Emma Stone Says Being The New Face Of Louis Vuitton Is Like “Being In Pretty Woman”

Louis Vuitton has chosen Emma Stone to be a new brand ambassador for the luxury fashion house.

And with the new deal in place, the actress is set to visit the city on a regular basis to:

• attend fashion shows
• shoot ad campaigns
• as well as brainstorm with artistic director, Nicolas Ghesquière, on custom looks for future red-carpet appearances.

And while in Paris for a shoot, Stone spoke with W magazine about what it’s like being the new face of the mega-brand.

Stone talks about her very first trip to the French capital at the age of 12, and notes:

“I remember being so amazed, like, ‘We’re in Paaaris!’ Well, now we’re staying at the Ritz and it’s literally like being in Pretty Woman.”

Stone is currently ranked as the highest-paid actress in the world and expressed resistance when it came to joining a fashion house.

Stones that it had to be the right partner, under the right circumstances.

With that, W Magazine notes that it took Louis Vuitton just about a year to complete the deal with the actress.

And Ghesquière mentions his strong desire to bring Stone on board for quite some time now:

“The first name I mentioned was Emma’s, but it takes time to set up a dialogue.”

He also tells Stone during the interview:

“What I love about you, Emma, is your ability to balance. You have this femininity and, at the same time, a boyish side that’s supercool and inspiring.”

Stone also mentions that her stylist, Petra Flannery, played a major role when it came to closing the deal as Flannery has handled all of Stone’s special occasion looks, since 2007.
