Guess who is the new face of Miu Miu?

Ok, this is interesting. I know Miu Miu have a rep as Prada’s little sister to be quirky and cool, but hiring a 14-year-old to represent your line may be taking it a bit far!

The actress in question is Hailee Steinfeld, who you may remember earned an Oscar nod for her role in True Grit earlier this year.

She's been steadily wowing the fashion pack with her age-appropriate red carpet dresses and Miu Miu have already created outfits for her on a number of occasions.

Previous ambassadors of the brand include Kirsten Dunst and Lindsay Lohan, so does Hailee really have the pulling power to match them?

Well... I think she's just a bit TOO young for this. After all, she appeals to other kids her age, but stylish women in the 20-30's age bracket may well be put off, by what could essentially be their daughter modelling clothes.

Who knows though, she may be a mega hit. If this sparks a trend for teeny boppers ruling the big fashion campaigns then Chloe Moretz and Elle Fanning are sure to follow in Hailee's footsteps.

Watch this space...
