‘We are thrilled to display a striking suit ensemble by BOSS, which encapsulates Naomi Campbell’s creative collaboration with the brand.’
Originally from south London, Naomi established herself among the top three most recognizable and in-demand models of the late 1980s.
Just before she turned 16, she was on the cover of British Elle and in 1987, she became British Vogue’s first black cover girl since 1966.
The model surprised fans last year by revealing she’d joined forces with the online fashion retailer PrettyLittleThing to create her Designed by Naomi Campbell collection.
In a recent two-part film, Naomi revealed she didn’t think the ‘younger generation’ even knew who she was.
Naomi could be seen donning a number of fashionable looks as she let the camera behind-the-scenes and gave a look at the creative process into her collection.
She told the camera: ‘I get to speak to a younger generation of which I didn’t think even knew who I was.’
‘When I think fashion, fashion does not discriminate. I can’t wait to see all these lovely young women wearing my designs.’
She added: ‘I want young girls to take from this collection to be themselves, to feel confident in how they wear these clothes and designed by me and interpret who they are in the clothes. So bringing their own essence, style swag to the outfits.’
