Russian pop sensation duo T.A.T.U. has been summoned by Marc Jacobs to be the new faces of Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2008/Winter 2009 fashion ad campaign.

The singers replace Victoria Beckham, who starred in Jacobs’ spring/summer collection.

The designer often opts for more unconventional choices for his advertising campaigns, which have previously featured child star Dakota Fanning, director Sofia Coppola, The White Stripes’ Meg White, and singer M.I.A. Via sparkleshelf / femalefirst
