I love it when someone who’s not a Teri Hatcher or Kate Moss lands a advertising campaign (Teri Hatcher because she’s the new face of Badgley Mishka – yuck).

• Julia Restoin-Roitfeld, daughter of French Vogue’s Carine and the face of Tom Ford’s Black Orchid, has been named face of Eric Villency’s new denim line. The advertising campaign fuses design, art and fashion and see’s Julia modelling the funky Restoration of the Monarchy collection. “What I love about her is her authenticity,” said Villency, the president of Maurice Villency Inc.

• Mean while, Heidi Klum is the new face of Jordache jeans, following in the footsteps of Brittany Murphy and Elizabeth Hurley. “We are excited to be working with Heidi Klum,” Liz Berlinger, president of Jordache Enterprises, said in a statement. The Fall 2007 ads were shot by Brett Ratner and features Klum wearing just a pair of Jordache jeans. Does she have a thing for stripping off lately or is it just me? [The Daily]
