#JourdanDunn is a #British supermodel. She was discovered in 2006 & began appearing on international runways in 2007. In February 2008, she was the first #Black model to walk a #Prada runway in over a decade since #NaomiCampbell. She was also the first #BlackBritish model to make the Forbes Models Rich List in 2014 & was declared an Icon by models.com. Shes won several Model of the Year & Women of the Year awards in fashion. Shes considered to be one of the #millennial generation's supermodels. She was born in London. Shes of #Jamaican #Grenadian & #SyrianLebanese descent. She was self conscious as a teen, due to her height & weight. Growing up, people would tell her she could be a model, but she was apprehensive. She said shows like #ANTM intrigued her, as they gave her a new perspective of the job. Now Gen Z models can look up to her for guidance; from speaking up about racism & discrimination in the fashion industry & having a successful career after giving birth at 18, which is taboo in high fashion. "Having a son made me realise I have to make shit work: Im his voice, Im his lifeline, I have to be driven. He pushed me in the right direction. Ive always been ambitious, but now I have more focus. I'm more hardworking." Being discovered at age 15, she grew up fast. She was a fashion star but she was very articulate, observant & very smart as a teen & still is. When she was 18, her comments about race made headlines & have been ever since. At London Fashion Week she said: "London's not a White city. So why should our catwalks be so White?" Critics fired back with the industry having to bow to customer demands - which is White, thin & blonde. "Seeing Naomi & Tyra when I was growing up made me believe I could be a model. I cant think of other names who could have inspired teenage black girls. I dont see a change. It needs to be said because I think about these things & other girls do too." She wants to establish a #multiracial modeling agency. "When I go back to school, Im studying business. I'd do an agency for Black girls; & Asian & Latinx, because there aren't enough of them on the runway either." 🇯🇲🇬🇩🇸🇾🇱🇧 #mixedgirl #whm #womenshistorymonth https://www.instagram.com/p/CbTMBT3untQ/?utm_medium=tumblr
