Chanel has recruited 19-year-old Lottie Moss as the face of its Spring / Summer 2017 eyewear collection, with Karl Lagerfeld behind the lens.

The sunglasses worn take inspiration from a Data Center Chanel collection presented at its Spring / Summer 2017 Ready-to-Wear show, and their 18 karat rose gold lenses are imprinted with lines of code than spell out the brand's name.

Lottie is the 19-year-old half sister of English supermodel Kate Moss, who was particularly well associated with Calvin Klein -- part of the same group as Tommy Hilfiger and Van Heusen -- but has also modelled for Chanel and many others.

According to Chanel notes, the Lottie Moss photoshoot look references 1960s hippy style and Vladimir Nabokov's controversial 12-year-old character Lolita.
