She won't be toting a shotgun or sporting a cowboy hat this time around—Hailee Steinfeld will serve as the face of Miu Miu for an upcoming print advertising campaign.

A spokeswoman for Miu Miu's parent company, Prada, exclusively tells E! News that the True Grit star has already sat for a photo shoot.

"I can confirm Hailee Steinfeld has been shot to appear in the new Miu Miu fall-winter 2011 campaign," says the rep.

Steinfeld, 14, shot to stardom following her breakthrough performance in last year's Coen brothers film that earned her an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actress.

While promoting True Grit last year, Steinfeld's chic, adorable and age-appropriate red carpet appearances caught the eye of the fashion industry. On March 9, she was a special guest at the Miu Miu show at Paris Fashion Week, sparking rumors the label would sign her up.

What else appeals about this star? "She's up-and-coming and different," says an industry insider.

Steinfeld is the latest celebrity to endorse the high-end Italian label. Katie Holmes, Evan Rachel Wood, Vanessa Paradis and Lindsay Lohan all have appeared in Miu Miu ads.

She's come a long way from her 2009 Kmart commercial!
