“It was incredibly glamorous and fantastic. I don’t think I’ll experience something like that again in my lifetime,” said the Oscar-winner of filming the commercial, which debuted Sunday night at www.dior.com.

Adding to the surreal glamour are digital recreations of the late Grace Kelly, Marlene Dietrich and Marilyn Monroe. The three movie legends just happen to be hanging out backstage of the Dior show when Theron storms in, every inch the movie star — giant sunglasses and all — throwing her purse at the first person, place or thing she sees. Then she’s stripped, be-gowned and thrown down the runway to Gossip‘s “Heavy Cross.”

In other words, it’s pretty fucking epic. Click through to the next page to take a look at the mini movie and let us know what you think! [WWD, Telegraph]

All images taken by Lagerfeld

From WWD, “Karl Lagerfeld is heading to Versailles next month, but for a photo, not a fashion show. The peripatetic designer is exhibiting 40 large-scale black-and-white photos he took of the legendary French chateau in the apartments of Madame de Maintenon. The display opens to the public June 10 and runs through Sept. 7.”

Too bad we were just there two months ago, well with this and the invite to the Louis Vuitton Factory I think I might just be booking a ticket back to the city of lights.
