By Tanya Jensen
Dec 5, 2002/ FWD/ --- Al Pacino's virtual muse in the film "Simone," Rachel Roberts, is starring in Gianfranco Ferre's spring/summer 2003 campaign.
Recently shot in Paris by Stephane Sednaoui, the campaign tells a story that hovers between reality and enchantment, depicting scenes from urban Paris and a magical garden, in both black and white and color.
"Rachel is beautiful, feminine in a sophisticated way," Ferre told FWD. "She's both cool and sensual. In a very real way, she is...very Ferre."
The 23-year-old Canadian was an established model before her acting debut in "Simone," and her resume includes stints for Ralph Lauren, Victoria's Secret and Banana Republic.
