She might have married a prince, but Kendra Spears hasn't given up the day job, as these exclusive images from Next's newest campaign reveal.

The model, 25, is now known as the Princess Salwa Aga Khan after marrying Prince Rahmin Aga Khan, the 42-year-old eldest son and heir of the Aga Khan, in August.

But despite her royal status - and her husband's estimated £800 million fortune - it seems the American model has no intention of retiring.

Elegant in a glamorous burgundy lace cocktail frock and chic petrol blue jumpsuit, the brunette beauty looks a million dollars in the photos for the British high street brand, which were shot on location in New York by rising talent, Victor Demarchelier.

The campaign, which will be unveiled officially on the 31st October, is the second to feature Spears.

 

The model seems busier than ever since marriage: along with fronting Next's most recent campaigns, she has also appeared in advertising for Prada, Calvin Klein, Etro and Diane von Furstenburg.

Magazine appearances have included starring on the covers of Vogue China and Elle France, and in editorial spreads for Dazed & Confused, V and Vogue Italia.

In addition to the burgundy lace showstopper of a dress, Spears' current campaign for Next also sees her prowling the streets of New York in a chic black T-shirt dress and a stunning suede and leather biker jacket.

Other likely hits include a delicate champagne silk slip that neatly captures this season's key lingerie trend, a cosy faux fur jacket and a series of super-soft pastel knits vamped up with skinny leather trousers.

And Spears isn't the only star of Next's new campaign with a fashion pedigree to be proud of.

Photographer Demarchelier, 28, is the youngest son of legendary snapper Patrick and has an impressive reputation in the fashion world.

Although the Next campaign is his first, he has worked for some of the magazine world's biggest names with Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Vanity Fair and GQ all featuring on his CV.

Poor love can't be a supermodel if she can't bag a bloke worth 1bn plus sterling!

How can she be a super model when no ones heard of her before?

The U.S. is not the only country that produces someone into the category of Super Model, just where exactly do you think the main fashion industry is, at a guess I would say Europe!

How sad to see some of the comments here... and they we criticize when we have little girls and boys bullying others... don't we have anything nice to say anymore? I mean especially of someone we don't know personally? *shes very pretty, and i love the burgundy dress! I wish it looked on me as good as it looks on her!

Agha khan pretty much bought his title with his money. Sure his ancestors were political and religious leaders, but they are turning in their raves every time someone calls agha khan a prince.

I'm just not impressed with her looks. Kinda bleh, but not ugly, for sure. :-/

How is she a supermodel? I'd never heard of her before she married some guy with a nonexistent "prince" title.
