Madonna is the new face of Dolce And Gabbana

Madonna will be swapping music for modelling once again, as she becomes the latest cover girl for Dolce And Gabbana.

The Italian fashion duo - who designed iconic costumes for her Girlie Show and Sticky And Sweet tours in 1993 and 2008 - announced on their online magazine, Swide.com, that the Queen of Pop is the face of their spring/summer 2010 campaign.

"To have Madonna in our campaign is a dream come true," said designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana.

It's the latest modelling coup for Madonna, who was the face of Louis Vuitton for two seasons.

The ads were shot last week in New York with acclaimed photographer Steven Klein.
