Naomi Campbell’s career continues to climb to new heights!

On Thursday, the iconic supermodel shared that she is honored to celebrate her contribution to the fashion industry with a new exhibition that will be opening in London next year.

“I'm HONOURED to be asked by the V&A to share my life in clothes with the world,” Campbell, 53, wrote on Instagram.

“The V&A's fashion collection is one of the largest collections in the world, and it is a blessing to work with them to share my story,” she continued.

Included in her announcement was a photo of the United Kingdom-born businesswoman standing in a black pinstripe two-piece pantsuit. Staying true to her signature look, her jet-black hair was styled in a sleek middle part.

“Congrats style queen!,” fellow supermodel Cindy Crawford commented on the social media post.

Sex and the City actress Kristin Davis added, “This is so thrilling and deserved! I’m so happy that the world is getting to experience more of the real you, in all of your love and light✨✨✨✨✨⭐️🌟.”

Her exhibition, titled NAOMI, will be held at the Victoria and Albert Museum (commonly referred to as the V&A Museum) in South Kensington, London.

A statement found on the venue’s homepage calls it “The first exhibition of its kind exploring the extraordinary career of fashion model Naomi Campbell.”

“Through the work of leading global designers and photographers we celebrate her creative collaborations, activism and far-reaching cultural impact,” the statement continued.

In addition to Campbell’s retrospective, V&A has also held exhibitions paying homage to the work of David Bowie and Kylie Minogue.

NAOMI will feature select items from her very own wardrobe collection, plus approximately 100 of the pieces she’s worn on runways from luxury labels such as Alexander McQueen, Chanel, and Vivienne Westwood.

"Naomi Campbell’s extraordinary career intersects with the best of high fashion. She is recognised worldwide as a supermodel, activist, philanthropist, and creative collaborator, making her one of the most prolific and influential figures in contemporary culture. We’re delighted to be working with Naomi Campbell on this project and to celebrate her career with our audiences," Sonnet Stanfill, the V&A’s senior curator of fashion, said in a statement.

The exhibition will also feature the infamous Westwood high heels that Campbell wore when she walked (and tripped) down the runway in 1993.

The shoes will live on as a permanent fixture in the museum.

“I just wanted to make sure the girls were okay, that they could walk okay, that everyone's going to be strong and poised,” she said. “I was saying, ‘Strong, strong, strong, strong’ and ‘be yourself, let your personality show.’ ”

Soon after, she starred alongside Crawford, Linda Evangelista, and Christy Turlington in the Apple TV+ four-part docuseries The Super Models, which was released in late September.
