Elle Macpherson looks good with Intimates

April 17th, 2008 admin

SHE’s late, but she could have been a lot later. “Christ, I’m sorry,” said Elle Macpherson. “I had it down for next week. I just had to throw something on and rush out.”

I am 6ft 2in and she towers above me, all in black, three-inch heels, long-armed, long-legged, like a glamorous tarantula.

“Sorry,” she continued, taking in the room where I was waiting - a camp concoction of zebra-skin pouffes and glitzy clothes, from the latest collection by Roberto Cavalli. She and Cavalli share the same PR firm, where we met. “Wow,” she said. I asked her if she liked Cavalli. “Yeah, mate,” switching to broad Australian, “but I’m only interested if it’s comfy and looks nice.”

Macpherson, supermodel-turned-lingerie queen, has made that her leitmotif. Her Elle Macpherson Intimates range is now the biggest-selling brand of fashion lingerie in Britain, and it’s heading that way in America too.

Kate Moss flies in comfort *and* style

April 12th, 2008 admin

Kate Moss returned to Los Angeles from Miami yesterday - and as you can see, her ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ school of style was the order of the day. Again.

Wearing her favourite flared jeans, black jacket, white T-shirt and Wayfarer sunglasses, she was dressed for comfort as well as style - as you can tell by what look suspiciously like her favourite Mukluks under those favourite flared jeans.
