She’s already achieved more than most in Hollywood could ever dream of, and now 10-year-old Quvenzhané Wallis has added another string to her bow with a fashion campaign.

The little star, who holds the title of youngest ever Academy Awards nominee, is the new face of high-end fashion house Giorgio Armani.

The young beauty is fronting a campaign for Armani Junior, and in the first images released for the new collection she is seen posing in a tailored satin suit with an adorable puppy on her shoulder.

Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Quvenzhané said: “I’m so happy to be chosen by Mr. Armani to be his ambassador for Armani Junior.”

“I felt the same excitement when I got cast for a major film. Me? Wow!”

Quvenzhané, whose acclaimed turn in Beasts of the Southern Wild drew worldwide attention, recently wrapped filming on a remake of the Annie, also starring Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx.
