I might have gone on and on about Tanya D. during fashion week, but Natalie would not shut up about Jourdan Dunn.
“You have to see this girl!” she gasped, post ThreeAsFour, “I couldn’t take my eyes off her!”
So I kept my eyes peeled, and when I saw her saunter at Peter Som, I had to agree. Her look: Regal cheekbones and exaggerated cat-eyes. Her walk: One of the best I’d seen.
Though she walked Marc Jacobs and Ralph Lauren last year, her big break came when Kate Moss chose her as the face of Kate’s Christmas collection for Topshop. She went on to walk twenty shows last week and Gap just released the first image from her new ad campaign, at left.
You might not understand our love for models, but really, who wouldn’t want to look at (or like) a girl like that?

There’s really no need to apologize for your model-mania. Being that most models get the s**t end of the stick, its nice to see people taking time for the little.. er.. tall/skinny people.
I read of her being scouted in an east London branch of Primark two years ago and walking in DVF and a few other shows that year. I’m so excited about her success now but moreso that reading the free dailies is sometimes worthwhile!
yeah, she’s fucking amazing. i don’t understand why she’s barely getting all of this work.
she really is very very striking…
she did bill blass fall 2007…they put this horrible bobbed wig on her…i still have nightmares…but yeah, she’s amazing, and a lot more visible now that it seems like every designer is determined to put at least two black girls in every show. One black girl is a token, but two is diversity, right?
herve leger! that girl squiggled and shimmied lovely in that show.
She also walked Ralph Lauren show for fall 07.
