Now that Agyness Deyn has her own Burberry commercial, it might be time for the brand to find some new British faces to pose with Lily D, Kiera G, and Georgia F.
We hear they’ve found their new girl and it’s Alice Gibb, 15, whom we’ve described as “Lily Cole with tuberculosis” and we actually mean that in a good way.
Alice is especially suited to the stark British brilliance in McQueen, Giles, and Christopher Kane collections (left), so it’s no surprise that all three used her this season (McQueen, in fact, send Ms. Gibb down the runway first).
Now we hear she’ll pose with the rest of the Burberry Brit Pack in their Spring ’08 campaign. This won’t be Alice’s first time with their photographer, Mario Testino – he shot her at age fourteen for a British Vogue spread where she proclaimed her love of ballet.
We adore redheads and we can’t wait to meet Alice in person, and to hopefully see her Burberry shots. We would also love to feed her some slivers of cake, like Mad Hatters at a tea party, but that’s another story…
