'Top heavy' Jordan in Vogue for looking demure

Jordan may be used to gracing the pages of lads’ magazines, but this month she stars in a somewhat less likely publication: American Vogue.

The glamour model appears in the classy style journal as part of its “shape issue” which examines women of varying shapes and sizes and what they should wear.

She is branded “top heavy“.

Having been “restyled” by the magazine, she is pictured in a shot by celebrity photographer David Bailey looking uncharacteristically demure in a Lanvin dress.

The accompanying article describes Jordan’s rise to fame for the American audience unfamiliar with her work, calling her a “living brand” with plenty of talent.

It also explains the word “chav” for US readers, saying: “Chavs is the latest moniker for Britain’s underprivileged white youthquake ... stereotypical adjectives are: binge-drinking, bling-loving, boob-displaying, Burberry-wearing.”

In the interview Jordan speaks about the lingerie range she is designing and how she writes her books – using a tape recorder.

“I talk,” she told the magazine. “I’m not going to say I sit there with a pen and paper – I don’t think anyone does that do they?”
