Mila Kunis embodies old Hollywood glamour in return as the face of Miss Dior
|
It's been decades since Hollywood's Golden Age, but Mila Kunis, as one of this generation's most in-demand stars, epitomises that old-school glamour in a new campaign for Christian Dior.
The Black Swan actress, whose first ad for the luxury fashion label debuted in January, smoulders in her return as the face of brand's ready-to-wear accessories.

Glamour: Mila Kunis is at ease amongst throngs of paparazzi in the Autumn 2012 campaign for Miss Dior handbags
According to WWD.com, creatives at the label aimed to depict Kunis as 'the kind of woman accustomed to attention from throngs of paparazzi' for the Autumn 2012 handbag campaign.
Indeed, it's not a stretch for the star, who appeared at Dior's Paris fashion show in March, seeming to take pride in her role wearing a soft nude palette in a chic lace dress.
There, Mila opened up about her new role as an ambassador for the esteemed fashion house, and her own personal style - describing herself as a 'jeans and T-shirt' kind of girl.
She told WWD: 'I'm honestly just learning about fashion... In my daily life, I don’t wear the most feminine pieces. But I love to feel feminine when I’m on the red carpet.'
A black-and-white vision: The campaign will launch in the August issue of Elle Hong Kong on July 21, and will appear in worldwide titles in September
Fans of the star might also expect to see her wearing much more of the label at premieres and during the coming awards season.
'I find that Dior is an incredibly grounded house,' she continued. 'I always thought what Dior does is so sophisticated, feminine and beautiful.'
And the feeling appears to be mutual. Executives at Dior are besotted with the rising star.
Delphine Arnault, deputy general manager at Dior, told WWD: 'Mila Kunis is a very talented young actress... Her performance in Black Swan was remarkable. She is very gifted.'
Mila's appointment as the face of Dior follows that of Black Swan co-star Natalie Portman. The stunning actress, dressed in black, was photographed posing with the Spring 2012 Miss Dior handbag.

She also joins an illustrious line-up of house models for Dior.

Mila's latest campaign will launch in the August issue of Elle Hong Kong on July 21, and will appear in worldwide titles in September.
The images will also be unveiled in tandem with a short film on the Miss Dior website next week.
Meanwhile, the actress has a busy production schedule ahead.
She is currently starring in big screen comedy Ted, which sees her alongside Mark Wahlberg in Seth MacFarlane's directorial debut.
Set for release later this year is her poetic drama Tar, which takes a look at author C.K. Williams' life over the course of 40 years.
On the red carpet: Mila has previously described herself as a 'jeans and T-shirt' type of girl - appearing on Thursday in a casual ensemble at Comic-Con in San Diego
She also recently wrapped filming on Blood Ties, co-starring Zoe Saldana and Marion Cotillard, whose husband, Guillaume Canet, is directing.
The film, along with the highly-anticipated Oz: The Great and Powerful, is expected for release in 2013.
Mila will play Theodora in the movie, which tells the story of how the The Wizard of Oz and came to be the ruler of the magical land imagined for the silver screen in 1939.
James Franco is playing the much beloved conjurer Oz, who has to work out which of a tantalising trio of witches he can trust in the strange and magical locale.
The enchanting beauties are played by Michelle Williams, Rachel Weisz and Mila, as Theodora.
