Backstage at Burberry with model Neelam Johal
This Monday, I was in only the second fashion show of my life, and I’m happy to say it was again for Burberry Prorsum. They booked me on a global exclusive for the second season in a row and right now, I feel like the luckiest girl in the world!
Walking the Burberry Prorsum A/W '14-15 show in London on February 17, 2014.
The spring/summer ’14 show last year was my first time on the ramp, so I was really nervous and didn’t know what to expect. But by now, the people at Burberry are like a family to me, so I was excited and eager to catch up with everyone.
Before the show, I caught up with old friends, like [fellow Burberry model] Jourdan Dunn.
