Alien Vampire Goddess Tilda Swinton Is the Spring Face of Nars

The divine Tilda Swinton, the most famous and beloved of David Bowie’s clones, will be the face of Nars this spring.

WWD reports that Swinton will appear in four portrait-style ads, each of which reps for a specific collection. She’ll be styled differently for each. “As an actress, she brings such strong personality to the camera,” François Nars (who shot the ads himself) told WWD. “And as a woman, she lives the experience of transformation and expression.” He added that he admires her “bold style.” Don’t we all, François?

Wouldn’t have figured the famously alabaster-skinned, cucumber-cool Swinton as the face of the company most famous for its rather obvious “orgasm” blush, but maybe they’re trying to go against type, here. Not that I’m gonna complain!
