The Australian actress, who plays Princess Diana in seasons five and six of “The Crown,” joins Cara Delevingne as the second face of the French fashion house’s jewelry division. Delevingne, who was named a Dior Joaillerie ambassador in 2019, represents the Rose des Vents, Gem Dior and La D de Dior collections.
The recipient of Max Mara’s Face of the Future award in 2019, Debicki has starred in films including “Widows,” “Vita & Virginia” and “Tenet,” in addition to TV series “The Night Manager” and “The Kettering Incident.” She is also due to reprise her role as Ayesha in “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,” set for a 2023 release.

Christian Dior was famous for his love of flowers — none more so than the rose, which inspired many of the couturier’s designs and continues to fuel Dior’s creative output to this day.
