Ann Taylor signs Katie Holmes for the spring ad campaign

Ann Taylor has confirmed that Katie Holmes will be the face of the company's spring 2011 ad campaign that will debut in March.

The images of Holmes wearing the brand's updated classics (think perfectly tailored trousers, sleek jackets and plenty of navy-and-white stripes) were shot in Los Angeles by famed fashion photographer Tom Munro.

This isn't the first time Holmes has posed for a major fashion brand. She appeared in J. Crew's catalog in the fall along with Josh Duhamel and her other "The Romantics" co-stars.

Holmes also appears on the cover of the current issue of Elle.

The news of her Ann Taylor deal comes just days after History decided not to air her controversial series "The Kennedys," in which Holmes was to portray Jackie Kennedy.
