Tobey Maguire New Face Of Prada Menswear (PHOTOS)

Tobey Maguire is upgrading his spandex spidey gear for some high fashion duds.

Maguire is the new face of Prada menswear for the fall/winter 2011 season, reports Vogue UK. The 35-year-old actor posed for the ad campaign, shot by David Sims in New York, in slim sweaters, turtlenecks, and a three-button jacket.

The unlikely model, who has shown little interest in fashion in the past, is quoted by Vogue UK as saying:

"A great supporter of the Arts, Miuccia Prada has inspired a culture of creativity that is woven through every aspect of her company, from her collections, her campaigns, to every design detail in her stores [...] I have such admiration for her artistry and I'm thrilled to be a part of Prada's fall campaign."

For more of the newly-stylish Maguire, keep your eyes open for Baz Luhrmann's upcoming "The Great Gatsby" reboot...perhaps we'll even see a few Prada costumes?

Design Rule #1: never showcase one thing that can be confused for another. Case in point: Prada's choice of Maguire; now, tell me he doesn't look - especially in the second picture - just like k d Laing.

Not surprised at all. Tobey Maguire's got a great look.

I see he is doing the whole emo-Peter Parker look he had in the 3rd Spiderman movie...I didn't like him as Spiderman initially, but he grows on you and did a great job.

An interesting choice, really. Tobey is attractive, in these photos and in films, but in a slightly odd way - he's got a special nerdy charm about him. I liked him in Pleasantville and even more in The Cider House Rules. Not so much in Spiderman, but I'm not keen on superhero films. :-)))

Cider House Rules...great movie. I also thought he was great in Seabiscuit.

This can't be serious, HIM?...He really married into and knows all the right people. Must be real nice....
