Final Fantasy XIII is a pretty terrible game, but a fantastic hallway simulator. It only makes sense that fans latch onto anything they can to get over how dull the last game really was. Lightning is one character that, to be perfectly honest, really stands out from the game. I’m not sure if this is because she is actually a great character, or if she’s cool simply because she’s the only good thing about whatever the hell was going on in Finally Fantasy XII.
The character is now spreading her wings and leaving the world of Final Fantasy in favor of a modeling gig with Louis Vuitton. It’s not the first time that the girls of Final Fantasy jumped onto the fashion bandwagon, with Final Fantasy X-2 leaving behind the traditional story in favor of the cast turning into a group of models in a pop band. Yes, that really happened, because fan service is the only thing keeping the series afloat.
Lightning was introduced as the new face of the Louis Vuitton Series 4 Collection via the Instagram account of the Louis Vuitton’s Creative Director,
Nicolas Ghesquiere. You can check out a little bit of Lightning showing off her modeling skills in the video below:
