Supermodel accuses club of racism at her fashion launch
SUPERMODEL Jourdan Dunn has said she felt unwelcome at her own clothing range launch party, claiming the host club “does not like black people”.
According to reports, the model branded Reign, the exclusive London venue, “racist” after her brother was refused entry.
The party was to launch Ms Dunn’s Missguided x Jourdan Dunn clothing collection, with guests in attendance including Stormzy, Leigh-anne Pinnock, Gifty Louise, Felicity Hayward and Iskra Lawrence. Following the event, the supermodel took to Twitter to accuse Reign of “disgusting” treatment. An insider told Metro that Ms Dunn’s brother was on the guest list for the party but was refused entry by the manager of the club, forcing the
‘The way I was treated at my own event was disgusting. They don’t want our black a-- in the club’
27-year-old to leave her party and sort out the issues with management.
Reports suggested her brother was at first refused entry to the nightclub, but later allowed in.
She tweeted to her 284,000 followers: “Do not go to Reign nightclub. I repeat do not go to Reign nightclub, they don’t like black people! The way I was treated at my own event was disgusting. They want to play our music but they don’t want our black a-- in the club.”
Reign nightclub has been contacted for comment.
Hours before her Missguided party, Dunn sat front row at Burberry’s show wearing a plasticized lace trench coat, pink slip dress and pink-lensed sunglasses. Yesterday, Dunn closed Topshop’s catwalk show wearing a pale blue chiffon dress with a flowing train.
