, and I guess Karl Lagerfeld agreed (he shot this campaign). He must have demanded that she wear mullet-y extensions.

What else is going on with K-Stew? Well, she’s not just going to be sitting around her LA loft, working on art projects and making short films about water. Kristen signed on to an untitled drama also starring Laura Dern and Michelle Williams. K-Stew will be playing “a lawyer from Boise, Idaho, who takes a teaching job several hours from her house.” The film is set in Montana. Which means there probably won’t be a lot of pap photos. Which is fine.

Chanel also released this video of Kristen looking down and then looking into the camera. I don’t know… she’s a pretty girl, but she does tend to look pretty dead-eyed, even in motion.
