Entitled Leading Ladies, the campaign will feature four shots of the eclectic group all photographed in quintessentially British settings, including Camber Sands and the Cotswolds.

Last season, the high street giant called on the likes of Grace Coddington, Tracey Emin, novelist Monica Ali, Helen Mirren, Karen Elson and singer Ellie Goulding.

Once again, Belinda Earl is behind the designs, which includes lots of separates in a monochrome palette.

On appearing in the shoot, Annie Lennox said: "This is the first campaign I've ever done - but who could resist being part of such a great line-up?"

We can't wait to see what the rest of the collection looks like.
