At 88 years old, actress Tippi Hedren just debuted her latest role in an ad for Gucci timepieces and jewelry, WWD reported.
In the video that will appear on Facebook, Hedren, who starred in The Birds (1963) and Marnie (1964), is seen presiding over a crystal ball in a dimly lit, lushly furnished palm-reading joint on the strip. Her fingers are gloriously entwined in Gucci jewelry as she mind-meld's with several pretty young truthseekers (played by Victoria Schons, Emily Unkles, Tom Atton Moore and Tex Santos-Shaw) also wearing great jewels. "All of your dreams will come true," Hedren concludes. The whole video has an eery, David Lynch Twin Peaks sort of vibe.
Millenials know Hedren as Dakota Johnson's grandmother.
Johnson appeared in an ad for Gucci Bloom, the first fragrance overseen by creative director Alessandro Michele, earlier this year.
The Hedren/Gucci photographs are by Colin Dodgson and include close-ups of the Gucci Ouroboros, GG Running and Le Marché des Merveilles fine jewelry collections and the G-Frame and G-Timeless timepieces, among others.
