Cole Haan has announced a multi-year partnership with model Dree Hemingway. Dree will feature in this fall's advertising campaign and will collaborate with Cole Haan on a premium collection of women's footwear and handbags, designed in collaboration with her. Cole Haan is experiencing rapid growth in Japan and the Middle East, and plans to expand into China, Korea, and Mexico this fall. Dree will support the brand's business expansion as a global ambassador. Dree commented, "I'm thrilled to bring my aesthetic, spirit, and ideas to bear on my partnership with Cole Haan, and to be involved in the brand's creative process. I look forward to bringing new ideas to life." Cole Haan CEO Jack Boys added, "Dree brings the freshness and stature of a brand icon to our new women's line, making her the ideal choice as a global ambassador." Dolly grew up in Idaho and Los Angeles, USA, and studied acting at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London before starting her modeling career in Paris in 2009. She has modeled for brands such as Givenchy, Calvin Klein, and Chanel, and has also appeared in fashion magazines such as Vogue around the world. She is the great-granddaughter of author Ernest Hemingway and the daughter of actress Mariel Hemingway.
