Abbey Lee Kershaw lands Chanel.

Big congrats are in order for Australian beauty Abbey Lee Kershaw for landing the latest Chanel campaign- only the third Aussie to ever feature in one. (Nicole Kidman and Alyssa Sutherland did us proud some years back).

The 22-year-old has certainly come a long way since winning the Girlfriend CoverGirl Model Search in 2004, and has modelled for D&G, Gucci, Calvin Klein, Rodarte, Vogue, and of course the late Alexander McQueen- who could forget the scandalous pre-show faint?

Susie Stenmark, the general manager of communications for Chanel Australia says, "Karl considers her to be a very modern beauty, a very contemporary beauty, and she has a very of the moment look and I think he likes to choose a girl who fulfils that criteria for the brand."

We all know how hard Karl Lagerfeld is to please, so Abbey clearly must have charmed the socks off him. With a face like this, it's understandable.
