Mila Kunis, the sultry TV star-turned-film star, is the new face of Christian Dior.

The “Black Swan” star is set to appear in its spring fashion campaign, shot by Mikael Jansson and will appear in international editions of Elle, Vogue and Madame Figaro, starting with China on Jan. 15, then Italy, Russia and France according to Reuters.

It is to debut in the U.S. in The New York Times on Jan. 29, followed by a range of American monthlies, including Vanity Fair and Harper’s Bazaar.

“Mila Kunis is a very talented young actress; she embodies the true modern woman. Her performance in ‘Black Swan’ was remarkable. She is very gifted,” said Delphine Arnault, deputy general manager at Dior, lauding Kunis’ youthful energy. “We are looking forward to a long relationship with her.”

“I’m honestly just learning about fashion,” Kunis told WWD exclusively in a telephone interview.

“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,” Kunis said, adding that Dior’s dresses exalt the figure. “I find that Dior is an incredibly grounded house. I always thought what Dior does is so sophisticated, feminine and beautiful.”

The 28-year-old is currently in reshoots for the motion picture “Ted,” due out in July.
