It was only a matter of time before we saw a merger of two of the biggest celebrity trends: Celebrity designers and actors and singers as models. Now actress Sienna Miller is looking at hiring Keira Knightley, currently the face of Coco Mademoiselle, to model for Twenty8Twelve, the fashion line Miller created with sister Savannah.
"I'm not thinking of a face for our brand yet but I would love Keira," Sienna said. "I love her face! That's quite a good idea, right - I'm getting Keira."
The two are no strangers -- they worked together on the set of the upcoming movie, The Edge of Love. For that reason, Sienna knows that realistically, Keira probably wouldn't have the time to take on another modeling job.
"She is the face of Chanel (Coco Mademoiselle) so she is not going to come and do my little line. I could bully her into it. She is my mate, so you know, mate rates and all that, we will see."
Will other celebrity designers like Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Lopez, Penelope & Monaco Cruz, or Kate Moss hire a fellow star to model for their own lines too?
