Hailee Steinfeld: Miu Miu job was lucky

30th June 2011

(Cover) - EN Star Style - Hailee Steinfeld feels "so lucky" to be the face of Miu Miu's new campaign.

The American actress, who rose to fame for her Oscar-nominated role playing Mattie Ross in last year's film True Grit, was announced as the new face of the luxury brand in May.

Pictures have been released for Miu Miu's Fall/Winter 2011 collection, which were shot by photographer Bruce Weber.

Hailee, who poses prettily in the images wearing a floral puff-sleeved blue dress, feels thrilled at the prestigious collaboration.

"I had such an amazing experience working with the Miu Miu team on this new campaign," she said in a release. "It's so much fun to have the chance to work with such a gifted designer and wear these incredible clothes. I feel so lucky to be a part of it."

Hailee, whose style was described as "fresh and feminine and far from conventional", impressed people at the brand. The 14-year-old star has been described as the perfect candidate for the role because of her young age mixed with her mature attitude.

"She is a girl who has the stature in both senses to carry these mature and elegant silhouettes whilst still remaining true to her youthful spirit," a Miu Miu rep said in a release. (C) Cover Media
