New Delhi, Jul 14 (IANS): American model Taylor Hill has been announced as the new brand ambassador for international cosmetic brand Maison Lancôme.

At the young age of 20, Hill has already participated in campaigns and runway shows for the most famous fashion houses. She also joined the very private circle of “Angels” of a famous American lingerie brand, which instantly made her one of the best-loved young women of her generation.

The 20-year-old says she is excited to join the brand, and it's a major step in career.

“I am very excited and honoured to join Lancôme. I love the vision behind this feminine brand. This new role of ambassadress is a major step in my career, a dream that has become reality,” Hill said in a statement.

The brand is also pleased to have her on board.

“We are delighted about this new collaboration with Taylor, who represents a modern Lancôme, in harmony with its time, with a subtle mix of sensuality, ingenuousness and sweet yet striking beauty,” said Françoise Lehmann, Lancôme’s International General Manager.

Lehmann added: “She is a very inspiring young woman for her generation: She is immensely curious, open-minded and has a positive outlook on life.”
