Christy Turlington is Face of Yves Saint Laurent for Fall 2009
Christy Turlington is the face of Yves Saint Laurent's new fall/winter 09/10 campaign. The campaign was designed by Stefano Pilati and photographed by Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin.
The Telegraphreports that Christy Turlington first appeared as the face of Yves Saint Laurent five years ago. They also note that the original supermodels hvae been making a comeback lately.
Turlington most recently fronted the YSL campaign five years ago. The new photographs have been released in a week which also saw the original ‘waif”, Twiggy, announced as the returning “face” of Olay, more than two decades after she was first photographed for the brand.
Once a household name, Turlington was one of the original “supers” all known simply by their first names – Linda, Christy, Claudia (Schiffer) and Naomi (Campbell) et al; all of whom have begun building up their pension schemes with a return to the forefront of lucrative advertising contracts and magazine front covers.
