Fashion Week says c'est Le Bon
BY CLAIRE LOW, IN SYDNEY
04 May, 2011 07:33 AM


Supermodel Yasmin Le Bon lent her star power to Australian Fashion Week in Sydney yesterday, striding down the runway for the label Little Joe Woman.
Le Bon, the wife of Simon Le Bon of Duran Duran fame, opened the show in a white floral frock plus wavy beach-babe hair and closed it arm-in-arm with designer and model Gail Elliott, her friend.

The collection - best suited to jet-setting girls on holiday - featured leopard print; jumpsuits; little shorts; flouncy blouses; strapless frocks and even a barely-there crochet dress atop a bikini.

Caftans, paisley and butterfly prints plus scallop-edged suede skirts continued the retro vibe at the first shows on Monday.

First up at the industry-only event in Sydney yesterday morning was Therese Rawsthorne's off-site runway parade.

Rawsthorne, who worked at Issey Miyake and Ozwald Boateng before starting her own label, presented at an industrial-looking setting in Eveleigh.

The collection included drop-waisted gowns; a spectacularly studded jacket; high-waisted pink trousers; an exposed-shoulder shirt, and some deeply cut fronts in one case, so low the model had to make an adjustment as she walked.

There were abstract prints; tailored yet loose shapes and acid yellow and black breaking up the palette of whisper-soft hues.

''For me, this season it's about modernity,'' Rawsthorne said.

''My prints and the colour palette were quite different for me, with a lot more intensity and boldness.''

She drew inspiration from David Lynch's television series Twin Peaks, which was ''a weird mix of melodrama and the avant garde,'' and came up with prints inspired by an orchid house and wood-grain.

Designer Sara Phillips flew the flag for Australiana with her take on floral print: bold depictions of native Australian flora teamed with snakeskin patterns. Her models paraded around an over-sized centrepiece of Australian native plants to the sound of Yothu Yindi singing Treaty.

Manning Cartell drew a capacity crowd with its showing of boldly-striped suiting; angelic, textured white gowns and jackets; earthy hues; abstract prints and ruffled details, with the occasional clingy metallic garment in the mix.

Miss Unkon presented flirty pastel frocks with little flashes of flesh and dangling details, plus more unconventional pieces such as a floor-length lace hoodie. To counteract all the girlishness, models wore big black stomping boots and had tribal art painted on their skin.

Fashion Week ends on Friday.

'I was addicted to exercise and lived on the odd bread roll if I was lucky': Yasmin Le Bon reveals her gruelling diet regime
By SADIE WHITELOCKS
Last updated at 7:46 AM on 11th May 2011

As one of the highest earning models of the Eighties Yasmin Le Bon's career continues to flourish 27 years later.
Already this year she has fronted Moschino's summer campaign and walked for London label Issa.
Now in a revealing interview the 46-year-old British Iranian beauty refreshingly describes how her line of work has caused her to adopt unhealthy habits, giving some weight to myths shrouding the fashion industry.
The wife of Duran Duran's lead singer Simon Le Bon admits that she has been addicted to exercise, even doing squats while cooking and some days survived on nothing more the 'odd bread roll'.

After three children Mrs Le Bon still has her youthful looks and could easily be mistaken for her 21-year-old daughter Amber who has followed in her mother's footsteps fronting a number of campaigns.

But it seems that the Oxford-born model has had to work had to keep her 5ft 9 frame in catwalk condition.
She told Harper's Bazaar: 'I've definitely had an issue with over-exercising at times, and I had to give it all up for a year or two to let my body mend.
'It sounds ridiculous, but exercise is addictive - it draws you in and you ignore the pain, so I'm careful now.

'I was doing Pilates three times a week, martial arts virtually every days, and hours of cardio in the gym, but I was doing too much.'
But old habits die hard as the mother of Tallulah, Saffron, and Amber says that she still follows an exercise regime, even toning up around the house.
'When I'm cooking I'm always doing squats and lunges while waiting for the pans to boil.'
She also describes that she likes to eat less during the day and then have larger but 'not huge' meals in the evening.
But this is a considerably healthier approach to when she was modelling full time: 'Back then, I lived off the odd bread roll if I was lucky.'
Mrs Le Bon was first spotted at the age of 17 when she was working as a part-time shop assistant in Oxfordshire.


Signed by a local agency most of her early work consisted of hand modelling and advertising for businesses.
But after being snapped up by Models 1 she became a firm favourite with an array of designers from Karl Lagerfeld to Versace and has appeared on over 400 magazine covers.
She adds: 'I know that now my body needs to be heavier - I'm over a stone more than I used to be.'

Ясмин Ле Бон

Ясмин ле Бон – удивительная для модельного бизнеса личность. Она стала знаменитой тогда, когда в моде был совершенно другой тип внешности, трижды оставляла карьеру ради рождения детей – и трижды успешно возвращалась в нее, считала работу главным делом жизни – и вот уже больше 20 лет живет в счастливом браке с музыкантом Duran Duran Саймоном Ле Боном, с которым воспитывает трех дочерей.

Ясмин родилась в 1964 году в Оксфорде у мамы-англичанки и отца-иранца. В 1981 году, когда она подрабатывала продавцом-консультантом в небольшом магазине, ее заметил скаут из местного модельного агентства. Ее первые заработки в качестве модели – это рекламы местных парикмахерских, пылесосов, машин. Ясмин не была очень востребованной – в то время в моде были светлокожие блондинки, а она, со своей восточной внешностью, явно выбивалась из их круга.

Успех пришел в 1985 году, когда Ясмин, тогда уже жена Саймона Ле Бона, переехала в Нью-Йорк и там подписала контракт с крупнейшим агентством Elite. Она начала работать с модными Домами Christian Dior, Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Calvin Klein и Ralph Lauren. Тогда же она стала появляться на обложках журналов – первыми были Vogue и Elle. В том же году она впервые решила оставить модельный бизнес – на самом пике популярности.

Но уже в следующем – 1986 – году она возвращается к работе и получает еще больше предложений. А в 1989 – рожает первую дочь, с которой они с мужем появляются на обложке журнала Hello. С тех пор Ясмин родила еще двоих дочерей, каждый раз возвращаясь к работе спустя совсем короткое время. Сейчас она уже не получает столько предложений, как раньше, но нельзя сказать, что ее забыли. В последние годы Ясмин представляла такие марки, как Avon и Marks&Spencer, а за поддержание семейного модного статуса теперь отвечает ее старшая дочь Амбер, уже получавшая предложения от таких брендов, как AllSaints.

"What I miss the most of the 80´s ? My waist!"

Have been married 26 years,The have two cats,three dogs and a mother-in-law (Simon´s mum) who lives in the next door house.He hums a song,She watered the Garden roses, They Do crossword puzzles together and their three teenage daughters oversleep...with a naked eye,This could be the picture of a typical sunday morning,at home with a typical family.But a small detail, that changes everything : the protagonists are the super model Yasmin Le Bon And the leader singer of Duran Duran,Simon.
Yasmin insists her routine is like normal people "Entertains me to read, walk with dogs, watch motorbike racing..." But,at least I am not agree with the elevator (I am not very sure what woman is saying here...) with many women, not only have a life with a Rock Star,share the title of Supermodel too,with Claudia Schiffer and Linda Evangelista,Inspire campaigns to Chanel,Versace and Dior and with her 46 years old,is still claimed for covers and fashion editorials.If in the 80´s She could with
"Beauty Canons" blonde-blue eyes with her Iranian tez (inherited from his father) today,She is determined to write her own present,with her own words "At my age you can´t wear miniskirts? Bah! I dont believe in that rubbish!

Page 36

With parents like Simon and I,who have tried everything,My daughters haven´t much to rebel against

-Fashion is a comfortable place to a forties woman?
-I am not very sure if you should be model if you have passed forties...I still work because is very fun to me and,because I've never acted according what others expect from me.I hate when people tell me"Do it or dont do that" rules are made to be broken.

-You've been 28 years in the skin of a model.is difficult to survive?
-It sounds like I has been in the army (Laughs) although ,its true not everyone is worth.You must be strong,have strong emotional too,and confidence in what you do.you are judged from the moment you enter by the door.Be model makes you stronger or destroy you.

-What do you miss the most from the golden age of Supermodels,those wonderful 80´s and 90´s?
-Oh,gosh, My waist! were amazing years,although my friends then,didn´t knew my great effort.I worked all the day,I was at party with my friends, and then took the first flight to back with my husband and my daughters (Amber,Saffron and Tallulah) while the rest of the team were chilling out.

-Model-mother worker...
-Well,yes.And you know what? I am a little tired.There are evenings,I only want sit and put your feet up (it means relax) and do nothing.I have won it

"I LAUGH A LOT WITH SIMON
HE IS LIKE A GOAT"

That day in 1983,when Yasmin knock at the door of Model agency Models1,in London.spin her wheel of fortune.Professional and personal.Only a year after,the leader singer from the one of the most cool british band at the moment,Simon Le Bon,saw her in a picture and moved his contacts to meet her"He was the last person I wanted Start going out.The musicians seemed to me nothing serious and
a snobs".
Simon nedeed some calls and bouquets to convince Yasmin,but then,with only one date,She knew,he was "Smart,funny and selfconfident".The qualities She most admire in a man.In 1985,while campaigns like Calvin Klein,Karl Lagerfeld or dior.raised her caché (She has been one of the highest paid models),She married with her only boyfriend.Today,more than 25 years later.

-A model and a Rockstar which have celebrated silver wedding.If I dont see it,I dont believe it.
I never thought consciously how make my marriage works,we are simply happy.Simon is like a goat and is very very funny.We laugh a lot,even in the darkest moments,especially in the darkest moments.Is necessary to offset the pressurizeda and stress work give to him.While, we are together,we will be fine.

-You insist that your life is "normal".But for sure, you lived some glamorous moment.
-See to my husband at concert for 150.000 people,was a big moment.And I,there,alone,singing his songs.Amazing.And you know the best? He is impressed living it,He isn´t self indulgent.

-So many tours,so many fans...Jealousy is a chronic disease?
-I have never been jealousy.We were competitive in terms of our independence.I married with Simon,and I knew who he was.His job wasn´t since 9 to 5 ,is his life.And that is a reason why I love him.

-How Do you explain to your daughters,21, 19 and 16 life isn't a fairytale?
The truth is,its hard give them lessons about life, because my journey has been extraordinary and not always is like that.Mine,was a passionate love story.I married with 21.Maybe, if I had been more experience,I couldnt have done that,But I was very young and I was very very very in love.

Page 38

"Models are judged the 24 hours.You become strong or destroy you"

Do you are the protective mother of friend mother?
Do you should choose? Motherhood evolves over time and It must be accepted.The girls are growing .I did a mother tigress,and, although I will always protect my family,I need another relationship with them.I dont expect they live with us the rest of their lifes,make them food and wash their clothes.Come on girls! His father and I have plans...For us!.

"I dont want crushed myself at GYM anymore"

See to Yasmin posing in front of the cameras, helps you to understand immediately why there is models and then supermodels.She knows each millimeter about her (super)body,And doesnt take away her selfesteem, that size 36's is use now by her daughters. "I was very hard with myself-She says-But recently I learned how take things with calm.You become elder,things change and you must learn to aceppt it.If you dont,you never will be happy"

You can find her in London...

Dinner time :
Riva (169 Church Road.Barnes).
"Is my favorite restaurant,is Italian, authentic and tiny".

Taking a drink
Caridges (www.claridges.co.uk)
Is fantastic if you want a cocktail.Ritz Bar,but the atmosphere a little posh.

Buying Vintage
"I go to markets,like "Hammersmith Town Hall" (King Street).

Burning credit card

Page 40

I water the roses in the garden, do crossword puzzles with my husband and my mother-in-law is in our the next door ...I am very normal.

-GYM is a frequent event in your agenda?
I training very hard before and suffered two serious injuries.nothing is free in this life.I have more care about myself, because I dont want live in pain.normal people,cant imagine at what point we put our body to the limit : jump a hundred times on a cement floor with stilettos ,isnt healthy...dancers dont do it either.

-So...Will you feel worry about your eldest daughter ,Amber,If She wants follow your footsteps?
-No,Because She isnt impressed about the fashion world,and it isnt the dream of her life.She likes the creative aspect,and for now,She has a good time.We will see it.one doesnt choose be a model, this choose you.

Between picture and picture,Marcin, the photographer told,he made a shooting with Amber,and when She finished it.She went on tube."So is she"-Yasmin explains,with a proud smile in her mouth-Very normal,with the feet on the ground"-

what do you notice about you ,with an Iranian father and British mother?
My english vein is very RockAndRoll and Antiestablishment.I am nonconformist.Is in constant contradiction with my Persian side,makes myself give many importance to family,education...Is a bit complicated,I am discuss between two opposite poles.

And which of your two examples do you show to your daughters?
They know what choose in every moment.anyway,there isnt much against rebel,with parents who have basically seen all.

[DurAnna]

Мне Яся больше всего понравилась на обложке и в полосатой тунике. А на остальных фото она выглядит как-то сурово даже легких в платьях.

[Юльчик]

Вот сколько смотрю на Ясю,все ей восхищаюсь)

[Lily]

Какая же она красавица! Легко верю в то, что Саймон с первого взгляда влюбился в ее фотографии.

[CrazyFan]

Причём, лично мне кажется, что с возрастом она стала даже ещё красивее.

[Mezmerized]

Это уж верно. От неё какая-то теплота идёт. А все остальные - холодные

просто у того же Ника все дамы миллионерши)) а Ясмин насколько мне известно из простой семьи..

Ясмин Ле Бон. Красавица, родом из Англии


Яркая и экзотичная Ясмин- одна из самых знаменитых моделей 80-х. Ясмин Ле Бон (Парване) родилась 29 октября 1964 года в Оксфорде (Англия) в семье Модельная карьера Ясмин началась в 17 лет, когда она параллельно с учебой продавала одежду в одном из магазинов Оксфорда.
Ее заметили агенты одного из модельных агентств тех мест, и вскоре она подписала с ним контракт.
Начинала она с реклам машин, пылесосов и парикмахерских, она несколько раз принимала участие в показах мод и конкурсах красоты (высший результат – второе место).
У Ясмин не было определенных планов на будущее (кроме как 'попутешествовать' и 'посмотреть мир'), и родные, обеспокоенные такой неопределенностью, посоветовали ей серьезнее заняться карьерой в модельном бизнесе.
В 1983 году Парване стала финалисткой конкурса 'Мисс Оксфорд' и отправилась в Лондон. В агентстве 'Models 1' разглядели потенциал провинциалки и пригласили ее на испытательный срок. Она не блистала, но всегда качественно делала работу; она, темноволосая смуглянка, не подходила под принятые тогда стандарты красоты и не попадала на обложки, но все клиенты ее обожали.
Однажды
Он всеми возможными способами добился от нее согласия прийти на первое свидание: искал номер телефона через общих знакомых, заказывал розы домой, звонил. На этом свидании, которого он так долго добивался, Саймон и Ясмин поняли, что были созданы друг для друга.
В то время Ясмин была лицом таких брендов, как 'Calvin Klein', 'Christian Dior' и 'Karl Lagerfeld'.
Саймон и Ясмин тихо сыграли свадьбу, вскоре у Ле Бонов родилась дочь – Эмбер Роуз Тамара Ле Бон. После рождения дочери Ясмин вернулась к работе, мотивируя это необходимостью зарабатывать.
В 2001 году Ясмин заявила, что и в возрасте за 30 женщина прекрасна и подтвердила слова делом, с
Ле Бон могла себе позволить выбирать, и участвовала в отдельных показах тех модных домов, с которыми ей нравилось работать — 'Bella Freud', 'Chanel', 'Karl Lagerfeld', 'Stella McCartney' и др., а также снималась в рекламных компаниях крупнейших брендов — 'Chanel', 'Dibari', 'Escada', 'Gianni Versace', 'Next', 'Pantene', 'Spiegel' и многих других. И это – в возрасте за 30 и даже за 40 лет:

В 2009 году, по приглашению владельца 'Arcadia Group', сэра Филипа Грина, Ясмин Ле Бон работала над созданием коллекции одежды для бренда 'YLB for Wallis', появилась на нескольких обложках и стала лицом рекламной кампании продукта 'Avon Anew Reversalist'.
