She's modelled for Burberry and Lancôme, but Emma Watson is stripped of her fashion sense in new film The Perks Of Being A Wallflower.
The Harry Potter actress takes centre stage in her latest project about an introverted freshman student taken under the wings of two seniors who welcome him to the real world.
In the first images released from the film, the 21-year-old star is dressed in a frumpy jumper that most people would be asking for the receipt back after granny gave it to them at Christmas.

Rising star Logan Lerman, who shot to fame in Percy Jackson And The Lightening Thief, also features in the first sneak peek - but another co-star stole her heart.
The Parisian-born beauty has embarked on a romance with Johnny Simmons instead.

And it seems Watson has wasted no time in asking her new American beau to move to Britain.
Emma is about to take up a place at Oxford University, and wants her 24-year-old boyfriend to be with her when she resumes her studies next month.
A friend said: 'Emma is looking forward to her English degree at Worcester College.
'She is excited to be back but she misses Johnny. She would love him to come here.'
Despite the cutesy title, The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is set to explore hard-hitting topics including teenage sexuality, abuse and the struggles of adolescence.
Watson has been connected the film since last summer, but it only recently gained funding from Twilight franchise owners Summit Entertainment.
Speaking of her role, she said: 'I was very nervous before we started shooting... about the American accent.
'They (her co-stars) went to an American high school, they know what prom looks like, all these little details that I had no idea about. So I was a little neurotic.'
