Dylan Penn stars in the new spring/summer advertising campaign for Italian fashion house, Ermanno Scervino.

Dylan Penn, the daughter of Robin Wright and Sean Penn is the latest celeb off-spring to make a name for herself in the modelling industry.

This campaign for Ermanno Scervino is not her first assault on the fashion industry; she's appeared in a campaign for Gap and Stuart Weitzman and has also appeared on the cover of L'Officiel Italia.

Penn is described by the brand as an "American beauty."

“Young, glamorous and international: Dylan expresses all the fundamental values of the Ermanno Scervino DNA. Looking forward to her future, conscious of where she comes from.”

“Dylan is a young, beautiful woman, conscious of her background and close to her family but also very independent and determined to succeed in her own professional career."

Penn's career ascent comes on the back of year which has seen models such as Kendall Jenner (of Kardashian/Jenner family fame), Hailey Baldwin (daughter of Stephen Baldwin), Rafferty Law (Jude Law's son) and of course the Beckham boys all take to the spotlight in advertising campaigns, catwalks and magazine covers.

Penn is honest about the benefits of her family name, she told WWD:

“I know that my last name plays a huge part in getting certain jobs,I’m not oblivious to that fact. But I don’t think I would be hired for things if I was really wrong for the part. I also think a lot of it depends on personality, vibe, clicking with that designer, that crew or whatever.”
