Craig McDean, who shot the brand’s 2011 campaign, photographed Muse.
Designer and Chairman Roberto Coin said the campaign’s concept is based on nature, art and beauty.
“Set in luxurious gardens, the visuals reflect the richness and sophistication of the current collections,” he said. “By adding the stunning Arizona Muse to the landscape, it completes the perfect picture. She is the ideal ambassador for the brand and her international recognition only strengthens the Roberto Coin global footprint.”
Muse, a native of Tucson, Ariz., has been featured on the covers of dozens of fashion magazines, among them the American, Italian and French editions of Vogue. She’s also appeared in ad campaigns for brands including Louis Vuitton, Prada, Fendi, Yves Saint Laurent and Estee Lauder.
Peter Webster, president of Roberto Coin Inc., said Muse was a perfect choice for the brand as she “possesses an effortless beauty and elegance that only has been seen in such style icons as Grace Kelly and Sophia Loren.”
