Jourdan Dunn is wearing a dress from Burberry’s Pre-Fall 2011 collection.

No luv, in order to get respect and to be a successful woman, black woman at that, you must have talent, work your ass off and be focused at all times! Earn that respect and success by showing that you have what it takes without being a bitch! Just work 10 times harder, no bitching needed!

I wonder what these successful women did to get to the top of their game?

Jourdan is back!  She took a break from her career to concentrate on motherhood after her first child was born, but now Jourdan Dunn is back the new face of Burberry.

The 20-year-old was discovered at the Hammersmith branch of Primark and went on to win Model of the Year in 2008. Jourdan was the first black model to feature in a Prada show in over ten years, and she has appeared in numerous high fashion editorials including the cover if Italian Vogue in an issue devoted entirely to black models. She also landed a starring role in YSL’s beauty campaign last month after her sabbatical following the birth of baby boy Riley in December 2009.

The 20-year-old, from London, was shot on Brighton Beach for the new campaign by renowned photographer Mario Testino alongside fellow model Sacha M’Baye.
