Rapper Iggy Azalea has been revealed as the new face of the teens high-street shop Forever 21, alongside NBA star boyfriend Nick Young.

It has been an exciting year so far for the Australian singer, who’s seen her hits “Fancy”, “Work” and “Black Widow” topping the charts.

While building up her successful career, the 24-year-old rapper has taken the plunge into modelling. Back in 2012 the songstress reportedly signed with Wilhelmina Models agency and has now nabbed her first big campaign with the American fashion giant.

The couple, who have been dating since November 2013, posed together for Forever 21’s holiday collection, which as seen on the couple includes crop tops, cocktail dresses, cardigan, and pullovers in a variety of fabrics (metallic, sequins and cosy knits). The men’s collection involves sleek suiting in brushed flannel, wool blends and tweeds.

In one of the pictures, Azalea poses in a “fancy” glittering sequin dress while Los Angeles Lakers player sports a dapper suit. In the separate shots, Azalea looks flawless sporting a sleek pony tail paired up with her signature red lips, and other shots she sports a more relaxed look - hair down and natural make-up with nude lips.

This, however, is not the first time that the couple have paired up for a fashion shoot. Back in March Azalea and Young shot together for GQ magazine.

The collection is out today and is also be available in UK stores and online.
