Emilia Clarke Beauty Update: 'Game of Thrones' Star Is The New Face for Dolce and Gabbana Alongside Co-Star Kit Harington
Emilia Clarke has been chosen as the new face for The One fragrance by Dolce & Gabbana. The “Game of Thrones” actress is set to launch the luxury brand’s latest eau de toilette in September.
According to Vogue, filling in the role that was previously taken by Gisele Bundchen and Scarlett Johnson, Clarke was greatly praised by the designers behind the Italian brand. “Emilia Clarke embodies perfectly the Dolce & Gabbana woman: she is radiant and lively,” Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana shared. “Her personality and natural beauty will capture the essence of this new campaign: joyful, spontaneous and full of life. She is The One!”
Together with a photo of Emilia Clarke from the Dolce and Gabbana ad that was posted on the brand’s Instagram account, the designers wrote the following caption: "Emmy nominated actress @emilia_clarke will be the face of Dolce & Gabbana The One fragrance starting September 2017, launching the new Eau de Toilette.”
While the Dolce & Gabbana ad is Emilia Clarke’s first fragrance campaign, the Emmy-nominated actress also appeared in past advertisements for Dior Jewellery and was chosen as the May 2015 cover of Vogue. Interestingly, New York Magazine reported that her “Game of Thrones” co-star Kit Harington was also selected to become the face for the male version of The One fragrance, previously filled in by the likes of Matthew McConaughey.
Designers Dolce and Gabbana shared the reasons for choosing Emilia Clarke’s “Game of Thrones” co-star by praising Harington not only for his young and charming looks but also for a “rich personality.” Earlier this year, Harington was seen filming his Dolce & Gabbana fragrance campaign in a balcony in Naples. Both Emilia Clarke and Kit Harington are set to reprise their roles as Daenerys Targaryen and Jon Snow on HBO’s “Game of Thrones” season 7 premiering in July 2017.
