For the December issue of Harper's Bazaar, supermodel and fashion personality—and host of the premiering-tonight The Fashion Show: Ultimate Collection Bravo-show—Iman gave an interview to an ostrich, above. Okay, we're just kidding about the ostrich part. Here's what she said:
On glamour: “I believe in glamour. I am in favor of a little vanity. I don't rely on just my genes. Looking good is a commitment to yourself and to others. Wigs, killer heels, Pilates, even fillers—whatever works for you, honey.”· Iman [Harper's Bazaar]On her marriage with David Bowie: “David doesn't fight. He is English, so he just stays quiet. I'm the screamer. Then he always makes me laugh. It's like cabaret. I keep him entertained too. I still fancy him—totally!—after all these years.” “I vowed to myself when I got married that I would cook every night. I find it very therapeutic.”
On her favorite young designer: “Alexander Wang is one of my favorites. But he is like my daughter. He is like 12.”
