Katie Holmes takes fashion inspiration from her five-year-old daughter.

The 32-year-old actress and husband Tom Cruise's Offspring Suri is known for her luxury wardrobe and Katie is astonished at the youngster's keen eye for style already.

She said: "My daughter has been choosing her own outfits since she was two. We go to fabric stores and sew together.

"Sometimes I take inspiration from Suri's fashion choices."

The 'Kennedys' star admits she only truly knows she has made a good fashion choice if her outfit is given the Seal of approval by her daughter.

She added to Britain's Marie Claire magazine: "Suri is my style critic. I know I look good when Suri asks if she can have my outfit when she's older.

"Suri is magical when it comes to clothes - she's quite an artist."

As well as looking to Suri for help, Katie enjoys taking inspiration from old fashioned Hollywood glamour for her red carpet wear.

She said: "When it's my own film premiere, I like the old Hollywood feel, it's glamorous and you can't go wrong.

"I like to keep my silhouette slim and elongated."
