Memoirs of a Geisha

Summer Sale 05_animated
Sitting down quietly at a make-up station, there is a familiar face and a shock of short red hair, it's Brit Model Karen Elson, with her head stuck surreptitiously in a book, Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden. When she spots me recognise her, she pretends to hide behind it.

Q.  . Karen, you must be so busy this week, are you having fun?

A.  "Oh yes, all my mates are here including my best friend and flat mate Erin O'Connor so we're all together."

Q.  You are booked for so many shows, what's is like being attacked by hair and make up people 4 or 5 shows a day?

A.  "You become a zombie!" she laughs, "no seriously, I would become a zombie if I didn't read a book or do something while I'm being fussed over. I'm going to finish reading this book by the end of the week, even if it kills me" she growls jokingly at me.

Q.  "You just turned 20, how's the rest of your life going, erm, you know, love life!?"

A.  "I'm madly in love, have been for 8 months, but I'm not saying his name!" she grins coyly.

Q . What's your favourite show?

A.  "Oh there's too many to mention, they're all different. I love wearing Marc Jacobs and Anna Sui."
