The ed in #3206 had also a nice and interesting article about our Lily 
- here's my translation:
I see Lily Cole approaching from far, tall, long red hair, amidst Paris crowd. It's Fashion Week time, and the town is in tension, full of traffic. She's still made-up, a few minutes ago she was still catwalking for Christian Lacroix and had the Ville Lumière at her feet, now she's a girl on boulevard Saint Martin. Perhaps it was a day like this when a talent scout from Storm Agency saw her in Soho, London, with her friends, and asked her if she wanted to be a model. Like many other top models, also Lily, 18 y.o., aesthetical image of the english rose, started like that. We sit down in a café, the waiters stare at her, charmed. "Wake up, guys, two teas with milk...". She seems not to notice the reaction she causes, perhaps 'cause the coffee-machine is close and we almost need to shout to understand what we're saying, or perhaps she's so tired 'cause she's done so many shows. "After that day, I found myself on a plane, headed for a shoot for Vogue Brazil. It was one of those days when you go out in the morning, come back in the evening, and everything's changed, as if somebody'd drawn an invisible line on your door". Fate, perhaps. And her life changed. "I lived in Notting Hill, though it wasn't still posh as it is now. During days I studied, met friends, always the same. Then I had to miss half of my lessons, studying on planes to catch back. I remember the first 4-stars hotel in Portugal, which looked like a castle to me, the room was amazing. I called my mother to tell her about it; and I perfectly remember my first show, Anna Sui. I was terrified! I watched Fashion Tv with my sister Emily, I was sure I wasn't going to make it". And instead she really made it big, and in school she kept getting A's all the same. "It mustn't go to your head, this is a job that comes out of luck, not from hard work, so I keep my feet on the ground, struggling with the vulnerability feeling and the ego manias around me. When I see somebody who's kind with the famous make-up artists and then unkind with the unknown assistants, I tell myself: 'you won't do like that, Lily...'. I believe that compassion and a kind approach to others are the keys to well being. And then again, tomorrow it could all be over..." - she waves her hair and the waiters stare at her, charmed. "When your'e a model, it's fundamental that you mantain other interests. I like the idea of caring about others, like my sister does - she's in Nepal with a charity organisation - and I'd also like to study acting. I'll move to NYC in a while and I'll follow a course, I'd also like to try directing...though I know, it's a bit assuming to say something like that at my age". She becomes more serious, her fair eyes focus on the smoking tea cup, while she slowly sip and the parisian confusion reigns around us. "It's my mother who always encouraged me to believe in myself, she taught me the love for reading, writing, expressing; she helped me building a personality that goes beyond the aesthetics. I've never been surrounded by consume 'cause we've been brought up with few money, My father left us early and my mother was ill, we've had to get by with the public welfare since I was a child, taking care of the house all alone. I remember the fights with my sister to try not washing the dishes, and I remember cheese-maccheroni and my culinary experiments. I've always loved desserts, but I've never read the recipes, I used to mix whatever I could find, even flowers. Fashion had no part in that, and still today I feel I have an hippie soul. Shopping annoys me, I like better to read, walk, have a drink with frriends, spend time in Notting Hill, saying hello to the guys at the post office - they put away all the mags with my pics for my mother". She gives a look at her watch, she has to go now. She vanishes in the crowd, little by little, as in a cinema effect. Perhaps one day she'll direct a great movie.
Lily's beauty quotes
Make-up: few, very few, 'cause with shootings and shows I'm already often made-up. When going out, I keep the make-up I have then, or else, even though I've learnt how to make-up properly, I limit myself to a bit of mascara.
Food: I eat correctly, not stressing myself with diets, they'd just make me nervous. I avoid junk food and I try to properly feed me with fruits and vegetables. It's important for the mood as well, I noticed I'm happier when I eat correctly.
Fitness: I'm not particularly sporty, I do Pilates when I can, around 3 times a week. Except during fashion months, 'cause there's no time for it. Whenever I'm London, I go to a fitness club in my beloved Notting Hill.
Hair: I take care of them with nutritive masks, ad I try to dry them with the hairdryer the least that I can.
Fashion: I never wear high heels 'cause I'd be too tall, I adore jeans and romantic clothes.
Yay Lily!

I wanted this supplement but it was not imported here. 
Anyway, thanks for the scans! 
That would be funny when the waiters stared at her, and she hadn't even realised it. Lovely
