Naomi Campbell dazzles in next season's prints as she prepares to launch TV career

Her personal life often overshadows her professional one but clearly, Naomi Campbell still knows how to strike a pose.

The supermodel, who lives in Moscow with her Russian billionaire boyfriend Vladislav Doronin, will mentor aspiring models on the show, which is being made by Oxygen network.
As styled by Giovanna Battaglia, she has been photographed for W in designs by Louis Vuitton, Miu Miu, Prada, Marc Jacobs, Dolce & Gabbana, Etro and Mary Katrantzou.

Photographed by Australian-born snapper Emma Summerton, she also shows off a range of accessories such as a Fendi iPad case, a Missoni clutch, a Bally handbag and Yves Saint Laurent heels.
Miss Campbell, who is rumoured to be looking to buy a villa in Ibiza with Mr Doronin, offered the magazine some advice for younger, less experienced models.

She said: 'Whatever you do, do it 110per cent. That's what my mother taught me, and it's what I've always believed in.'
It seems that the model had prepared plenty of advice in preparation for her small screen role.
Two other high-profile personalities will join Miss Campbell on the show but they are yet to be announced.
Each of the contestants on the show will be competing to become the face of a major brand.

She is certainly well-equipped to give advice to the hopefuls - though her famously fiery temper promises entertaining on-screen moments.
In a press release announcing the news, she said: 'With The Face the audience will get a real insider’s look at this exciting industry that has been so good to me.
She told W magazine that she is a big fan of reality TV.
'I love the Real Housewives - all of them,' she said. 'Of course, I would never expose myself in that way. But I'm happy to share my experiences.'
Although she is renowned for her career in fashion, the supermodel is no stranger to the world of TV.
In 1988, she had a guest role on The Cosby Show.
Miss Campbell has been dating Mr Doronin since 2008.
She originally lived in the UK before relocating to Moscow to be with him.
The couple have a property portfolio that includes houses in Moscow, a private island in Turkey, a luxury retreat in Jamaica and a mansion in Miami.
