Kate Moss is the New Face for Givenchy Sunglasses

Kate Moss is yet on another roll. She launched her book this year, returned to the catwalk for Louis Vuitton and signed a deal with Versace and now her second gig with Givenchy.
Photos of Moss were revealed earlier this year as the new face of Givenchy's Spring 2013 Campaign and now shes starring in their eye wear ads too.

This is the first time in 25 years that she has modeled for Givenchy. I'm a huge fan of Kate Moss and how fitting for the brand to finally use her. She looks so nonchalantly cool in this black/white photo wearing minimal make-up and messy hair. Now I need these sunglasses they look so ultra chic, with clip on interchangeable lenses giving the frames that retro look - they are available to buy on Harvey Nichols.

If you have not seen the behind the scenes campaign yet here it is. 

 Features Kate Moss, Marina Abramovic, Mariacarla Boscono, Jose Maria Manzaranes and Jared Buckhiester.
