Scarlett Johansson's New Moet Poses

Filed under: Wine

When Scarlett Johansson was named as the face of Moet & Chandon in 2009 she posed in a golden gown. Images from the 2011 campaign have been released which show the effervescent blonde in posed on a ladder in a robin's egg blue evening gown surrounded by champagne flutes. The images shot by photographer Tim Walker were taken at Trianon, an impressive residence built by Jean-Rémy's Moët between 1805-1817 on the Moët & Chandon Estate in Epernay, France. The campaign consists of three photographs which will be used in print, outdoor and online advertising.

The Most Brilliant British Fashion Photographer
You've Never Heard Of

We look at lots of photo books in this line of work, but we've rarely been as impressed by one as much as teNeues' massive new Tim Walker monograph. The fact that the Brit fashion photographer's name is not as well known as that of some lesser talents must surely be corrected by the barrage of surreal, sublime images in Tim Walker: Pictures. A former assistant of Richard Avedon's, the 38-year-old obviously learned from the master, but he could hardly be called an Avedon imitator with his flair for elaborate, dreamlike tableaux. An exhibit of Walker's work opened in London last month, but for the $125 this vibrant volume costs you can be transported much further afield. No expense was spared for the extravagant British Vogue holiday shoot pictured above; the magazine even bought the vintage Rolls-Royce in case Walker had to destroy it in order to get the photo just right, as he never uses digital manipulation in his work.
