Michelle Obama and Samantha Cameron are two political names we could associate with fashion, however Tony Blair is not.

So we were more than shocked to find out that the former Prime Minister is joining Louis Vuitton as an advisor at the luxury brand.

A source told the Daily Telegraph: “There is an agreement in principle but nothing has been signed yet.

“Mr Blair won’t be joining the board but he will be acting in an advisory role, working very closely with Mr Arnault. In particular, his job is likely to involve attracting new clients.”

We’ll have to watch carefully to find out how this one pans out, but we’re just glad Mr Blair wasn’t recruited for an ad campaign.
