Pepe Jeans are suing an airline for cancelling Sienna Miller's flight to the U.S. where she was due for a photoshoot.

The actress was hired as the face of Pepe Jeans but company officials were furious when the star was unable to attend a planned modelling assignment because her flight was delayed.

In a lawsuit filed in Manhattan's Federal Court, Pepe Jeans claim they paid $160,000 (£80,000) to Jet Set Private Air Service to transport the actress and her associates from London to New Jersey airport on 7 October last year (07).

But the plane never took off and the lawsuit states Miller and her party were left waiting for six hours. And when the group left to get some dinner, they were told on their return that they could not board the aircraft as they did not have the "necessary paperwork" to enter the U.S.

Miller missed the shoot and Pepe was forced to bring in a replacement model. The suit also claims Jet Set offered a full refund but never provided themoney.
