PHOTOS: Vanessa Paradis Shows She Can Make It On Her Own
It's been a good few months for Johnny Depp's former flames. First, Kate Moss releases a book and becomes more ubiquitous than Starbucks. Now, Vanessa Paradis has been tapped for a pretty major modeling gig with H&M.
The actor's former partner was tapped by the global retailer to be the face of its Conscious collection -- you know, that "exclusive" eco-friendly line that Amanda Seyfried and Michelle Williams wore last year. We've come to know the French model (and singer and actress) as Karl Lagerfeld's girl, since she's the face of Chanel's Coco perfume and Rouge Coco lipstick. But this mass market campaign doesn't seem like such a bad gig at all. Who knows? Maybe she got to meet Beyonce.
“I like being part of something like the Conscious collection at H&M,” the 40-year-old said. “I try my best to shop consciously, and vintage is very much part of my wardrobe."
Ms. Paradis split from Depp after 14 years together in June, but she doesn't look the part of a sad, moping ex to us. In fact, she looks pretty great. There's even a video for the campaign that shows Vanessa rocking big waves, her signature gap-toothed smile and the sustainable line's khaki gear like a pro. Too bad we'll have to wait until the new collection hits store in March to get the same look...
