This month Harry Potter star Emma Watson was unveiled as the new “face” of British fashion house Burberry.
The 19 year-old actress followed in the footsteps of supermodels Kate Moss, Stella Tennant and Agyness Dean who have all featured in Burberry fashion campaigns.
Burberry’s creative director Christopher Bailey, said: “Having known and admired the lovely Emma Watson for quite some time, she was the obvious choice for this campaign who like the images she fronts, has a classic beauty a great character and a modern edge.”
Photographed by renowned fashion photographer Mario Testino, Burberry is the first major advertising campaign for Emma Watson.
The Harry Potter star is fast becoming a British style icon. The young actress has been spotted on the front row of catwalk shows like Chanel (her favourite brand) and has graced the covers of magazines such as Tatler and now the August issue of Teen Vogue.

In an interview with Teen Vogue she says of her style: “It’s very hard to describe your own style, and I’m young, so I’m still experimenting. But I think it’s quite British and very much about individuality.”
Here at Wardrobe we love Emma’s mature and elegant style.

I wouldn’t have chosen her myself, but after seeing those pictures, they have got it spot on! She looks so elegant and classic in that picture in teen Vogue, it’s a wonder why Chanel haven’t snapped her up for more things, she’d be perfect maybe in a few more years! x

She looks too young to me. I don’t think she looks edgy enough to be a ’style icon’. Perhaps in a couple of years people will take her more seriously.
