ALICE DELLAL'S famous, punk undercut hairstyle was inspired by her sister, footwear designer and VOGUE.COM contributor Charlotte.

SEE CHARLOTTE'S STYLE IN PICTURES

"Charlotte actually suggested I have it done," she tells us. "My brother and my Dad always used to shave their hair and I remember thinking 'Why can't I do the same?' It's kind of ironic that it was my sister's idea, but I would give her total credit for it. The style's becoming more normal though - I see quite a few girls with similar hair now."

Alice - who is known for her punk-grunge look and for fronting her all-girl rock band, Thrush Metal - says that as a child she looked more to her father for fashion inspiration - rather than to the more glamorous style of her older sister and mother, Andrea.

"When I was little I was such a tomboy - I loved a baggy T-shirt and leggings," she says. "Charlotte's always been very stylish - she used to dress me when I was really young. We'd look identical, but we're so different. She'd be reading Agatha Christie and I, well I, wasn't. I was always more attracted to what my Dad was wearing. Charlotte and Mum are much more similar. Charlotte would get Mum's hand-me-downs, then I'd get them after she was done with them. If I'm feeling a bit glamorous though, I love wearing a pair of her shoes."

Talking at a ck one music event last night, held in conjunction with MTV and hosted by Lara Stone, the singer and model says her style influences are more varied than you might think.

"I was always into punk, ever since I was 13, but I was into other stuff too - like, well, the Spice Girls," reveals Dellal. "I really liked Scary Spice."

Dellal currently features in ck one's debut lifestyle collection, which shows a group of models, musicians, actors and sports stars known for their individuality dancing inside a mirrored box (read more about it here).

"It was really fun," she says of the photoshoot. "I knew Pixie [Geldof, who also features in the campaign], from before. Lara's really good too - sickeningly beautiful. Modelling's not something I want to do just on its own, but I always want it to be a part of my life."

Alice Dellal My London

Home is…
West London. It's where I grew up.

What was the last play you saw?
War Horse at the New London Theatre. The life-size puppets were beautifully made.

What advice would you give a tourist?
Buy an Oyster card and do the Monopoly Pub Crawl, which is 26 pubs, then try to catch a football match, preferably Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. If you're hungry at the end of the night, get a kebab from the Marathon Bar in Chalk Farm.

What's the first thing you do when you arrive back home?
I pick up Ribena, Jaffa Cakes and Hula Hoops at the airport.

What's the best meal you've had in London?
Steak and chips from the Passage Café, a small bistro in Clerkenwell.

Which shops do you rely on?
I buy my boots at the British Boot Company on Kentish Town Road. For all my jumpers and tracksuit bottoms I go to Sports Direct. I spend hours rummaging through homeware and books in Retro Music & Goods Exchange in Notting Hill where you can swap your old stuff for vouchers. I also spend a lot of money buying film and having it developed at Snappy Snaps in Kentish Town.

What animal would you like to be?
A lion because I'm a Leo.

How would you like the opening line of your obituary to read?
'Thrush Metal drummer dies crowd-surfing at a Slayer gig at Shepherd's Bush Empire.'

What's your biggest extravagance?
Dominic Jones jewellery. I always wear my knuckle-duster from his first collection. His most dangerous-looking pieces are the best.

What's the most romantic thing someone has done for you?
My ex-boyfriend organised a picnic for me on top of a gallery on the South Bank one summer. We broke our way on to the roof - it was pretty sweet.

What do you most like wearing?
The highest shoes from Charlotte Olympia to feel good.

Which is your favourite London pub?
The Intrepid Fox, a metal pub near Tottenham Court Road, for a whisky and ice.

What was the last album you bought?
Run-DMC Raising Hell on tape. It's wicked. I listen to it on the No 31 bus.

If you could live in any building in London which would it be?
No 1 Hawley Road in Camden. It's a detached peach-coloured house with black pillars. Every time I walk past I have to stop, it's so eerie and beautiful.

What would you do as Mayor for a day?
Make the Tube 24-hour and hold a carnival with massive sound systems on every street corner and free jerk chicken, rice and beans.

What are you up to at the moment?
I've just finished touring the UK with my band and now I'm hanging out in London before I go to Russia to DJ.

Tell me something I don't know about London...
The first vermilion phone box is in Piccadilly, opposite the Royal Academy. I found that out the other day when I was using it.

What's your earliest London memory?
Going to the Natural History Museum with my grandad when I was about three. The dinosaurs were so big and scary.

Have you ever had a run-in with the London police?
I've been asked out on a date by one. He was looking for a girl who had written on her Facebook page that she'd been to one of my gigs and they thought she'd be at my house, which she wasn't.

Where did you last go on holiday?
I went to New York for a week and stayed at the Gershwin Hotel, on 27th Street. It's an arty hotel with an Andy Warhol theme. Over Christmas I went to Ipanema with my family and stayed at my mum's apartment there. Before that, I sailed around the Aeolian Islands for a week on Johnny Depp's yacht Vajoliroja.

How many piercings do you have?
Four: in my nose, my ear lobes and another one at the top of my left ear.

Is there a piece of jewellery you feel naked without?
My nose ring. I've had my nose pierced for seven years and if I take the ring off it feels like I've just taken my mouth off.

What's your most precious piece?
A necklace that was given to my mum by my dad and then passed on to me. It's a solid gold dog tag and it has his name, Guy, engraved on the back. Apparently he used to give it to all his girlfriends.
