<\/div>

On an interview with the\u00a0AFP<\/strong>\u00a0, the famous model\u00a0Naomi Campbell<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0took the opportunity to point out her thoughts on the lack of black models on the catwalk.<\/p>

She reveals that her late friend,\u00a0Nelson Mandela, <\/strong>advised her to speak up about this issue.\u00a0So she took his advice literally, and revealed that she does not like to be always alone on\u00a0the catwalk<\/a>.<\/p>

The top model gave her opinion, saying \u00a0-\u00a0\"When I started my career, there were more models of colour on the catwalk,\"\u00a0<\/em><\/p>

In France in the 1970s, \u00a0Paco Rabanne<\/strong>\u00a0was the one who had the idea to integrate\u00a0models\u00a0with dark\u00a0skin tone.\u00a0Yves Saint Laurent<\/a>\u00a0then followed suit\u00a0and sent models with\u00a0varied\u00a0skin colour on the catwalk, including\u00a0Rebecca Ayoko<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0Katoucha Niane<\/strong>\u00a0.<\/p>

Today, Naomi Campbell is sadly spot on. However, there is no shortage of black models who\u00a0stand out - take a look at our list of the most successful, most beautiful dark beauties.<\/p>
