Lara Stone has been confirmed as the new face of Calvin Klein.

The Dutch supermodel signed an exclusive deal with the fashion house to front its campaigns for Calvin Klein Jeans, Calvin Klein Collection and ck Calvin Klein.

"I have a long history with the Calvin Klein brand, and so it was wonderful to work with the house again this year. It's like being part of a family,” she said.

The deal marks the first time in years Calvin Klein have used one model to front all three of its brands and the firm's creative director, Francisco Costa, thinks Lara's perfect for the role.

"I conceived my autumn 2010 collection with a self-aware and assured woman in mind,” he said.

“For me, Lara was the perfect choice for the new campaign because she is a woman who epitomises confidence and sensuality."

Lara - whose UK size eight figure is deemed 'curvy' by catwalk standards - has taken the fashion world by storm and is currently the face of Prada's Infusion d'Iris scent, Louis Vuitton, Jaeger and Eres.

She has previously said she thinks her curvy figure has helped her become a success.

"I'm different because I am fat. It would be nice if I wasn't the only person with tits and an arse,” she said.

"If I could have the discipline to be super-skinny I would be. I think of dieting, then I eat pizza. I'm a woman, and every woman wants to be thinner - unfortunately."
