Wasn't Karl Lagerfeld recently quoted saying he hates all children? 15 years old= child. This campaign is an insult to Frances and to those who purchase Chanel products.

she is sooooooooooo NOT cute. And every time you see her, she looks NOTHING like a 15 year old.

Congrats to her! That would be amazing..I couldn't imagine having that job in a year. Wow

She has a cute face, but no way is she catwalk material. She's like 30 lbs too heavy.

Karl Lagerfeld is renowned for discovering new faces, and I predict his latest muse will be his most talked-about yet.

The 74-year-old designer with Chanel wants to sign up Frances Bean Cobain, daughter of Courtney Love

Despite still being at school, 15-year-old Frances, whose father was rock star Kurt Cobain – famous for grunge rock anthems such as Smells Like Teen Spirit before his suicide in 1991 – has already appeared in a number of upmarket American magazines.

"She's only young, but there's a lot of interest in Frances," says a friend. "She is incredibly pretty and has the most perfect porcelain skin.

"She and her mother are having talks with Karl about Frances appearing in his next ad campaign.
"Courtney is concerned about Frances pursuing a catwalk career at such a young age, so she has been involved in all the talks so far."
Mind you, the news that Lagerfeld is so taken with Frances might come as an unwelcome surprise to po-faced actress Keira Knightley – who is the current face of the French fashion house's Coco Mademoiselle perfume.

This girl is very pretty and has GREAT style.. Check it out..

Maybe they just wanted a young girl who obviously enjoys fashion and just so happens to be a total rock heiress vs a girl known for her role in Harry Potter and dresses like she's 40?

Okay, so that was a burn. But Frances is pretty awesome! :O)

 

[i_love_yorkie]

^wow,after seeing those pics..im sure she'll be gorgeous

 

[sammydoll]

^^ yeah, the other pics posted were all a good couple years old (which is a TON in teenager time).. her style is amazing for anyone, but especially for her age. she's a natural fashionista.

 

[sammydoll]

here's another pic from her Harper's Bazaar shoot in February :O)

Honestly, unless you were on TPF, you probably wouldn't even realize it was Francis Bean. I think she has a classic look.

 

[yellowtulip]

She's different and interesting.

 

[Liberté]

If not for her famous parents, would anyone even think of her to be a model or spokesperson? Probably not. But then again, I wouldn't have picked Keith Richards for LV either.

At least they didn't pick his son or something. THat's would've been very weird.

Whatever. I'm sure she'll end up looking fine. Chanl ads don't look that differently anyways.

In some shots she looks really tiny. I may have to rescind my runway comment I made yesterday, unless its photoshopped.

 

[karo]

They made Keira Knightley look good so they will definitely make her look radiant too.

^^ Ok, so those pics definitely have me eating my words. I really hope they aren't photoshopped to death, but that said, she does look quite amazing and I think she could pull it off.
