Big congrats are in order for badgal RihRih. Dior recently confirmed that she will be staring in the spring 2015 installment of their campaign, Secret Garden. The move makes Rihanna the label’s first black spokeswoman, ever. More after the click.
Come Spring 2015, Rihanna will join the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Marion Cotillard, Natalie Portman, supermodel Carmen Kass, Estonian model Tiiu Kuik, and legendary actresses Marilyn Monroe and Grace Kelly, as a Dior girl. The fashion label confirmed recently that Rihanna will star in the fourth installment of its Secret Garden campaign, making Rih the first black woman to do so.
The Secret Garden campaigns are centered around short films, all showing Dior women wearing the latest collection and walking through the Palace of Versailles and its elaborate gardens. The installment featuring Rihanna was shot in Versailles, France, by Steven Klein and the brand confirmed that “film and print versions of the campaign are scheduled to run this spring.”
This is a major move for the singer, who now has two big apparel brands behind her. I reported not too long ago that she was named a Creative Director at Puma. Get it!
