Jisoo, Anya Taylor-Joy & Willow Smith Lead Dior Beauty Campaign

Introducing the Dior Addict Glass Lipstick. Dior Beauty is expanding its Dior Addict universe once again, this time with a high-shine twist. To introduce the new Glass Lipstick, the house enlists ambassadors Jisoo, Anya Taylor-Joy and Willow Smith—a trio that captures the campaign’s glossy, high-impact energy. Positioned as a hybrid between lipstick and gloss, the Dior Addict Glass Lipstick leans into duality: saturated color paired with a reflective, mirror-like finish. The campaign itself mirrors that balance, playing with candy-coated visuals and a polished, almost liquid sheen. Behind the formula is Peter Philips, who describes the product as “a flirt between a lipstick, a balm and a gloss.” The texture lands somewhere in between—lightweight, gel-based and designed to glide on with ease, before settling into a high-shine finish that feels more treated than layered. Infused with hyaluronic acid, the formula focuses on hydration as much as payoff, promising comfort that extends beyond the initial application. The range spans 16 shades, moving from understated nudes to deeper, more saturated tones, giving the product versatility across different moods and skin tones. Packaging stays in line with Dior’s design language, with refillable gloss sticks and customizable cases that carry the house’s signature motifs—an added layer of personalization that elevates the everyday essential. The Dior Addict Glass Lipstick is now available via Dior Beauty’s official website, retailing at $48 USD.

Alysa Liu Is Louis Vuitton’s Latest House Ambassador

Bringing a touch of gold to the French house. Louis Vuitton is adding a new name to its growing roster of cultural heavyweights, tapping Alysa Liu as its latest house ambassador. Fresh off a standout run at the 2026 Winter Olympics, Liu’s transition from the ice to the front row has been swift—and closely watched. The appointment feels aligned. Known for her technical precision and expressive presence, Liu brings a distinct energy that mirrors the house’s evolving identity under Nicolas Ghesquière. In a statement, Ghesquière described her as “confident, creative, and utterly fearless,” positioning her as a natural extension of the Louis Vuitton woman. Her relationship with the brand has been building in plain sight. Earlier this year, Liu appeared front row at Louis Vuitton’s Fall/Winter 2026 show during Paris Fashion Week, before stepping out in a full look at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party—a quiet introduction to what now becomes official. She joins a tightly curated circle that includes Zendaya and Lisa, alongside athletes like Jude Bellingham and Carlos Alcaraz. It’s a lineup that reflects Louis Vuitton’s ongoing investment in cross-industry influence—where sport, fashion and pop culture intersect. For Liu, the move signals more than a partnership; it marks a new phase. One where performance extends beyond the rink, and personal style becomes part of the narrative.
