Images taken from the shoot of a new advertising campaign for Marks & Spencer suggest that acid attack victim Katie Piper is the new public face of the retailer.
Starring alongside Helen Mirren and Annie Leibovitz the trio were spotted at St Katharine’s Dock on Friday filming scenes for a commercial, the latest ad campaign to be mounted by the firm.
Piper has been praised for her handling of a sulphuric acid attack by her former boyfriend in 2008, an incident which led to her being badly disfigured and blinded in one eye.
In response to this Piper established the Katie Piper Foundation to inspire others living with burns and scars.
M&S has refused to confirm or deny media speculation around their campaign at this time.
