TOM FORD Beauty signs Academy Award-, Golden Globe- and Tony Award-winning actress Angelina Jolie for its TOM FORD Runway Lip Color campaign, “lensed by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, a cinematic homage to feminine beauty and its power,” says the Estee Lauder Companies, Inc. brand. Launching on 3 September, the campaign features images and video showing Jolie studying for a role, “a character that loves the camera almost as much as it loves her.” The campaign is a “portrait of a woman who makes everything in her gaze her own, drawing confidence from the power of her signature shade: 16 Scarlet Rouge,” the company says. The new Runway Lip Color contains a hydrating complex that drenches lips in rich, fade-resistant color, the company says. Rolling out in September, the range features 18 shades, 10 existing and eight new. Lauder completed its acquisition of Tom Ford Beauty about a year ago.
