Life's Too Short To Bullshit.

I Loved Watching So Many Of The Great Designers I've Worked With Do What They Do. That's Why I'm Still Loyal To The Designers That I've Known Since I Was 16.

I Dream Of A World Liberated Of All Diseases. Ignorance Also Upsets Me A Lot. How Can One Calmly Look At The Pictures From Rwanda And Not Instantly Want To Take Action And Try To Ease The Suffering?

Well, In Brief, I Was Discovered By A Lady Called Beth Boldt. She Had Also Been A Model. She Used To Take Pictures Of The Girls She Found, And She Took A Picture Of Me One Day In My School Uniform, And It All Kind Of Started From There.

I Love Mentoring Young Girls. I've Always Been Like That.

Patrick Demarchelier Was The One Who Got Me My First Vogue Cover. It Was French Vogue - I Think In ’87 Or ’88. I Think I Was The First Black Model To Be On The Cover Of French Vogue, Which Was Shocking To Me Because When I Asked Them About It, They Were Like, "oh, No. We’ve Never Had That Before."
