Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Mert Alas and Marcus Piggott recently shot A-list actress Kirsten Dunst for the spring/summer 2008 collection for Miu Miu. Dunst will be replacing French model/actress Laeticia Casta as the endorser for the fashion brand.

The "Spiderman" and "Marie Antoinette" star was not the one of the first celebrities to front the brand, Miuccia Prada has been known to promote her brand through the marketing power of female celebrities.

The team up with the young actress will hopefully boost the brand's growth in the U.S. especially with the upcoming opening of stores along 57th Street in New York and Rodeo Drive in Los Angeles by next year.
