Smokin’ Jennifer Hawkins brings sexy back at Myer fashion show

mija — Sun, 21 Mar 2010 12:24:52 +0000

Myer launched its autumn-winter fashion collections in sultry style, with supermodel Jennifer Hawkins opening the show draped across a glossy grand piano.
The Sidney Myer Music Bowl parade oozed sex appeal across high-impact looks for the cooler months, from 1980s black with punches of orange by Cue, to Karen Walker’s classic French styling, Wayne Cooper’s black on black, given texture and definition through metallics, leather and ruffles, and 1940s-inspired tailoring by Aurelio Costarella.
Architectural shapes were the theme, with models stalking the runway in striking silhouettes created by blazers with exaggerated shoulders, frocks cinched in at the waist, thigh-skimming pencil skirts and spray-on tights.
Highlights included Hawkins, the face of the retail giant, in a skin-tight red leather Charlie Brown dress, and a Manning Cartell cut-out leather bodice and thigh-high boots.
Fairytale gowns by Melbourne’s own Toni Maticevski, in dishevelled, vaporous layers, a slate-grey palette of relaxed pants and fine knits by TL Wood, and Nina Maya’s floral prints, contrasted by leather and metallics of other designers, offered softer sensuality.
The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, playing its first large-scale fashion parade, was backed by a pumping contemporary soundtrack, setting a sophisticated mood.
Nick Bracks, son of ex-premier Steve, was among models in ripped jeans and distressed-leather jackets by Saxony, masculine double-breasted coats over collegiate knits and blazers by Country Road and debonair slim leg suits by Hugo Boss.
Models strode the runway in Brit Alexander McQueen’s affordable line, McQ, in a tribute to the late designer.
Hawkins said black was a perfect wardrobe staple, paired with leggings, strong jackets, and ankle boots with stud and chain details. “It is really rock ‘n’ roll and chic, there is a lot of charcoal, and black obviously, but then you have lots of jewel colours like red and blue and lots of metallics.”
VIP guests – including Rebecca Twigley and Chris Judd, model Laura Dundovic, Lauren Phillips, music supremo Michael Gudinski, and Melbourne Storm star Billy Slater – partied on after, with the catwalk transformed into a nightclub.

Lily Cole doesn’t get a look in for new Rimmel ad

mija — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 11:55:12 +0000

She may be studying at Cambridge, but it seems that Lily Cole’s qualifications don’t impress the cosmetics firm Rimmel any more.
The supermodel-turned-student is one of Rimmel’s faces – but may not appear in its summer advertising campaign.
Solange Knowles, sister of singer Beyonce, is being lined up to take part alongside American actress Zooey Deschanel.
‘Lily is unlikely to have her contract renewed,’ says an insider.
‘Rimmel want to appeal to US audiences and are planning to launch their new faces soon.’
Georgia May Jagger and Coca Rocha have already signed up for the campaign.
A spokesman for Rimmel declined to comment.
Lazy days for Chelsy
When Chelsy Davy deferred a placement with a leading law firm to travel the world last year, she planned an ambitious itinerary.
But apart from a brief holiday with Prince Harry in Mauritius at the start of the year, Chelsy, 24, hasn’t made it further than her home in South Africa.
‘Chelsy has just spent ten days in Cape Town. She was planning to go to Asia, but those plans are on ice,’ says a chum.
‘She wanted to come back to the UK and see Harry.
‘She is definitely going back to Cape Town in June for the World Cup and Harry’s hoping to go but it depends on his training.
Chelsy’s apartment overlooks the football stadium – it’s in the best possible location.’
Princess Eugenie’s charity Tanzania trip

The 19-year-old Newcastle University student has also been quietly campaigning for the Janada L. Batchelor Foundation, another African children’s charity.
‘Eugenie is a relatively new supporter of JBFC and she has been working for Ace Africa.’ said a friend. ‘She’s visited Tanzania privately.’

‘I didn’t think I would make it to 40. I’m not proud of what I’ve done,’ Naomi Campbell on her regrets

mija — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 11:46:58 +0000

She attacks assistants with bejewelled mobile phones and screams at airline staff. She’s also defied a broken childhood to inspire a generation. Now approaching 40, she gives Live a credible impression of a diva desiring desperately to atone
Inside a large studio in east London, photographers, assistants, stylists and make-up artists are waiting, and waiting, for Naomi Campbell. Some are very anxious. Others – the more experienced, I presume – are more resigned as time ticks slowly by. This is part of the deal with the notorious Naomi, the model with a record for bad behaviour as long as those endless Modigliani legs. Indeed, ‘late’ is at the bottom of the list, under tantrums, fights, drug abuse, alcohol issues and several assault charges, including hurling jewel-encrusted mobile phones at assistants.
A clamour of ever-greater demands announces her imminent arrival. Here, a manicurist has to be procured in minutes. There, an announcement goes out that all glass windows must be blocked out for her privacy. Quick! Gel tips for her fingernails must hastily be put on a bike. Now her publicist arrives with her waxing lady, Gina.
And finally, a mere one hour and 40 minutes behind schedule, the studio door flies open and in trips Naomi. She’s dressed all in black – tight leggings, a tailored frock coat and heels. Even in that first split second you can see that she’s preternaturally beautiful. Hair and make-up people fly to their positions in the dressing room. The blackout door booms shut.
Fifteen minutes later, it’s open again: Naomi is ready. She smiles, sticks out her hand and engages instantly. I tell her she appears to make people nervous. She throws her head back and laughs out loud.
‘Hey, you’re not the only ones. I get nervy about myself,’ she tells me in her softly spoken transatlantic drawl.
As icebreakers go, it’s a pickaxe. Circus aside – and it is a three-ring, world-touring circus – Naomi has quite clearly undergone a major transformation. There appears to be real credibility to the reports of her graduation from the selfish, ego-driven supermodel to the girl who Sarah Brown nominated as her ’21st-century heroine’ and Nelson Mandela calls his ‘honorary granddaughter’. This becomes increasingly evident during our conversation, which amounts less to an interview and more to a rather touching confessional about her appalling past behaviour, revealing an apparent determination now to do the right thing.
First, though, I must try hard to focus on what Naomi says, because, sitting just inches away from her face, it’s impossible not to be distracted. Two months away from her 40th birthday (May 22), her skin is completely unlined and there are no telltale signs of Botox or discreet surgery. And yet this is a girl who’s done it all to excess.
‘I’m not perfect. Look,’ she says, pointing earnestly to her mouth. ‘I have this scar on my upper right lip. When I started modelling I was told to fix it. I never did.’
Naomi says she’s looking forward to turning 40, but she’s chillingly aware of how close she came to becoming another casualty of the modelling world.
‘I thought I’d never actually make this birthday,’ she says.
‘I’ve had times when it was hard for me to look at myself in the mirror, because I didn’t really like who I was. The period from 1998 until 2005 was very difficult. I had to work out what was important – what I wanted to change and what I wasn’t happy with.
‘The thing with modelling is that we’re so used to travelling. The thought of just sitting still and having to digest and to think is scary, so you avoid it. It’s terrifying to look in the mirror and face all your fears.
‘I have people around me who tell me I’m beautiful. But that goes in one ear and comes out the other. Anger wasn’t the only one of my issues – I have lots of them. I had to get clean and stay in the AA programme. I understand what keeps me on the right path. I don’t go every single day; I just go when I need to and I have my sponsor.
‘Everyone knows what I’ve gone through. I’m human, I make mistakes, but I’ve come clean on them all. I don’t deny them. I’ve taken the heat and felt highly embarrassed by a lot of them. I’m not proud of the things I’ve done and the incidents that have happened in my life, and I would never say I was. But I did something about it. I’m not above learning lessons.
‘My family and my friends have helped. I don’t like yes-people. I don’t want yes-people around me; I think they’re extremely dangerous. I like people who are honest with me and tell me the truth. I can take it. I have much more respect for someone who tells me the truth. My real friends tell it to me like it is; I don’t need “enablers”. I need people who tell me what’s what.’

Happily, there seems to be a lot less prima-donna behaviour nowadays. The only recent report of an apparent ‘incident’ came a few days after our interview, when a limousine driver claimed the model hit him from behind in the car. Just when we were all thinking ‘there she goes again’, Naomi’s PR team insisted there should be no rush to judgement, and they were soon proved right. The driver declined to press charges, apologising to her and admitting that he had ‘got angry and overreacted’.
Naomi told Live, ‘I’ve worked very hard on correcting my previous wrongdoings and I won’t be held hostage by my past behaviour. I always try to treat people with respect. I’m pleased the misunderstanding’s behind me. I’ve moved on.’
So do we reckon this new Naomi really is here to stay? She clearly thinks so.
‘I’ve matured. I stop myself from getting tired and burnt out. I want a quieter life today. I’ve been through the party scene. You get older and your life changes. Things that matter to you when you’re 20 don’t matter so much when you’re approaching 40.’
Naomi has had a life quite unlike any other, mainly because she’s been famous for most of it, beginning long before her modelling days. She appeared in a music video for Bob Marley’s Is This Love? aged seven. Four years later she tap-danced in a Culture Club video. She was still only 15 when she appeared on the cover of Elle magazine, and two years later she made modelling history by becoming the first black model to front French Vogue.
Yet the circumstances of her childhood were far removed from the glamour of her early career. Her father, who she has never publicly named, walked out on her 18-year-old mother, Valerie, just two months after she was born. While her mother earned her living travelling in Europe as a dancer, the young Naomi was left in the care of a nanny and then enrolled at the Italia Conti Academy stage school with the aim of following in her mother’s steps.

Her extraordinary looks changed everything. She was making millions a few years after embarking on a modelling career and, along with fellow ’supers’ Kate Moss, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer, she dominated the Nineties. Appearing in many more music videos (for George Michael, Michael Jackson and others), in Madonna’s controversial book Sex and on the yacht of many a rock star and tycoon, she was briefly engaged to U2’s Adam Clayton before moving on to Mike Tyson, Sly Stallone, John F Kennedy Jr, Robert De Niro, Joaqu�n Cort�s and Flavio Briatore.
She is now dating Russian billionaire Vladislav Doronin – the man for whom she has said she’s quitting the UK. ‘We’re leaving London – I don’t live here any more. I live in Moscow now permanently and I really love life there.’
Her career hasn’t been entirely without struggles. Shortly after Obama’s election, she said, ‘You know, the American president may be black, but as a black woman, I am still an exception in this business. I always have to work harder to be treated equally.’
Today her position has mellowed a little, but she remains critical.
‘I don’t like to use the word “racism”. I said ” territorialism”. I still feel it could be opened up more in the sense of using more women from every ethnicity. I went to see Vivienne Westwood’s show and I was happy to see models of colour on the runway. I think London has always been open to it. When I started off there were always women of colour in the French shows, so when there were suddenly none it was very bizarre.’
Naturally, Naomi’s concerns about equality in the fashion industry are less well known than the tales of her tantrums. Several seem to involve phones, and assistants who are slow to duck. In 2000 she pleaded guilty to the assault of a personal assistant. In 2003 another former assistant sued, claiming the model had thrown a phone at her during a fit of rage in a Beverly Hills hotel. In 2004 her maid claimed to have been slapped around the face – Naomi countered that she’d been hit first. In 2005 her personal assistant alleged Naomi had smacked her round the head with a BlackBerry.
Throughout this period she was taking cocaine, because it made her feel, in her words, ‘invincible… like you could conquer the world’. The result was that she got arrested on suspicion of assaulting her drugs counsellor, she was described as ‘a violent superbigot’ by a housekeeper, and when her New York maid couldn’t find a particular pair of jeans, she reportedly attacked her with a jewel-encrusted phone, leaving a wound that required stitches. For that last incident she was given five days’ community service, slopping out public toilets.
‘I wasn’t above it,’ she says. ‘Cleaning the floor or wiping walls or chairs or windows.’
In 2008 Naomi’s temper again got the better of her when her luggage went missing at Heathrow. After kicking and spitting at police at the airport she was sentenced to 200 hours working in a soup kitchen.
‘What did surprise me was that when I did my community service in England, I was left alone to do it quietly.’
So why was she such a thundering menace? And how do we know she won’t be again?
‘What happened in my past is that I would work until I was no good to myself. Now I’ve stopped the parties, stopped trying to burn the candle at both ends. I’ve come to learn you’re not missing anything by not going to everything. I work ten days, hard, and then I take a week off – and that’s how I do it. I’m not shirking blame for anything I did. I blame myself. I’m responsible for all my actions. But I’m also responsible for making those changes.’
Unsurprisingly, the team around Naomi are very keen for us (and everyone) to move off the subject of her past. One of the ways in which she has changed – and hopes to change our perception of her – is by throwing herself more and more into the charity work she began when she was introduced to Nelson Mandela.
‘I met him first in 1992 and he got me working on a children’s charity fund a year later. It was the first time I felt I was doing something useful, giving back to kids less fortunate than me. It has become more important as I’ve grown up and changed. I like to fight for a cause, to do something. Even in my bad times I’d try. But I’m very protective of the children – for example, not having cameras around when I’m with them, because I’m not going to use children for public adulation. I’ve always known this was something I could do.’
Her relationship with Mandela, her ‘honorary grandfather’, has clearly been a major factor in her redemption.
‘I don’t know why he reached out to me or what he sees in me. Every time I’ve made a mistake he’s told me to keep my head up and keep going. Sometimes it’s hard because I feel so much shame. But a lot of it I do for him. It seems to always happen that every time I get in trouble, I see him right after. He never tells me off. He just tells me to keep going, which is something that’s been hard to do.’
At the suggestion of Sarah Brown, who counts Naomi as part of her inner circle, the model has become a global ambassador for the White Ribbon Alliance, a charity focused on preventing deaths during pregnancy and childbirth in developing countries. The two women are often pictured together, and you can’t help but wonder how Mrs Brown must feel standing alongside one of the most beautiful women in the world. Naomi shakes her head: ‘Are you kidding? It’s me who’s in awe of her. She’s never worried about how she looks.’
A recent charity outing was at Fashion For Relief Haiti, which saw her stomping down the catwalk with Live’s own Piers Morgan to raise money and awareness for the victims of the recent earthquake.
‘It’s just about bringing people together for something positive.’
And is she positive about her own future?
‘It may be odd for a model to say this, but you make more sense of yourself as you get older. I’m so much calmer.’
So, no more temper tantrums?
‘I’m not perfect. I’m very much a work in progress. But I’m trying. I’m working on my faults. That’s all you can do – work on them.’
Clothes from the New York & London Fashion For Relief shows in aid of Haiti are on sale at net-a-porter.com until March 28

Model Gisele Bundchen shares her tips for the perfect post-baby figure… kung fu, yoga and don’t treat your body like a dustbin

mija — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 13:08:51 +0000

Model Gisele Bundchen kept her supermodel figure in check with a dance workout at a studio in Los Angeles.
The world’s highest paid model emerged sweaty and glowing after she enjoyed one of her daily high-intensity workouts.
A keen yoga devotee, the 29-year-old Brazilian gave birth to son Benjamin Rein in December.
And recently she shared her candid tips on how to look good post-pregnancy. The model snapped back into runway shape just weeks after giving birth.

In a new interview with Vogue magazine she revealed how post-birth she regained her figure instantly with little more effort than some yoga on a mat in her living room.
‘I think it’s muscle memory,’ she told Vogue.
Or it may have been the continuous exercise during her pregnancy.
She also admitted: ‘I did kung fu up until two weeks before Benjamin was born, and yoga three days a week.’
And in typically outspoken fashion, she gave her opinion on where some women go wrong when pregnant.
She said: ‘I think a lot of people get pregnant and decide they can turn into garbage disposals [dustbin].
‘I was mindful about what I ate, and I gained only 30 pounds,’ she added proudly.
Gisele is married to New England Patriots football star Tom Brady, who also has a son, John, aged two. John’s mother is Sex And The City actress Bridget Moynahan who the football star dated for two years.
Gisele upset John Edward’s mother Moynahan when she said she considered him her very own child.
Without mentioning her name in the Vaity Fair article, she said: ‘It’s not like because somebody else delivered him, that’s not my child. I already feel like he’s my son, from the first day.’
Earlier this year the model said her eight-hour birth ‘didn’t hurt in the slightest’.

I shared my bed with Agyness Deyn..until I was kicked out for another man

mija — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 12:59:26 +0000

Pal Henry Holland spills the beans on their 13-year friendship
As the hottest supermodel in the world Agyness Deyn isn’t short of men who want to sleep with her.
But a word of warning from her best friend… she snores like a freight train!
And she’s liable to kick you on to the couch if she gets a better offer.
In an exclusive interview with the Mirror, Agy’s oldest pal Henry Holland spills the beans on their 13-year friendship.
Fashion designer Henry has been close with Agy – then a mousy-haired schoolgirl called Laura Hollins – since they were 13 years old and she served him a fish supper at the chippie where she worked after school in their native Lancashire.

Fast forward a few years and Henry, now 26, is designing posh frocks for A listers including Lindsay Lohan, Naomi Campbell and Sienna Miller as well as this week launching a more affordable range H! for Debenhams.
And Agy is gracing the world’s catwalks while coining in a ?3million fortune from her Manhattan base. It’s a far cry from those days back in Ramsbottom when they were teenagers yearning for an exciting life in London.
Henry, who now lives in North London with his boyfriend, says: “Agy and me used to go in the chip shop every Friday she worked there and we used to take the p*** out of the woman in the tabard.
“We had a lot of mutual friends and there was a dry ski slope near us that we used to go to all the time. We used to snowboard down there. And then when we went to college we spent a lot of time together. We have both worked really hard and we have pushed each other really hard.
“I lived with Agyness for three years as she started out modelling and it was hard work, really hard for her.
“A lot of girls get shot by Mario Testino when they are 15 and that’s it, their careers are made. For others like Agy, it is tough tough work, not easy at all.
“We both supported each other and when I was working in magazines she thought it was amazing. And when I got promoted to fashion assistant she was there supporting me.”
The final member of the Ramsbottom Three is their other close friend Jessica Fletcher, another schoolmate who now works as head of sales for his House of Holland and H! ranges.
“I met Jess when I was 11 and now she works with me and lives three doors down from me,” explains Henry.
“We all got together years ago, we were three best friends. I came first because I came to study here then Agyness came to do some modelling part time as she had some work down here.
“She would come and stay with me in my halls of residence and she would sleep in my single bed which was very frustrating because,” he pauses for comic effect at the thought of the supermodel and himself cramped up in a tiny bed, “… she snores!
“We later got a two-bedroom place together – me, Jessica and Agyness.
“There were two beds and we worked on a rotation system. They both had boyfriends so it was very frustrating as I was constantly on the couch!” The trio has temporarily broken up, however. Agyness has now moved to New York where her star has risen further.
“But she yearns for her down-to-earth mates from the small mill town to join her in the Big Apple.
“She’s not coming back,” Henry says wistfully.
source: mirror.co.uk

“She has definitely settled and found her home.
“I miss her loads now she is in New York. She is getting very, very frustrated with us now.
“She has had enough of it and says ‘This is it, I have been here two years, hurry up and move over.’ She keeps demanding that me and Jess come on over and work here. ‘I know it’s tricky but you have to,’ she says. I spend as much time as I can over there hanging out with her.
“I am so busy with my work and she is so busy with hers that it’s not that easy to get time together.”
But Holland believes his Northern roots, and a circle of close friends from Ramsbottom, have ensured his head hasn’t been turned by the bright lights of the big city.
“I have not run away from Ramsbottom five years ago and woken up like this,” he says, sipping a cup of tea in Debenhams HQ for our interview. “I have been working my arse off for five years. I have worked since I was 18 in some form. I have a very strong work ethic.
“It is amazing. I do pinch myself especially on days like today when you are stood in the window of Debenhams.
One of the things I think is special is there are ten of us from the same place who all work in London and we have all known each other since we were 11 or so.
“Jessica sits next to me every single day and if I even show a little bit of the diva… I don’t even get near because she would be all over me.
“The same with Agyness. I don’t think we are divaish. I think it is a northern thing, We aren’t built like that.”
Henry has a new muse for his Debenhams range, 19-year-old Pixie Geldof. The daughter of Sir Bob Geldof and the late Paula Yates might not be a Northern lass, but she helped inspire his new high-street collection.
“Pixie has been my muse actually,” says Henry. “I love working with my friends whenever possible. I first met Pixie five years ago.
“I was working at Smash Hits magazine as a fashion assistant and we were brought on to a Sky TV show, It’s a Girl Thing, the first eight-hour live TV show. It was also the last eighthour live TV show.
“I was there customising Ugg boots and Pixie was presenting.
“It was the first thing she had ever done and she was 14.
“Then over the years we bumped into each other at different things and we’ve the same group of friends.
“She’s slept on my sofa a few times. When all this has died down in a few weeks we’re off to LA to the Coachella music festival.”
But despite his burgeoning success, there is one job that beats all others – his weekend job working in Bailey’s teashop in Ramsbottom.
“Bailey’s teashop, it was my favourite job ever,” he says. “I used to work every weekend. Princess Diana’s funeral was my first day of work and I worked every weekend ever since.
“It was so much fun, Bailey’s. I go in there now when I go home and I know the menu and I know the table numbers and if I go in on a Saturday morning I can point at the regulars and say exactly what they are going to order and their names.” You can take the boy out of Ramsbottom…
Henry Holland’s range is on sale in Debenhams nationwide.

Kate Moss addicted to Chat Roulett

Kate Moss has a new addiction!
The 36-year-old British supermodel � who�s currently dating The Kills rocker Jamie Hince � is apparently hooked on Chat Roulette � a website that puts random people face to face via a webcam.
�It�s Kate�s new thing,� a source told Britain�s Daily Star newspaper. �She�ll invite her friends round and get pissed [drunk], while they get online.
�She likes the chatting part but hates being on camera in case she gets identified by other users. So her friends go on camera and she stays out of shot.
�She finds it hilarious that no-one will ever know they�re talking to a supermodel.
�Jamie loves it so much he wants to make a music video based on it. It�s a lot of fun, especially if everyone�s really drunk.�

Even thick make-up can’t hide Daisy Lowe’s skin as model suffers outbreak of spots

mija — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 12:39:40 +0000

Most young women have had to contend with an untimely outbreak of spots at some point.
But as a model looking good isn’t just good for Daisy Lowe’s ego – it’s her job.
So the severe outbreak of acne on her face must have caused some distress to the 21-year-old yesterday.
But while she might have been tempted to stay at home, Daisy braved the press to fulfil her obligations at a photocall for Harvey Nichols.
She and actress friend Jaime Winstone attended an event to promote the store’s new fourth floor via the Hub at London’s Hanover Square.

With her long willowy legs statuesque Daisy needed little more than a pair of scruffy work boots and a mini skirt to highlight her slender frame, teamed with a leather jacket and Louis Vuitton bag.
Jaime, 24, wore a red blouse and beret, with black skinny jeans and heels.
The pair looked like they enjoyed their catch-up, laughing and joking as they posed for photographers.
They had plenty to talk about.
Despite her bad skin Daisy’s career is going from strength to strength.
She recently landed a high profile campaign for Louis Vuitton’s swimwear collection, which was shot in Miami.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley in Racy Thomas Wylde Ad Campaign

mija — Thu, 18 Mar 2010 12:42:45 +0000

Talk about unleashing your Wylde side.
Model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley leaves little to the imagination in the latest ad campaign for Thomas Wylde, photographed by fashion-forward lensman Rankin.
In fact, she leaves so little to the imagination that it makes her Victoria’s Secret shots look like a Girl Scouts catalog.
Rocking statement eyebrows and a pompadour that would impress Elvis, the 22-year-old Brit stuns in a series of provocative poses while wearing everything from a leather one-shoulder dress to exaggerated cream harem pants paired with an oversized clutch (as a shirt) to a slouchy graphic tee… to nothing but black panties and a come-hither stare.
Vying her topless look for the title of “sexiest shot” is a snap of Huntington-Whiteley stretching seductively over an industrial gurney/table in an ultra-short black leather top, panties and some killer studded heels.
If the clothes and accessories give us half the sex appeal they give Rosie, we’ll consider it money well spent. Hey, a girl can dream, can’t she?

Supermodel mother-of-four Stephanie Seymour shows a flawless bikini body at 40

mija — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:13:51 +0000

As she suns herself on a beach in St Barts, it’s hard to believe it has been 20 years since Stephanie Seymour found fame as a Sports Illustrated pin-up.
But even after giving birth to four children the Eighties supermodel still has the perfect figure which charmed a generation.
Her holiday comes as the 40-year-old mother-of-four adjusts to single life after splitting from her husband of 16 years.
In March last year she filed for divorce from real estate developer Peter Brant, whom she married in 1995 in France.

Following the split Stephanie is said to have moved into the maid’s quarters of her Manhattan home.
But as she relaxed under the Caribbean sun yesterday in her black bikini, she seemed happy and relaxed.
Stephanie’s trim figure is all the more impressive considering that since her time in the spotlight she has given birth to Dylan, Peter, Harry, and Lilly.
And if her past form is anything to go by she won’t be holidaying alone for long.

At the age of just 16 she began dating John Casablancas, the head of Elite Model Management, who was, at the time, married to model Jeanette Christjansen.
The couple lived together before Seymour broke off the relationship.
A short-lived marriage to guitarist Tommy Andrews failed in 1990, but resulted in the birth of her first son, Dylan Thomas Andrews in 1991.
Before dating rocker Axl Rose, she was briefly involved with actor Warren Beatty.
During the relationship with the rock musician she appeared in two Guns N’ Roses videos.
Stephanie and Axl broke up in 1993 after a two-year relationship when Axl accused her of being unfaithful.
The break-up was acrimonious with the couple counter-suing one another and each alleging assault.
