Fashion house Balenciaga has unveiled actress Michelle Yeoh as its new Brand Ambassador. Already close with the house, the legendary actress, producer, and martial artist of international renown announces with Balenciaga that their relationship will continue to grow in an official capacity. Her new role is commemorated with a portrait by the documentary photographer Platon, who is known for capturing the world’s most prominent, fashionable, and revolutionary personalities as well as Balenciaga's previously named ambassadors Isabelle Huppert and PP Krit Amnuaydechkorn.

“I am thrilled to join Balenciaga as a brand ambassador,” says Michelle. “For me, fashion is a form of art. It’s not just about a dress but about self-expression, how you feel in the dress, and the values you embody wearing it; it is a way to communicate my work and who I am to the world. Wearing Balenciaga makes me value the artistry and craftsmanship behind every piece. The brand embodies a sense of originality and relevance while always remaining true to its heritage as a couture atelier. It is an honor to partner with Balenciaga.
