Miu Miu Has A New Face & A New Fragrance

by Stephanie Chon

On top of debuting their first fragrance, Miu Miu now has a new muse; a fresh face who is said to be, “Miu Miu personified.” Considering she wore Miu Miu head-to-toe at Met Gala 2015, it now makes sense that Stacy Martin is the face of Miu Miu Eau de Parfum. This fragrance has been long awaited and highly anticipated since 2013, which was when Miu Miu’s plans for releasing a perfume just slipped out to the public. However, anxious Miu Miu fans will have to wait just a little longer because the fragrance will be available for purchase in September.

Martin told Vogue that working with Miu Miu is, “almost like working with family.” Both Miu Miu and Martin have a common passion for the arts. Martin told WWD that she likes how Miu Miu bonds, “cinema and art. They commission short films made by women, support artists and always find new ways to mix fashion with other spheres, making clothes part of the story.” And speaking of cinema, Martin’s latest film project, Tale of Tales, will be showing at the Cannes Film Festival this week.

Martin is widely known for leading role in Nymphomaniac , but you can expect Tale of Tales to be very different as it is an adaptation of Giambattista Basile’s seventeenth-century fairytale. Yeah, I’m pretty sure Martin is going to have all her clothes on and keep the not-so-sexy sex scenes to a null for this one. But if you’re planning on attending the Cannes Film Festival and you happen to see Stacy Martin, be sure to give her a sniff. As creepy as that sounds, you never know — she might be wearing Miu Miu Eau de Parfum.
