~Evolve Everyday~

 Mumbai, November 16, 2011 – Van Heusen Woman, the modern, refreshingly new and chic brand from Van Heusen is all set to turn up the heat this winter. The most admirable women’s wear brand announced “Nargis Fakhri” as the new face and brand ambassador for Van Heusen Woman.

Van Heusen Woman, a brand which favors the confident, bold yet elegant femininity, did not have to look any further to find the right ambassador who would perfectly define the Brand’s image when they discovered the exquisitely svelte and beautiful, the bold Nargis Fakhri.

Nargis, who’s recently burst on to the Bollywood scene with Rockstar has been a New York based super-model. Nargis’ choice as a brand ambassador for Van Heusen Woman brings together key values that work in tandem. The brand is on the cusp of a steep growth and is well poised to extend its appeal to a large western-wear sporting audience, while Nargis’s career is set to take off equally well. The elegance and confidence she brings to the table is highly desirable and aspirational for today’s women. The Van Heusen Woman brand offers women clothes that are in vogue, comfortable and refreshing – while always being faithful to its core philosophy of clean lines, traditional soft and solid pastel tones, with shapes and forms that breathe easy. And Nargis Fakhri blends closely with this chic factor of the brand with her refined beauty and flawless style. The spirited personality and ­­­­impeccable charm she exudes thoroughly reflect the brand’s values.

In her first campaign for Van Heusen Woman, Nargis Fakhri will feature in the brand’s stunning range of dresses, which is the centre piece of the Autumn-Winter season.

Shot by internationally acclaimed photographer Justin Polkey, the campaign sees Nargis in a whole new avatar: a go-getter with a wardrobe to boot. In an array of sharp, yet feminine dresses, Nargis will be seen in lace sheath, stripes, animal prints, florals, paired with unlined blazers, parka jackets, suede coats, offset by oversized belts and maxi envelope clutches.
