Jourdan, aged 15, was scouted by an agent from Storm Management, while accompanying a friend in a London Primark.
She is of Jamaican, Syrian and Grenadian descent.
She began appearing on international runways in early 2007. In February 2008 she was the first black model to walk a Prada runway in over a decade.
April 2014 she became the new face for Maybelline New York
July 2014 she was declared an icon by models.com.
Jourdan is considered one of her generation’s supermodels.
Unfortunately she has had to defend her colour, culture and hair in an industry of vultures time and time again who only see white skin as perfect.
