Taken by celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz, the 2008 ad shows bad-boy Richards on a hotel room bed with his trusty guitar. Looking more and more like Captain Jack Sparrow in Pirates Of The Caribbean every time he's pictured, Richards pulls off the ad surprisingly well. Despite a history of drug abuse, the rock 'n' roller looks stylish in his leather jacket and zebra-print shirt. Naturally, he rests his drink on a Louis Vuitton trunk - though we're dubious as to whether a British cup of tea would really cut the mustard with someone like Richards. In fact, he's probably got cocaine and whiskey stashed in that trunk of his. Other stars to have fronted the French fashion house's 'Core Values' campaign include former Russian leader Mikhail Gorbachev, screen siren Catherine Deneuve and US starlets Scarlett Johansson and Uma Thurman. Bravo, old chap - you've succeeded in making filthy look utterly fabulous.
