Estée Lauder has signed Stephanie Seymour as a spokesmodel to represent the brand in global advertising campaigns.
“Stephanie is the ultimate modern beauty icon,” said Estée Lauder Global Brand President Jane Hertzmark Hudis. “Beautiful and accomplished in fashion, entertainment and in life, I am thrilled to welcome her to Estée Lauder.”
“I am honored to be part of the Estée Lauder family,” noted Seymour. “As a young girl my mother had a dream for me and that was to be an Estée Lauder model! So this is truly a dream fulfilled.”
Seymour is described as being one of the top models in the world for the past two decades. Born in San Diego, she received her first break in modelling after appearing on the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine.
Since then, she has appeared on hundreds of magazine covers such as Interview, Vogue, Elle, GQ, V Magazine, Numero, Harper’s Bazaar and Cosmopolitan, and been photographed by the likes of Patrick Demarchelier, Peter Lindbergh, Steven Meisel, Tom Munro, Terry Richardson, David Sims, Mario Sorrenti, Mario Testino, Juergen Teller and the late Richard Avedon.
Seymour is also the longtime muse of fashion designer Azzedine Alaïa, and has represented the world’s top design houses, including Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Versace, Marc Jacobs, Alessandro Dell’Acqua, Salvatore Ferragamo and Jason Wu.
As an actress, Seymour appeared on NBC’s “Law & Order” and played the role of artist Helen Frankenthaler in the 2002 film “Pollock.”
