Kirsten Dunst Announced as New Face of Bulgari

The New York spring 2012 fashion shows were two weeks ago, right? Then how on EARTH did Kirsten Dunst get to wear this Derek Lam 2012 spring long white dress so soon after he showed the collection it’s in?

She turned up in what we’d call an “early bird look” at a Bulgari Eyewear event at the Ilori Boutique in Soho on October 4, in a Bulgari clutch, ring and earrings – and a two week old dress.

Now, we know this dress hasn’t gone into production yet – it’s got to be the sample straight off the runway. Either Kirsten has a good friend in Derek Lam, or she’s got one very well connected stylist! Virtually NO actress has gotten to wear a spring 2012 look yet – unless it’s been at the designer’s fashion show.
