Elle Fanning Sparkles for Paco Rabanne’s Fame Fragrance in Pink Dress & Hidden Heels

Elle Fanning is taking a bold step forward — and literally so, as the face of Paco Rabanne’s new fragrance, Fame.

In the ’60s-inspired campaign, Fanning lounges and smiles at the camera in a pink sleeveless Rabanne dress. Lining its upper bodice is ruffled pink chainmail trim for an added flourish. Though her heels weren’t visible, the “Great” star likely donned a pair of the label’s own chain or paulette-accented sandals — or simply opted to go barefoot for the occasion.

“Thrilled to reveal I am the ambassador for a new fragrance!!! FAME by Paco Rabanne. Honored to be a part of a brand as iconic as @pacorabanne,” Fanning exclaimed in the caption.

The bottle for the fragrance — inspired by having “15 minutes of fame,” per WWD — is equally bold, sculpted into a metallic gold robot wearing high-heeled boots, jewelry and sunglasses — plus a chainmail link minidress, complementing Fanning’s own.
