Emma Stone debuted her first fashion campaign for Louis Vuitton on Thursday.
The La La Land actress commanded attention in chic printed gowns as she held pieces from the pre-Fall 2018 collection in the California desert backdrop.
The actress modeled for the luxury brand after she was slammed following her Oscars presentation for ‘white feminism’.
‘I am very happy and proud to be working with a House as passionate as Louis Vuitton, as well as with the unique style and creations of Nicolas Ghesquière,’ said the 29-year-old in reference to the creative director.

Daring to impress, the Oscar winner rocked a sensational black mini dress that stopped short just above the thighs.
The fashion forward number boasted delicate yellow patterned sleeves that billowed in the wind as she held a pink handbag from the luxury goods designer.
She paired the spring chic style with a set of knee high black leathers boots that accentuated her gorgeous gams.

The campaign comes after the star received backlash for referring to the Oscar nominees for Best Director as ‘four men and Greta Gerwig’ at the awards show.
Online critics accused Stone of minimizing the achievements of Best Director nominees Guillermo del Toro, a Mexican immigrant, and Jordan Peele, a black man, and called the starlet an example of ‘peak white feminism.’
The 90th Academy Awards were filled with references to the Time’s Up movement, but many people felt Stone’s jab about gender disparity in Hollywood missed the mark because it dismissed the accomplishments of two men of color.

‘It is the director whose indelible touch is reflected on every frame,’ Stone started her speech. ‘It is the director who, shot by shot, scene by scene, day by day, works with every member of the crew to further the story.
‘And it is the vision of the director that takes an ordinary movie and turns it into a work of art,’ she continued. ‘These four men, and Greta Gerwig, created their own masterpieces this year.’
Although Stone’s comment was met with laughter and shouts at the awards show, it caused quite a stir on Twitter as people debated whether it was an appropriate comment about the lack of female representation in the category or simply dismissive of the hardworking male nominees.

Many people noted that Peele was only the fifth black person to be nominated in the category and the only one in the running for the award that night.
Meanwhile, Best Director winner del Toro spoke candidly about being a Mexican immigrant during his acceptance speech.
Some accused Emma of ‘white feminism,’ a brand of feminism that focuses on the ideal and struggles of white women while failing to address the oppression of ethnic minorities.

‘Peak white feminism from Emma Stone,’ Nik Reed tweeted. ‘Pointing out that 4 of the nominees are men while ignoring that 2 of those men are minorities.’
‘I understand what #EmmaStone was trying to illustrated last night but to shun an African American, and Mexican immigrant, directors who also are underrepresented is just classless and disrespectful,’ Sergio Serna commented.
Others called to attention to the fact that Emma played a Allison Ng, a character who was a quarter Chinese and quarter Hawaiian, in the 2015 film Aloha and has appeared in films by Woody Allen, a filmmaker accused of 𝓈ℯ𝓍ually abusing his daughter.
‘This is the same Emma Stone who played a whitewashed character in Aloha, right? Or am I remembering wrong. NARRATOR: She wasn’t remembering wrong. #OscarsSoWhite,’ a woman named April tweeted.
‘I’m not here for the participation trophies & partial credit some are so eager to give out,’ she added. ‘Emma Stone made a movie with Woody Allen, played a whitewashed character, and erased the importance of two men of color in a category. But she identified a woman, so…. yay?’
Walter Chaw added: ‘Noted Chinese actress Emma Stone gets woke all of a sudden.’
Emma is reportedly dating Saturday Night Live segment director Dave McCary, 32.
The couple had apparently been going strong since early summer last year, according to Page Six.
Her beau has worked at SNL since 2014 and is also the co-founder of the sketch comedy group, Good Neighbor.
It’s not surprising that the two crossed paths, since the actress hosted SNL in 2016 and McCary directed a sketch she starred in.
Stone previously dated her Spider-Man co-star Andrew Garfield. Before that she was with Kieran Culkin, brother of Home Alone actor Macaulay Culkin.
