Lindsay Lohan for Saint Laurent? Troubled star appears in a VERY convincing spoof of label's new rock n roll ad campaign

Lindsay Lohan may not have been cast in any real fashion campaigns - but she has just appeared in a second spoof ad in as many weeks.

In a play on Saint Laurent's high-profile new campaign starring Marilyn Manson and Courtney Love, the wayward star is seen staring seductively into the camera, wearing a glossy padded jacket.

The image, which first appeared on the 5thVillage Instagram feed, is certainly convincing, given the grungy Nineties aesthetic of the French label's ads.

But the photo, in fact, is an edited shot of Miss Lohan modeling for the Italian clothing company, Fornarina, in fall 2010.

While the Saint Laurent verdict on the parody is not known, Miss Lohan, who is currently in Brazil, gave it a thumbs up.

When the image appeared on Twitter yesterday, she replied: 'Omg I would die! So amazing !!! I love Hedi [Slimane, Saint Laurent's creative director] & shooting w/him!'

It is not the first time Lohan has appeared in a spoof commercial. Last month the troubled actress starred in a spoof of Louis Vuitton's Core Values ad series.

The image, which appeared on the blog of Daniel Pianetti, showed her sat in court apparently admiring her lawyer's LV embossed briefcase.

And like the real ads, the photo was framed by a thick white border with the brand name spelled out in the bottom right-hand corner.

Buzzfeed took the joke one step further, and altered the image to include the caption: 'Some journeys have no end. Los Angeles. 9:45 a.m. LAX Courthouse.'

While Lohan perhaps wouldn't fit with Louis Vuitton's glossy image, her look certainly works for Saint Laurent - especially given this season's rock 'n' roll theme.

She even worked with the label's creative director Hedi Slimane in 2009.

The feted designer, 44, who is also a photographer, captured her in a series of provocative shots for his own portfolio, around the time her apparent weight-loss was starting to make press.

However for his latest Saint Laurent campaign, Mr Slimane selected subjects to complement his music-inspired project.

He opted for American musicians including Courtney Love, Marilyn Manson, Los Angeles-based rock artist Ariel Pink and former Sonic Youth singer and guitarist Kim Gordon.

All are seen sporting monochrome ensembles, uncombed hair and dark eye make-up.

Most images were shot at a New York studio, but Courtney Love chose to be photographed letting-loose at her home in the city.

According to Saint Laurent, the brand’s relationship with the rock world dates back to 1971, when Yves Saint Laurent himself dressed Mick and Bianca Jagger for their nuptials in Saint-Tropez.

Since his appointment at the helm of the label in 2012, Mr Slimane has continued the tradition, and taken every opportunity to fuse together his passions for fashion, music and photography.

He snapped up Beck to front the spring/summer 2013 menswear ads, rising music star Sky Ferreira for the autumn/winter 2013 lookbook and Christopher Owens as the face of the brand relaunch.

The Saint Laurent Music Project is an ongoing portraiture campaign featuring rock stars who have styled themselves in the label's clothes.

She only looks "stunning" because of the photoshop and makeup. Take that away and she'll be looking just like she does in the last picture.
