She's a Hollywood star in her own right, but Katie Holmes was transported back to the golden age of cinema for Bobbi Brown's new campaign.
The actress was given a vintage makeover to resemble the likes of Katherine Hepburn and Rita Hayworth for the cosmetics brand's Old Hollywood range.
With her hair brunette locks styled into retro waves, Katie, 34, certainly proved she can wear a red lip to rival any of the past screen sirens.

For added vintage appear, the actress was dressed in an off-the-shoulder red lace gown, with textured detail around the skirt and the sleeves, with an intricate pattern down the front to show off a little skin underneath.
Certainly the scarlet colour is perfect for the festive season campaign, but Katie was given a little gothic edge with a black manicure.
Holmes has been a brand ambassador for Bobbi Brown since 2012, when she was named the first ever celebrity face for the brand launched in 1991.
Speaking of Katie, founder Bobbi said: 'Katie Holmes epitomises the modern "Bobbi woman"… I think of her as the modern day Ali McGraw, who I have always admired. Katie is a classic natural beauty, entrepreneur, and mother.
The first: Katie was first named a brand ambassador for Bobbi Brown in 2012, the first celebrity to be the face of the cosmetic line
Designer: Bobbi Brown was the lead make up artist on the Holmes & Yang Spring 2013 runway in 2012, the fashion label set up by Katie and celebrity stylist Jeanne Yang
'When I met her, I thought she was a natural fit for my brand, and felt an instant connection with her because we have so much in common.'
As well as collaborating with the brand to create her own capsule make-up range, Brown was the lead makeup artist at the Spring/Summer 2013 Holmes & Yang Fashion Show, the fashion label founded by Katie and celebrity stylist Jeanne Yang.
While Holmes has her fingers in the fashion and beauty jars, she is still working hard in the movie business, with three movies in post-production (Miss Meadows, Days And Nights, and Mania Days) and another she is currently filming with Meryl Streep and Alexsander Skarsgard.

Keeping her on her toes: Katie takes time out from filming The Giver to spend time with her daughter
The Giver is a story about a 'seemingly perfect community, without war, pain, suffering, differences or choice, where a young boy is chosen to learn from an elderly man about the true pain and pleasure of the real world.'
In Katie's real life, details of her divorce from Tom Cruise are being dredged up as her ex-husband continues a legal batter with Bauer Media over a story run by In Touch and Life & Style magazines claiming he 'abandoned' their daughter Suri following their June 2012 split.
Details from Cruise's deposition suggest that he agrees that one of the reasons she filed for divorce from the Hollywood star is because she wanted 'to protect their daughter from Scientology.'
