After the last Miu Miu ad was banned for featuring ‘dangerous images’ of 15-year-old actress Hailee Steinfeld, it’s no wonder the label has decided to go in a different direction.
The new campaign sees Alice in Wonderland star Mia Wasikowska, who has been signed up as the new face, in a slightly less controversial pose. The 22-year-old shows off the new collection against a plainer backdrop.
Mia has made a name for herself starring in Tim Burton’s 3D film as well as playing Jane Eyre last yea and has also been a fixture on the fashion scene, attracting attention for her quirky style.
The Australian star was pictured on the front row of the Miu Miu show last season – a clue she was the next big thing for the brand, owned by Prada.

It’s been a rough year (years?) for Lindsay Lohan; the only place she’s had to dress up for has been the courtroom.
But now that Lindsay is putting the past behind her, she’s seemingly trying to revamp her acting career (by playing Elizabeth Taylor!) and her modeling career (by going naked, natch).
But Linds has kept her clothes on for a few gigs: she landed a Jag Jeans campaign recently, and in these new ads for German designer Philipp Plein, she shows off a highbrow side that we haven’t seen in quite some time.
Lindsay first announced she was starring in the ads back in the fall, before she jetted off to Milan for Fashion Week to pose for the shoot. Back then, Lindsay and Plein were also rumored to be romantically involved.
But no matter how things ended, Plein praised Lindsay’s joie de vivre earlier this year, stating:
“Lindsay is a beautiful, highly acclaimed actress and model. We will be able to create unique images: Refined and luxurious, but also full of sensuality.”
And surprisingly, we agree, because we’re kind of loving the spots. Even though she does flash some leg, it’s fab to see Lindsay done up in classy couture — and it’s a total 180 from those other ads she recently posed for.

Mila Kunis is spreading her wings, becoming the latest celebrity to join the Christian Dior family.
The actress’ first ads for the Miss Dior handbag — shot in New York by photographer Mikael Jansson — will debut internationally in Asian and European editions of ELLE, Vogue and Madame Figaro on Jan. 15. Appearances in U.S. media outlets will follow later in the month.
“I am absolutely thrilled to be working with Dior,” Kunis said in a statement. “The brand is iconic in so many ways. It defines fashion, elegance and sophistication.”
In signing with the French fashion house, Kunis joins Lady Dior handbags’ current face, Marion Cotillard (who will remain in her role), plus Black Swan costar Natalie Portman, the spokesmodel for Miss Dior Cherie perfume. Charlize Theron also models for Dior beauty and J’adore Dior fragrance, and Jude Law, Sophie Marceau and Sharon Stone have ties to the brand, as well.
