Supermodel Kate Moss has received another blow, for she has been dropped by Burberry from their latest advertising campaign in favour of younger British faces.

Upmarket fashion label Burberry originally dumped Moss following allegations of cocaine-snorting in September 2005, but became one of the first brands to rehire her last year.

But now Burberry bosses have revealed that their next campaign will feature models who are more than ten years younger than Kate, reports The Sun.

The cast of the new Burberry campaign, shot by Mario Testino, includes 21-year-old Agyness Deyn, and 20-year-old Lily Donaldson, who will both feature in a series of ads along with up-and-coming indie brands The View and The Paddingtons.

Kate makes 30million pounds from her contracts with trendy brands and her Burberry deal is believed to be worth around 1million pounds alone.

However, a Burberry spokesman insisted that Moss, who has featured in 11 of its past 15 campaigns, was "still part of the Burberry family".

This news comes just days after saucy undies firm Agent Provocateur dumped Kate, also in favour of a younger face. The underwear company paid Moss 500,000 pounds last year but has decided not to renew her contract.
