British supermodel and Vogue cover girl Jourdan Dunn is included in next week’s Spring 2010 fashion show package—even though she is expecting.
19-year-old Jourdan Dunn, who is currently with Women Models, is pregnant with her boyfriend’s child and will be gracing the Spring shows, baby bump and all. Perhaps some designers will feel inspired at the last minute and infiltrate some maternity wear into their collection!
I guess you can’t accuse the fashion industry of size discrimination anymore…
