She LOOKS like what I imagined rich socialites should look like. There's something about her that screams $$$.

Agreed!

She is beautiful and likes A Tribe Called Quest- I like her!

Anyway, she was featured on Vh1's Fabulous Life. For her birthday, she had an Egyptian pyramid cake that was a few feet tall. Harrod's perfume people developed a perfume just for her named 'The One'. She will have it to herself for a whole year then it will be sold in stores. She also so a lifetime supply of other perfumes from Harrods which cost about $90,000.

^ Yes it is.


Here's an article about Camilla from timesonline.co.uk. Who knew that she was once overweight...

A cut above

Watch out, Nicky Clarke. There’s a new pretender to the society hairdressing throne. Camilla Fayed introduces Jessica Brinton to the man with the magic scissors

Camilla Fayed, 21-year-old daughter of you know who, is settling into her customary chair at the Richard Ward salon on the King’s Road in Chelsea. And, oh, isn’t she a vision? Doll face. Slinky body tipped into little pink top and skintight Seven jeans. Sparkly pink Christian Louboutin heels. Black-and-white Cartier diamond ring. Such charming manners. And what hair.

Piled high on the dainty head of Mohamed’s lass is a tangled but rather glorious bird’s nest. If it were mine, I would keep it like that, but Fayed is here to have it seen to. It’s a thrice-weekly occurrence, usually accompanied by a manicure.

Some people are calling Ward the new Nicky Clarke on account of the six-week waiting list you’d need to negotiate, and £175 you’d pay, to get a cut and blow-dry off him. He isn’t really one for leather trousers, but now he’s got a new salon in the Duke of York retail development — just a hop, skip and a jump from Knightsbridge — it’s easy to see why ladies who might once have beaten a path to Clarke’s door, are arriving at his. Grown-up celebrity sloanes such as Ivana Trump, Normandie Keith, Trinny and Susannah, Kate Middleton and new Newsnight girl, Emily Maitlis, as well as a sizeable chunk of Chelski’s Russian socialite population, are his adoring fans. They love his cuts, naturellement, but like all the best crimpers, he’s charismatic and an impossible flirt, too. He makes the girls feel beautiful, and that’s worth all the money in the world.

Fayed has been coming to him since she was 13, but, says Ward, as he runs a comb through her luscious locks at the basin, “When you were 13, you didn’t look the way you look now.”

Well, how did she look when she was only a tiddler, closeted away in the home counties with her sister and mother? Or at 14, doing stints on the tills at Harrods, like the rest of her siblings and half-siblings (something Daddy has always insisted on)?

Hard to believe, but this Roedean-educated vision of international glamour was quite the self-conscious teen. Very overweight, she was also cursed with an untamable frizz-head.

“It was a terrible bouffant. I hated it,” says Fayed.

“Yeah,” says Ward. “But you always knew a great blow-dry when you saw one.”

She was 18 when it all changed: she lost 3st, bought a new wardrobe, moved to London and emerged a butterfly. “You knew me when I was fat and blonde!” she shrieks to Ward.

“You’ve become a lady. I didn’t fancy you then — but I do now.”

So. Now we have Camilla Fayed, jet-set princess and darling of the gossip columns, whose 21st-birthday party was held near a helipad in Battersea so that dukes and moguls could arrive and leave in the manner to which they were accustomed. Paris Hilton was there, as were the designer Matthew Williamson, the actor Brandon Davis, the birthday girl’s latest squeeze, and the pop star Craig David. Fayed wore a cobalt-blue, floor-length Julien Macdonald gown, but her mane — cascading glossily down her back — was a star in its own right.

Such stylistic perfection takes time, of course. Either Ward or Fayed’s usual stylist, Nando, put an hour aside (three times a week — how does she find the time?).

But for her party, neither of them had done her hair, since she had flown in at the last minute and had, I fancy, got it done on the private jet. Four of the team were invited along, nonetheless.

First, they wash her hair. Then, they iron it flat and smooth, using serum and setting lotion. Then, it is curled at the ends, with heated irons or Velcro rollers. There are subtle slices of colour through it — none of that bright blonde favoured by brassier members of her set, thank you — so the final result is a natural-ish brown, but full of light.

“I know my own hair. I know about using a brush. I’ve learnt from many years of coming here that metal brushes frizz the hair. I like it smooth from the roots, with just the right amount of curl at the end,” she says.

“Glamorous definitely suits who she is,” Ward says. “She’d die if we cut it off.”

At the party, her father unveiled her birthday present, a perfume called The One, created especially for her (and to be sold exclusively at Harrods). Does he have opinions on the way she presents herself? “He likes my mother and us to dress properly.” Does she give him any advice? “Never. He knows what he likes. And he has his own barber who sees to his hair.”

Ward is halfway through the blow-dry when Fayed turns puce and starts stabbing at her phone. “Conquer the front urgently, please,” she says under her breath. What’s the fuss? Just some boy. A 6ft youth in trainers — an ex — sitting on the other side of the room, studiously ignoring her. Ouch.

And then, 20 minutes later, Ward is done. The final creation floats around Fayed’s head and shoulders like a cloud, the sort of hair that you would reach out and run your fingers through — if that, quite clearly, weren’t completely out of the question.
