The Star Early Edition

Jourdan Dunn to be the face of Swarovski

-

JOURDAN Dunn is set to star in Swarovski’s new jewellery campaign.

The 26-year-old model has partnered with the accessorie­s company and is set to appear in the label’s autumn/winter 2017 commercial titled #BeBrillian­t alongside Orange Is The New Black actress Ruby Rose, Fei Fei Sun and Swarovski’s brand ambassador, Karlie Kloss.

And the catwalk icon – who has a seven-year-old son, Riley – has hinted she is honoured to have been selected to join forces with the fashion house because she believes accessorie­s are an essential part of every outfit, and that “timeless pieces” are the perfect finishing touch for an evening ensemble.

She said: “The day is all about rings and bracelets for me – timeless pieces that go with anything. The night is always about a necklace or statement earrings.”

The luxury label says the forthcomin­g range reflects the true heritage of the brand, and depicts “modern glamour with an extraordin­ary twist”.

Speaking about the designs featured in the #BeBrillian­t line, Swarovski’s creative director, Nathalie Colin, said: “This collection represents my creative vision for the brand, respecting and nurturing the exceptiona­l Swarovski heritage… Swarovski is all about modern glamour – with an extraordin­ary twist.”

Meanwhile Jourdan, who made her runway debut in 2007 aged 16, said that after being at the helm of the fashion industry for a decade, she was left feeling tired with her busy work schedule.

Speaking previously, she said: “I say that every show season it can be a lot (of work), and you’re travelling and it takes a lot out of you, and I get emotional when I’m tired and hungry and rushed up and down.

“Fashion weeks are only two months out of the year, and I can go back to my usual routine and try and be in the moment.” – Bang Showbiz
