Who Knew Kristen Dunst is The New Face of Bvlgari?

You may have noticed Kristina Bravo blogged about Kirsten Dunst is starring in an upcoming film, Melancholia, but what she didn't mention was Dunst's new role as the face of Bvlgari's Summer 2011 Sunglasses Collection as well as the jewelry designer's new fragrance Mon Jasmin Noir. Of course she is also modeling the brand's latest jewelry collection, as well.

If you don't recall, I wrote about Julianne Moore modeling with lion cubs a few months back. During that time, cubs were a huge hit all over every magazine in ads and photo spreads. Now, we are seeing full grown animals on the pages, such as in the current Bvlgari ad campaign. At first, the brand was showing Dunst in sunglasses, and I personally did not know who the model was. In each issue, I would see this woman with odd lips and wonder what the significance was. In the May issues, they have finally revealed who she is: Kirsten Dunst. Wow, this was not expected at all. The actress has been nowhere to be scene in recent years. She was considered highly fashionable about six or seven years ago. She was the face of Miu Miu in the Spring 2008 Collection, then disappeared from the spotlight for a long period of time. Now, she is back shining directly in the fashion world through Bvlgari. Does this brilliant Little Women, Marie Antoinette and Spiderman star know how to make a comeback or what?

Melancholia: A Movie for the Fashion Crowd

Many iconic movies owe their cinematic appeal to costume design, such as Breakfast at Tiffany's, Almost Famous, and Black Swan. Who didn't love the ethereal dresses sported by the Lisbon sisters in The Virgin Suicides? Lars Von Trier's Melancholia feature some iconic-looking ensembles while also starring two of fashion's quirky darlings, Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg. Dunst has modeled for Boy by Band of Outsiders and Gainsbourg, other than being the daughter of Jane Birkin, has played muse for designer Nicolas Ghesquière. The dramatic sci-fi thriller is the story of the relationship of two sisters as challenged by the impending collision of another planet into Earth. This combination of romanticism and modernism in the movie's theme is likewise embodied by the costumes of the characters, which can easily epitomize our generation's fashion to movie spectators many years from now. Needless to say, this apocalyptic movie will be nothing like 2012 (What 2012 you ask? Exactly). With two fashion icons, beautiful cinematography, and an intriguing plot, what else can a fashion-lover ask for? The film comes out on May 26!
