Thanks, big sis! It's a Watson double act as Emma recruits her brother for Burberry

She is a star of film and fashion and has flown the nest to study in the U.S. but hasn't forgotten her roots. The 19-year-old actress appears to have secured her brother a job modelling alongside her for Burberry's Spring/Summer 2010 collection.
Executives at the brand signed up 17-year-old Alex for their latest national advertising campaign, shot by Mario Testino.

No sibling rivalry here: poses with her younger brother Alex for Burberry's Spring/Summer 2010 campaign

It is the second campaign for Burberry that the 19-year-old has taken part in, and looks as though it will be as successful as her first.
Also appearing in the campaign are George Craig, frontman of indie band One Night Only; Matt Gilmour, the son of Pink Floyd’s David Gilmour; and model, Max Hurd, a grandson of the former Foreign Secretary, The Lord Hurd of Westwell. 
The adverts feature three of the Burberry fashion brands, Prorsum, London and Brit, all designed by Christopher Bailey, the current British designer of the year.
But the aspirational high-fashion brand which has undergone a renaissance in recent  years after the iconic print became a favourite among 'chavs' is hardly affordable for most people Emma's age.

A woman's classic trenchcoat starts from an eye-watering £625, and the same goes for the pricey menswear modelled by Emma's equally youthful brother.
Emma, best known for her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies, said during the shoot: 'Today is really special for me in a number of different ways.

 
'It's so nice to see Mario and Christopher again. They also shot my brother in the campaign.
'He's having such a great time. He's so psyched.'

It is the first modelling assignment for Alex, who has also appeared as an extra in Harry Potter And The Order Of The Phoenix, but he has now been snapped up by London model agency Storm.
He said: 'It's such an honour to be a part of this. It's really exciting.'
Christopher Bailey, Burberry's chief creative officer, said they were thrilled to be working with Emma again.

'We've worked again with who has a classic, effortless beauty and is incredibly talented,' he said.
'We wanted this kind of eclectic but very cool crowd of people.'
He added: 'We always talk about how much fun we have making these images and I wanted to capture some of the excitement that you feel on set when all these different creative attitudes and personalities come together.
'Mario has shot these as both stills and video so we can share some of that energy with a wider audience.'
