Naomi Campbell, Couture, V Magazine, spring/summer 2007

You may book Naomi - or indeed Kate Moss - for a certain reason but you cannot ignore what has happened in her private life. In an objective way, these people are very good at their job. It takes an awful lot of physical and mental stamina to get to where they are and that's why, 20 years after Naomi first came onto the scene, she's still at the top of her career. If you work with Naomi now, though, you are getting more than that, more than the fact that she is a superb model ? you are also getting a reflection of everything that is and has been written about her; you're getting an awful lot of life. Models like Kate and Naomi bring who they are to the clothes.
