Start of Career:

Modeling---Prior to her professional acting career, Miller worked as a photographic model. Miller has also been closely associated with the style of fashion that became known as boho chic, much of which fashion followers noted was strikingly similar to the style of model Kate Moss.

Acting---In her early career, Miller performed in several amateur New York City plays including The Striker, Independence, and Oscar-winning director Anthony Minghella's Cigarettes & Chocolate. In 2001, she made her film début with South Kensington, with Rupert Everett and Elle Macpherson.

Fashion Design---In 2006, it was announced that Miller would design a fashion capsule for Pepe Jeans; the project was later expanded to become a complete fashion label. Called Twenty8Twelve, it gets its name from Miller's date of birth and is financially backed by Pepe Jeans. The collection, which Miller designed with her sister Savannah, a professional fashion designer, launched in September 2007.

Personal Life:

Miller's relationship with Alfie co-star Jude Law, was constantly featured in the entertainment press. On Christmas Day of 2004, they became engaged. On July 8, 2005, Law issued a public apology to Miller for having an affair with the nanny of his children.[12] Despite attempting to salvage their constant on/off relationship, Miller and Law finally separated the following November.

Miller dated Welsh actor Rhys Ifans from August 2007 - June 2008. Miller said of the split, "I really thought I was very ready to settle down, but then I realised I wanted to be selfish for just a little bit longer."

After her relationship with Ifans ended, Miller began a relationship with actor and father of four, Balthazar Getty, who was married to designer Rosetta Getty (née Millington) at the time they got together.
