Marianne Faithfull Stars in the Latest Saint Laurent Ad Campaign

Hedi Slimane taps ‘60s icon Marianne Faithfull for his latest Saint Laurent ads.

May 21, 2014


Marianne Faithfull's personal style is so venerated in insider fashion circles that it's said to be one of the primary inspirations behind Kate Moss' entire wardrobe—Faithfull is the OG '60s It Girl, who recorded some incredible songs, dated Mick Jagger and was even somewhat of a muse to the original Yves Saint Laurent. That blend of style and rock substance makes Faithfull the perfect frontwoman for one of Hedi Slimane's campaigns for Saint Laurent, who's past selects have included Curtis Harding, Marilyn Manson and Courtney Love and Christopher Owens. You can barely see what she's wearing in the ad, but that's not even the point: you just know a cool girl when you see one.
