Downton Abbey alum Lily James has just been announced as Burberry’s newest face for their fragrance line. This is her first global campaign with the heritage British fashion brand; and she follows in the footsteps of Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne.
Even though the campaign won’t be released until August, James said “I am thrilled to be officially joining the Burberry family. I am so proud to be British, so it really means a lot. Shooting my first campaign was so special – I don’t want to give away too much but I had a lot of fun showing a different side of myself…”
Lily landed the role as face for My Burberry Black for her sophistication and and charm, for the “intense and sensual” new fragrance, and she’ll be starring in a film and photo series shot by Mario Testino, which debuts in the summer.
Look out for the beautiful campaign this summer!
