Audrey Marnay photographed by Patrick Demarchelier for LONGCHAMP's Spring 2011 advertising campaign

Audrey Marnay is the face of Longchamp's Spring 2011 advertising campaign. Chosen for her unique mix of French chic and cosmopolitan appeal, the flame-haired model-turned-actress is captured by the lens of the legendary photographer Patrick Demarchelier in a series of stunning images that evoke the Indian inspiration of the season's leather goods, ready-to-wear and accessories.
Patrick Demarchelier's luminous visuals picture Audrey Marnay against a studio backdrop of a surreally blue sea and clear sky, in sharp contrast to the raw, natural elements of the décor. In one image, Audrey stands, like a modern-day explorer, at the prow of an authentic pirogue, holding the season's star bag, the Impérial, whose soft, supple leather and intricate detailing are a testament to Longchamp's tradition of savoir-faire. In another, she sits on a wooden jetty dangling the Gatsby handbag and with the petal-print Darshan tote beside her. All the visuals feature key pieces from Longchamp's Spring 2011 ready-to-wear and accessories collection -- a lightweight parka, a butter-soft lambskin blouson, tie-dyed knitwear, leather cuffs and platform wedges trimmed with ruffles.
