Firstly, the face of Lingerie Company Agent Provocateur dropped supermodel Kate Moss for want of young model and now, Miss. Moss has received another blow, as Burberry has also dropped her from their latest advertising campaign in favor of younger British faces.

Well, Burberry is not dumping Moss for the first time, prior to this, the fashion label dropped her in September 2005 following the accusations of cocaine snorting. However, Burberry became one of the first brands to rehire her last year.
But now Burberry bosses have revealed that their next campaign will feature models who are more than ten years younger than Kate is. The cast of the new Burberry campaign, shot by Mario Testino, includes 21-year-old Agyness Deyn, and 20-year-old Lily Donaldson, who will both feature in a series of ads along with up-and-coming indie brands The View and The Paddingtons. Both the models were featured on the cover of American Vogue in May 2007 as ‘the world’s next top models.’
Kate makes 30million pounds from her contracts with trendy brands and her Burberry deal is supposed to be worth around 1million pounds alone.
A Burberry spokesperson said,
We have worked with Kate Moss for over ten years on various campaigns. And though she does not feature in every campaign, she is still part of the Burberry family.
