Here is our first look at Natalia’s new role as ambassador for Hear the World, a global initiative dedicated to raising awareness about the issue of hearing and hearing loss.

What is Hear the World?
Hear the World is a global initiative by Phonak to raise awareness about the importance of hearing and the consequences of hearing loss – a problem that affects more than 16% of the world’s population. The initiative addresses the social and psychological effects of hearing loss, and provides information on prevention and solutions. World-renowned performers support Hear the World and share Phonak’s commitment to raising awareness of hearing and hearing loss throughout the world. They have all been photographed by Bryan Adams, the official photographer for the initiative.

After the Louis Vuitton Fall 2010 runway show with superb model casting, anything was possible. The runway was full with the likes of Alessandra Ambrosio, Bar Refaeli,Adriana Lima, Jessica Stam, Coco Rocha, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Catherine McNeil, after all!

So of course, the campaign choice would prove to be an interesting one as well. For the Fall 2010 campaign, Marc Jacobs chose a duo: Christy Turlington and Natalia Vodianova. Though Natalia’s involvement could have been guessed – she sat front row after all – it’s Christy that’s the surprise.

Steven Meisel will shoot the campaign next week, so the real question is, will this be a photoshoot on the street as well, complete with paparazzi?

The Sochi 2014 Ambassador programme welcomed three new members today, who will each become a ‘face’ and key advocate of Russia’s first Winter Games.

Special diplomas were presented to top Russian fashion model, Natalia Vodianova, who has fronted campaigns for Calvin Klein, Louis Vuitton and Chanel, and is also a keen philanthropist; legendary Cross-Country skier and quadruple Paralympic champion Sergei Shilov; and singer Diana Gurtskaya.

Rumours have been circulating for a while now that Natalia Vodianova has been lined up as the new face of YSL. Now we can reveal that not only are the rumours true, but that she has also landed two other major campaigns for next season.

It seems that the Russian beauty is quite in demand on the Spring 2010 ad campaign circuit. She is set to replace 1990′s super Christy Turlington as the face of Yves Saint Laurent, and will apparently also star as the face of next season’s Givenchy ads. Plus, she has been signed up by friend Stella McCartney to front the stylish British brand after she made her only catwalk appearance in September for the label.

And there’s more. Natalia will continue to be the face of Guerlain, will model the much coveted lingerie that she designs for French favourite Etam and will also be the face of Calvin Klein fragrances.
