The model's been prepped and the photo's been snapped — meet the face of Miu Miu Spring '09: Katie Holmes. This pairing came as a bit of a surprise to us, and we can now properly judge.
Katie's strong bone structure always photographs well and the sepia tone of the ad delivers a cool, vintage feel. Shot by Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott, the ads were inspired by Italian director Fellini, and hoped Katie would appear to be a "luminous icon radiating a sense of mystery and theatricality." What do you think? Would you call this luminous?

i LOVE LOVE LOVE this ad. i love the dress, and i love how katie looks in it. (can you tell that i'm both a huge fan of miu miu as well as hers?)
1i hate it. i still don't think katie is right for miu miu.
2I can't stand her, but I love how they styled her hair.
3Hot! Katie Holmes is a MILTF lol
4Just ok. Miu Miu has done better, I still want to see more...
5not a big fan of hers but she looks good here...
6I think she looks good in this picture!
7I wonder if Victoria Beckham sleeps with one eye open, because Katie Holmes has got a serious "Single White Female" thing going on with her. *shudders*
Unfortunately, Katie comes off a little more tranny that Posh.
Still not getting the pairing of this person to this campaign. Never will. That description of their image ideal only makes me more confused. Katie Holmes' "street style" always seems so forced to me, like she's dressing for the paparazzi waiting outside her door, and I get the same feeling from this. It's not her, and she doesn't look natural or comfortable--just stiff and forced.
8im sick of her and her family they r every where!and i don't understand for what?!
9Her eyes look funny. Teehee. But overall I like it.
Sick of her but it's well done.
Definitely luminous.
10Yikes! This is just not for me.
The photo makes her look unnecessarily harsh, in my opinion. Miu Miu is just not a brand I could ever associate with Katie Holmes, especially when her everyday attire leans a little too far to the drab and 'matronly' for my taste. This peek at the campaign has not changed my opinion.
11Wow.. This doesn't even look like Katie...
No likey.
12She looks too masculine for my liking...
13Her paparazzi shots look way better. Other Miu Miu ads als looked way better.
14great ads
15I don't like Katie Holmes at all but I think she looks better here than usual.
16I love it! I feel that Katie has a natural knack for modeling, and I LOVE Fellini and can definitely see the inspiration here. MUCH MUCH MUCH better than Lindsay Lohan's ads.
17I like it, but it's not her. It's some extremely photoshopped thing, but NOT Katie Holmes.
18I like it from the neck up, but they did something strange to her legs with the photoshop.
19I really miss the old Katie
And that does not look like her AT ALL!! I love the new Miu Miu
look, but not on Katie.
20She looks great. She should model and stop trying to act.
21Don't like, she's trying too hard to look fierce and her eyes look weird. Not the right choice for Miu Miu
22she looks like a droid manufactured by Tom to be Xenu's new bride
23Love it!
24not a huge Katie Holmes fan.. but she is rockin it in this ad!!
25The dress looks cool! I love it!! Katie looks like Victoria Bechham, though.
26I don't like her, but I do like the ad.
27just copying Posh as usual.
28I personally don't care for Katie Homes in her post-Joey days but I have to say she looks gorgeous in this ad. I can see what all the fuss was about.
29She's no icon that's for sure.
30haha, this ad is hilarious. it looks like something from SNL! seriously, they actually though Katie Holmes could pull off dangerous and seductive?! I like Katie Holmes fine, and I think she could have been really good, but I figured they would go for a more sweet but sexy look, which she can totally do (see The Singing Detective or her scene from that show Eli Stone). that would have been much better, and I think it works better for Miu Miu (it worked when Kirsten Dunst modeled for the brand). I just don't like anything about it - the whole scene is boring and unoriginal, the pose is second-rate, the styling is just plain ugly, and she looks crazt (or like she's trying to act crazy)...
31this is just a preview
i think it looked FIERCE!!!
who said that her paparazzi pics are better? LOL! plz -_-
32personally, i really don't have an opinion regarding katie holmes so i was willing to wait and see when i heard she was doing this. however, now that i've seen it, i don't think she's a right fit for this campaign. bone structure duly noted, i just don't think she has the chops nor the edge to pull of something of this caliber, sorry.
33Better then her jeans and oversized sweaters
34She looks like those scary demon ladies from Ghostbusters.
35wow she looks amazing!!!
36waaaaaaaaahhhhhh she looks super fab here
i like this campaign way better than the one feat. kirsten
37I'm impressed she was let out of the house again.
38hard to say whether i like it exactly, but its still pretty fierce.
