She arrived on the modelling scene much earlier than her British counterpart, Cara Delevingne.
But it seems that all of Jourdan Dunn's hard work has finally paid off as she scoops up the Model prize at Harper's Bazaar Women Of The Year Awards on Tuesday evening.
The 23-year-old looked stunning in her monochrome ensemble whilst she posed for the cameras whilst holding her award at Claridge's hotel, on Brook Street.

The black and white panel dress was completed with a sexy side-split to highlight the model's statuesque physique.
Jourdan accessorised with a black clutch bag and a delicate silver ring and bracelet whilst leaving her long raven locks to tumble over her shoulder.
She had to qualms about giving smouldering looks to the cameras, which only highlighted her flawless complexion and magnificent cheekbones.

Jourdan, who was first discovered in a Primark store in Hammersmith, was not the only one to pick up a prestigious award at the ceremony which honours women from the worlds of art, fashion, film and music.
American actress Gillian Anderson opted for full-on gothic glamour as she hit the red carpet in the capital, dazzling in a black satin splayed-hem gown with floral embellishment.
She scooped up the Television Icon award at the event, for her many roles including playing Dana Skully in hit TV series The X Files.

Although David could not attend the prestigious occasion, Victoria Beckham did not fly solo as she attended the 2013 Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year Awards at London's Claridge's Hotel on Tuesday evening.
The 39-year-old designer was accompanied by her handsome teenage son Brooklyn, 14, as she picked up the coveted Special Contribution to British Fashion award at the star-studded event.
