She's on the cover of the March 2011 issue of Red magazine, there are three separate covers this month - Kirsty, Tatjana Patitz and Maggie Rizer - plus another image from her shoot and her interview (facebook/redmagazine, redonline.co.uk

Sali Hughes meets three of the original supermodels - and learns the secret to their enduring success.

Kirsty Hume
Scottish-born Kirsty, 34, has starred in campaigns for Chanel, Ralph Lauren, Agent Provocateur and, recently, M&S. She lives in LA with her musician and actor husband, Donovan Leitch, and their seven year-old daughter, Violet.

Did you always want to be a model?
Not at all. I’ve always painted and was planning to go to art college when I was approached by a local Glasgow model agency at 17. Before long, I signed with a Paris agency, quickly got booked for the big shows and was shot by Patrick Demarchelier for a US Bazaar cover. That remains a real career high for me. Things went so well right away, I just went with it.

Do you remain friends with your supermodel colleagues? Is there a sense that you all lived through a special time?
I think we knew something big was happening, and we’ll always have that bond. I don’t get to see all the girls very often, but I remain great friends with Shalom Harlow and Amber Valletta. Shalom is in New York, so if I’m there working, we’ll have a girls’ lunch. Amber is here in California so we hang out a lot.

The supermodels of the 1980s and 1990s are making a comeback. Why do you think this is?
People tell me they like the familiarity of those models. We all had very different looks, whereas now, lots of models look similar. I also think modern women in their thirties and forties demand to be represented these days – they are vibrant, fashionable and glamorous and want to see women in magazines who represent them, not 15-year-olds.

How do you retain your sense of self if you’re playing a different part every day?
It’s really important to have boundaries that draw a line between work and real life. As a model, you are taking on a different persona for work, but I think that’s true of many professions. Doctors, lawyers, businesswomen – most would say they have to be someone that isn’t entirely them in a professional situation. As you get older and get to know yourself better, it becomes easier to know the difference.

You’re known for having one of the most successful marriages in the fashion world. What’s the secret?
It works because we’re both committed to making it work. Donovan and I have been together for 15 years, married for 13. We got together when I was so young, it’s all I’ve ever really known. And with his work being based in LA, we’re together a lot. We both like to cook and so we’ll often do that together and hang out with Violet. I’ve just always felt really comfortable with him.

What does a regular day look like now you’re a mum?
I spend lots of time at home. After Violet’s gone to school, I love to cook or garden, and my art is very important to me. I’m also a passionate knitter – I knit most days.

What has being such a successful model taught you about life?
It’s taught me to be flexible. I’m never set in my ways or resistant to change, because I’ve lived for so long knowing that I could be on a plane at any moment.

How did it feel to be asked to join the Marks & Spencer team?
As a British girl abroad, it had extra meaning for me, because it’s a sentimental link with home. I don’t get to come back to the UK more than once or twice a year, so knowing I’m associated with a British institution is comforting.

How do you make peace with the ageing process when you’re surrounded by people scrutinising your looks?
I’m pretty comfortable about it. I recently found my first grey hair and, honestly, I was excited about it. But, so far, I don’t see any huge changes in my appearance, and I’m not scared of any in the future. I can’t imagine having Botox, and I would never choose to go into an operating theatre for non-medical reasons. It just seems crazy.

Where do you see yourself in five years?
I’d like to be living in the country, growing my own food and living as self-sufficiently as possible. We’ve often talked about having another child but have always been too busy, so maybe that, too.

[Natazz]

Did she cut her hair again?

 

[Gábor]

^no (hopefully, i think it's just a bun or something

 

[hfgl]

Although i missed her hair when she famously cut it, i had to admit it was a really good cut.
