Lupita Nyong’o is having a major fashion moment and it’s getting hard to keep up! Miu Miu has tapped the fashion “it girl” for its Spring/Summer 2014 ad campaign.

“Being considered a fashion star is wonderful,” the Mexico-born Nigerian actress told USA Today. “It’s definitely a bonus thing. It was in no way my agenda when I started.”

Photographed by Inez & Vinoodh , the Miu Miu ads also feature actresses Elle Fanning ( Somewhere / Super 8 ), Elizabeth Olsen ( Martha Macy May Marlene ), and Bella Heathcote ( Dark Shadows ). See more photos from the shoot below.

“Each set is as distinctive and striking as the young actresses themselves, walls in saturated shades of blue, red and violet accentuating the mixed prints and materials of the clothes, and multicoloured floorboards sweeping towards the camera at surreal angles…

The actresses’ poses, full of personality, convey their diverse points of view, effortlessly translating the new spirit of the Miu Miu woman.”
