Givenchy’s New Darling

Like it or not, the Kardashian tribe is here to stay. While the infamous Kimye couple is still making headlines for their wedding pictures, Kim Kardashian’s half-sister, model Kendall Jenner, just scored the Fall 2014 womenswear campaign for Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci.

“the @givenchyofficial campaign! thank you. YOU’RE AMAZING @riccardotisci17 (sic),” Kendall wrote on her Instagram, while revealing the new campaign, which was shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot. The ad campaign depicts Givenchy’s Fall 2014 collection in a somber yet sensual vibe, as the models are dressed with a heavy dose of leather and fur.

The 18-year-old model and reality TV star is no longer a newbie to the fashion industry. Earlier this year she was tapped by Karl Lagerfeld for the Chanel supermarket extravaganza show in Paris and just previously to this she made her runway debut in Marc Jacobs’ Fall 2014 show in New Work.

So is Jenner the new face of Givenchy? Not quite. The campaign also features Tisci favorite Mariacarla Boscono, Jamie Bochert, Julia Nobis, and Peter Brant II (Stephanie Seymour’s son). Jenner is actually shot in a corner of the frame, and with her black eyebrows muted nude, she is virtually unrecognizable.

But knowing Riccardo Tisci’s faible (weakness) for starlets and virtually anything related to the Kimye couple (Tisci is close friends with Kendall’s brother-in-law Kanye West and designed Kim Kardashian’s wedding gown), Kendall certainly is a lucky one.
