For weeks--months, even--fans have been eagerly awaiting two particicular campaigns of the coming season. And now, at last, the first image from one of these has been released--that being Christina Schmidt's FW 2009 promotion for Nygard (or, give it its proper name, Nygård).

Nygård is a well-known label that is widely distributed throughout North America--most notably by The Bay in Canada, and by Dillard's in the U.S. For Christina to appear in a campaign for this label is a significant career success. And as expected, the first image from the promotion is a masterpiece.

Christina exudes effortless charm, her round facial features lovelier than ever. Her smile is carefree and easygoing; her eyes sparkle with wit and a newfound maturity. She has grown out her hair again, and looks absolutely gorgeous. She appears both youthful and sophisticated, fresh yet elegant--perfect for the Nygård attire.

This banner is a preview of a major campaign for the entire Nygård lineup, and raises fans' anticipation even further for more images from the promotion.

I've really missed Christina! I'm so glad to see her in a new campaign. She looks wonderful!

I hope that Nygard will issue more images from this campaign soon.

And yes, it's terrific to see Christina with longer hair again, which suits her so well. I hope that she will continue to grow it out.

What a lovely smile!
