Supermodel Agyness Deyn hates fashion

July 13th, 2009

British model Agyness Deyn insists she has no interest in the industry that made her name and won’t pursue a catwalk career forever.
She said: “You know, even though I’m in fashion, I don’t, like, do fashion. Fashion isn’t me, even though I work in it. It’s just materialistic stuff. I just want to do whatever makes me happy.”
The blonde beauty also claims she has never admired anyone else in the fashion industry, looking to 1970s music for her style icons.
She explained: “I liked guys quite a lot – like the Clash, you know, punky guys. Siouxsie and the Banshees, X-Ray Spex.”
Agyness – real name Laura Hollins – has become famed for her unique style, but insists she only takes inspiration from herself.
When asked three people who best encapsulate her personal style, she told the New York Times newspaper: “I’d say myself. I take little bits from loads of different people.”
