Kate Spade, who killed herself in June, is now a spokesperson for Ulta Beauty.
When Kate Spade took her own life in June, the fashion designer left behind a legacy of iconic handbags and clothing. The fashion world was devastated by the loss of such an influential figure. Now, however, it seems that Kate Spade has come back from the dead to promote one of her favourite beauty brands. According to a tweet from an account called @katespadenyc on October 25th, Kate Spade is now the spokesperson for Ulta Beauty.
Ulta Beauty is a chain of beauty stores that sells makeup and skincare products. It’s not unusual for celebrities to become spokespeople for brands after they die, with Elvis Presley being used as a spokesperson for Las Vegas tourism and Michael Jackson appearing in ads for Pepsi after his death. However, it’s less common to see someone who has recently died appear as a spokesperson in ads so soon after their death.
