PARIS: Britney Spears has landed her first high fashion modeling campaign as the new face of Paris-based Kenzo.
The 36-year-old singer said she had been waiting for the “right fit and the right opportunity” to represent a luxury brand.
Celebrity photographer Peter Lindbergh snapped Spears in relaxed styles that feature denim, baseball caps and florals, as well as the princess of pop’s signature exposed midriff.
The campaign is for the denim-focused “Collection Memento No. 2” that Kenzo previewed last September.
DUBAI/ LONDON: Burberry recreated a rainy London night out for its winter 2026 show this week, sending models, including British Moroccan Nora Attal, in fur and leather down a tar-like catwalk covered in puddles.
In Old Billingsgate Market, a former fish market on the banks of the Thames, a replica of Tower Bridge provided the centerpiece of creative director Daniel Lee’s seventh show for the British luxury brand.
Attal walked the runway in a long, statement coat in warm brown tones with a plush, fur-like texture and darker vertical accents running through it.

Under the coat, she was dressed in a black double-breasted tailored suit with a plunging neckline, paired with matching straight-leg trousers.
Among the runway looks were outerwear pieces including blue trench coats with ruffled collars, a check shearling jacket and a dark plum overcoat with oversized fur lapels.
In a collection meant to evoke “going out in a particularly London way,” the women wore slinky satin dresses with fur trench coats and chunky check scarves, with men in leather suits, hoodies, and motorcycle boots. Trousers and dresses featured beadwork designed to echo rainfall.
Among those walking the runway were Romeo Beckham, son of David and Victoria Beckham, and model and actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, who were reflected in the resin puddles as they walked over the dark rubber floor to a throbbing club soundtrack by FKA twigs.
Romeo wore a deep burgundy, leather bomber jacket with a plush fur collar. Underneath, a pale pink button-up shirt peeked out at the collar and cuffs. The jacket was paired with dark burgundy trousers featuring a subtle textured pattern and a relaxed, straight-leg cut.
Huntington-Whiteley wore a long, plush fur coat in deep navy and black tones, cut to a mid-calf length and cinched at the waist with a wide black leather belt. It was paired with straight-leg trousers falling over polished black shoes.
Under CEO Joshua Schulman, Burberry has refocused on its core outerwear and scarf ranges and is beginning to recover from a two-year slump in sales.
Last month the brand said young Chinese shoppers snapped up its check scarves in the fourth quarter, boosting its revenue.
