BRITISH VOGUE – Margot Robbie and Chanel have solidified their partnership with the announcement of another exciting collaboration. Having starred as the face of the winter sports “Coco Neige” campaign in 2018, Robbie is now the newest ambassador for Chanel Fragrances.

“It’s a dream to represent such a timeless and iconic brand. The history of the Chanel woman is so exciting and the brand has remained such a powerful feminine standard of style,” Robbie said of her latest role in a statement released by the brand.

Robbie has chosen Chanel for many notable occasions, such as the couture gown she wore to the Academy Awards in 2018, which was custom designed by Karl Lagerfeld and coincided with the announcement that she was becoming an ambassador of the fashion house.

The brand has remained tight-lipped on which fragrances Robbie will be fronting – or if they will be new fragrances altogether. Robbie will be in good company alongside fellow actors and ambassadors Keira Knightley, Lily Rose Depp and Kristen Stewart.

It’s shaping up to be big year for Robbie, with her turn as Sharon Tate in Quentin Tarantino’s hotly-anticipated Once Upon A Time In Hollywood out in July, and production for Suicide Squad 2 beginning later this year. Meanwhile, her LuckyChap Entertainment production company is working on numerous projects, including Emerald Fennell’s directorial debut, Promising Young Women. (source)

WWD – Just weeks after being introduced as the latest brand ambassador for Chanel, Margot Robbie has stepped in front of the lens of creative director Karl Lagerfeld to appear in her debut advertising campaign for the French luxury house.

The Australian actress has been selected as the face of Chanel’s first Coco Neige collection, set to hit Chanel boutiques in July and August in tandem with its fall ready-to-wear. The line, dedicated to winter sports and après-ski, mixes technical pieces with classic Chanel codes like tweed, leather and camellia motifs.

Robbie is pictured against a background of blue sky and clouds wearing items including a soft chunky sweater, a parka or a down jacket. The eight visuals will break from June 10 in the July editions of leading international magazines.

“This shoot was one of the greatest experiences of my career. The energy and vibe on set was so wonderful and collaborative,” Robbie said in a statement.

“One of the first things Karl Lagerfeld said to me was that we never need to take ourselves too seriously. He has such a creative mind and he knows exactly what he wants and the minute he captured it, we were moving onto the next shot. It was amazing. Karl Lagerfeld is a creative mastermind. I already knew he was a genius but to be able to spend time with him in person, I now know he is also just a wonderful human being,” said the actress, who flew to Paris last week to attend the Chanel cruise show and shoot the campaign.(source)

THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER – As if Oscar day wasn’t big enough for Aussie actress Margot Robbie, who was attending the show as a nominee for Best Actress for her starring role in I, Toyna, on top of that immense honor, Chanel announced on the same day she has become an ambassador for the iconic French fashion house.

To begin their partnership, the first-time nominee is expected to wear (she wore) a custom Chanel Haute Couture dress made by Karl Lagerfeld himself. The actress’ stylist Kate Young said on Saturday that she wanted Robbie’s look for the Oscars to highlight her youth and be “very cool and representative of her as a person.”

The intricate gown took more than 550 hours of work, according to Chanel, and is worn with Chanel Fine Jewelry as well as Chanel makeup. Said Young, “Sometimes evening gowns for the Oscars can be aging, in a way, with heavy embroidery or heavy jewelry. The embroidery on this dress is really modern and interesting.”

She also hinted that Robbie’s wearing diamonds for the occasion, “because I love the energy into big stones.” Wearing large stones, she added, can make one “look like the Queen of England in a hot second, so part of it was finding diamonds that felt cool and authentic.” (source)
