Film Meets Fashion: 17 Directors Who’ve Shot Fashion Commercials



13. Jean-Pierre Jeunet

Jeunet reunited with his Amelie star Audrey Tatou for a Chanel No. 5 spot of his own. Here Tatou boards a train accompanied not by a garden gnome but rather a dreamy male model (upgrade) who just can't resist her scent. Look for a cameo from Amelie's wicked greengrocer as the ticket agent.




14. Darren Aronofsky

Prior to getting down with Jennifer Lopez and Kohl's, Aronofsky cast Black Swan star Vincent Cassel in his ad for YSL Nuit de l'Homme, and worked with Jessica Biel and Pharrell Williams for Revlon's "Hypnoteyzed" commercial.




15. Luca Guadagnino

After watching I Am Love, we'd have thought that director Luca Guadagnino only had eyes for Jil Sander and Fendi. In 2012, however, the Italian filmmaker teamed up with Armani for "One Plus One," which captures an impossibly chic bizarre love triangle.




16. John Cameron Mitchell

The star and director of Hedwig & The Angry Itch is now going the extra mile with directing gigs for Dior, from Marion Cotillard's campy "L.A.dy Dior" spoof to Jude Law's latest outing for Dior Homme Sport.




17. Joe Wright

Chanel continued its tradition of reuniting filmmakers with their leading ladies by pairing up Keira Knightley and Atonement/Pride & Prejudice director Wright for the Coco Mademoiselle ad. Nice to see these two breaking out of the period film genre with this sexy biker babe romp.
