Cressida Bonas is the new face of Mulberry.

The 25-year-old dancer and former girlfriend of Prince Harry has been unveiled as the star of a new video by the British label to showcase their spring/summer 2015 clothing collection, during which she shows off her incredible dance skills with a mixture of "improvised" and rehearsed steps.

She told Yahoo Style: "I think it was just about being free and happy, and having fun.

"The idea was, 'Dance as if you're dancing in your kitchen.' It was more about a dance that was improvised, and not all about the steps. It was really just about having fun!"

The blonde beauty - who appears in the short film alongside actor Freddie Fox - was cast in the ads after talent spotters at her final dance performance before her graduation from the University of Leeds were "charmed by her movement which inspired the concept".

The video - which is set to be released in March - made its debut in Los Angeles over the weekend at a star-studded party, with guests including fellow Mulberry model Cara Delevingne and Keira Knightley.

Cressida joins a host of beauties including Alexa Chung, Rebecca Hall, Olivia Palermo, Lana Del Rey and Kate Moss, who have acted as ambassador for the brand.
