Daisy Lowe claims she looks like “an elephant” compared to other models.
The 22-year-old British model gets a hard time at fashion shows because of her curvy figure, but is proud she has the body of a real woman.
She said: “Being compared to all these tiny 15-year-old Russians, I look like an elephant. At shows they’re like ‘ugh’. But now I think, ‘Do you know what? I look after myself. I have boobs and I have hips and I have an arse and I have thighs. Sorry.”
Daisy also admits her boobs are so big she feels more comfortable in a sports bra than with normal chest support.
She added: “I love sports bras. They usually make my nipples very erect for some reason. My boobs are on the bigger side, so with normal bras all I want to do is take them off, but sports bras are comfy.”

Daisy Lowe believes you have to be fearless to be a model.
The 22-year-old daughter of Pearl Lowe and Gavin Rossdale loves her job but says a sense of adventure is a definite plus when trying to get ahead in the fashion industry.
She explained to Live magazine: “I’m fearless when I need to be. In my work I’ve not been known turn down a challenge.
“I’ve posed naked a few times now, and that doesn’t bother me. I’ve done some mad shoots with the US photographer Steven Klein where I’ve hung off a giant crane ad jumped naked into a tub of slime.
“I recently did a shoot that involved four huge snakes crawling all over my body. I spent the whole day fretting about it. On the day itself I didn’t want them to smell my fear in case they decided to bite me.”
Despite her hugely successful career which has involved walking the catwalk for Chanel, Daisy admitted she actually “always wanted to become a “forensic scientist”.
She added: “I’ve always had a very analytical mind and science was my best subject at school. I haven’t completely ruled out the idea of doing something like that when I’m older.”

Emma Watson went for a tough/girlie look in a patent biker jacket with a cute full-skirted tartan dress. Such an adorable look
As well as the Mercury Music Awards, last night every smooth tuxedo’d hair gelled male celebrity in the world was present for the GQ Men of the Year Awards in London. GQ may be a magazine for men written by men, but last night at the awards it was all about the girls in attendance, who outshone the boys by miles.
The very adorable Emma Watson made an appearance to remind us exactly why she’s one of our favourite fashion icons in a full-skirted tartan dress (yes, I know it sounds disgusting but in reality it wasn’t) and a patent biker jacket and it worked so, so well. Meanwhile, the beautiful Miss Lara Stone looked leggy and bronzed in a bright tangerine mini to show off her post-summer golden glow.
The Agent Provocateur model Daisy Lowe showed up with boyfriend Matt Smith on her arm looking incredibly dramatic and gothic in a floor-length lace fishtail gown with chocolately dark hair and red lipstick. Also favouring black dresses were Pixie Lott in a one-shouldered silk cocktail dress, Jameela Jamil wore a black gown with a long chiffon train and Kylie Minogue went for an uber-sexy look in a fitted corset dress.
We’re glad to say that Leona Lewis has FINALLY stopped trying to reinvent herself as the Lady Gaga of R&B in ridiculous outfits, and yesterday looked really pretty and girl-next-door-ish in a white fringed maxi dress with scarlet lips and a red clutch purse.
Check out who wore what to the GQ Men of the Year Awards in the gallery above.

Daisy Lowe has revealed that her parents were a little less than thrilled when she modelled nude for Playboy magazine.
We’re quite surprised at Daisy’s ‘rents reaction, as we thought Pearl Lowe and Gavin Rossdale would be pretty liberal when it came to letting it all hang out. But Daisy said: “My gran was cool and said, ‘If you’ve got it, flaunt it’. But mum and dad weren’t so impressed.”
Daisy herself was also a little daunted when the raunchy photoshoot hit the shelves, as it hadn’t really yet occurred to her that the whole world would be able to see the photos. She said: “When I did the shoot it was just me and the photographer. I didn’t think about the whole world seeing me naked. Everyone can see me.” But that’s how it works, Daisy!
However, Daisy’s had some support about her modelling for Playboy, as her boyfriend and Doctor Who star Matt Smith has been all for it. Matt told the Daily Star: “I was really proud of her. She looked amazing.”
All together now- aaaaawwww.

Daisy Lowe has said that she loves her mum Pearl’s designs for Peacocks as they flatter the female form.
Daisy, who has modelled for Agent Provocateur in the past, is thrilled to model for Pearl Lowe’s collections because they flatter her curvy, feminine figure. She told Vogue: “I love the spotted dress because it’s easy to throw on every day for any occasion. Mum makes dresses that flatter the female form.”
The latest collection designed by Pearl Lowe, of which there have now been seven, consists of six vintage-inspired dresses. Pearl has listed her inspirations behind the new designs as Joni Mitchell, Janis Joplin and Stevie Nicks.
Pearl said on the new designs: “In the 40s, people had to make their own dresses, so everything was so original and beautifully made. The prints, however, were inspired by my favourite singer Stevie Nicks. I predict the black dress with the white lace trim to be another sell out, as it’s a follow on from last year’s black dress with the lace collar that sold out in a week.”

Daisy Lowe has revealed that she feels the most comfortable just in her lingerie.
The model, who has worked with the likes of Pam Hogg and Agent Provocateur in the past, and is set to appear in the iconic men’s magazine Playboy in September, says sexy undies are what she feels the most comfortable in.
Daisy told Playboy magazine: “It’s flattering that men think I could be sexy. I would like it if taking my clothes off made other women feel they can do the same. I’m more comfortable in my underwear than anywhere else. You don’t have to worry about how to dress your shape. It’s just there.”
It’s a proud thing to have a normal sized woman with womanly curves like Daisy be so proud of her shape. More power to her.

Daisy Lowe is set to appear naked in Playboy.
The 22-year-old model – who has previously posed for fashion publications Vogue and W – will strip off in an eight-page spread in the September edition of the iconic men’s magazine, which is set to be released on August 12.
Daisy – who is currently dating ‘Doctor Who’ actor Matt Smith – will travel to editor Hugh Hefner’s famous Playboy Mansion for the photo shoot.
The beautiful brunette – who is the daughter of musician-turned-designer Pearl Lowe and Bush rocker Gavin Rossdale – previously posed topless for the 2010 Pirelli Calendar and admitted she found the sexy shoot liberating.
She said: “It was quite freeing, being able to be naked for a week.”
Daisy has previously explained being “sexy” is a “big part” of her identity, and she believes it is empowering for women to be in control of their sexuality.
She said: “I suppose I’ve been very in touch with the ‘sexy’ thing since I was 15.
“I guess it’s a big part of my identity, something that I have learnt to switch into. It’s because I’m a girl’s girl. I’m not the bitchy girl who’s trying to make your boyfriend fancy me. The only reason I ever ‘do’ sexy is because I like to encourage women to feel sexy about themselves.”

Daisy Lowe had “meltdowns” about feeling like a “massive tree trunk”.
The 22-year-old beauty says it has taken her several years to be comfortable with her curvaceous figure and though she knows she isn’t fat, Daisy admits she can’t help but feel big next to slimmer models.
She said: “It has taken me seven years to get to the point where I can be comfortable with not being as thin as the rest of them.
“The public can say, ‘It’s really cool that you’re not conforming to this anorexic ideal’, but then I still have to go and stand next to all of the other girls. I’m not saying that I am big, but when you stand next to a beanpole, you’re going to look like a massive tree trunk.
“Literally, it’s only in the past six months that I’ve come to terms with it. Before then…it was hard. I used to have private meltdowns all the time.”
The stylish star – whose parents are fashion designer Pearl Lowe and rocker Gavin Rossdale – also admitted when she isn’t working, she loves to wear the clothes of her actor boyfriend Matt Smith, particularly when he is away filming as they make her feel closer to him.
She told the July issue of InStyle magazine: “He dresses really well. I love his style.”

Daisy Lowe wore a dress every day for six months.
The British model felt guilty for spending £2,200 on a Gareth Pugh dress so felt the only way to justify its high price tag was to get as much wear out of it as possible.
She explained: “My most extravagant purchase was my Gareth Pugh dress I wore to an awards ceremony.
“It was £3,000. I got a 20 per cent discount and I also DJ-ed for a Brown’s party to get some more money off and it was still £2,200!
“I felt so bad I had to wear it every day for six months for at least five minutes.”
Despite her expensive gown, Daisy loves to save money by shopping at discount high street store Primark and taking clothes from her mother Pearl Lowe’s wardrobe.
Asked if she borrows Pearl’s clothes, she told Closer magazine: “Yes, massively so. She’s such a great collector of vintage clothes. She gets really p***ed off but she’s started to wear more of my clothes now.
“I think the British high street is really good. Topshop is the main one because there’s always something for everyone’s shape and size.
“I love Primark. I think it’s amazing. My godmother is a real patron of Primark – she’s been going there since before it was cool.”

Daisy Lowe’s skin suffers when she is stressed.
The British model has learned to look after herself better in order to prevent breakouts, which she admits used to be frequent.
She said: “Whenever I get stressed I end up spotty.
“I try to have regular reflexology and get a good night’s sleep.
“I now get lymphatic drainage massages at my gym and they cleared my skin up in about three weeks.”
Daisy also revealed she has learned to accept her flaws and stop envying the bodies of other people so much.
She said: “When I was modelling, I’d often think, ‘Why can’t I be more like so-and-so?’ But I realise you have to be nice to yourself.
“There’s always something you don’t like, so concentrate on what you love.”
The brunette beauty takes care of her appearance, but hates some aspects of grooming, particularly removing her body hair.
She added to Britain’s Cosmopolitan magazine: “I enjoy my legs being smooth but I get annoyed when I have to constantly shave my armpits.
“Bikini waxing is so unfair, but if you want to wear a bikini, you have no choice. I think men should at least do a little clipping in return.”

The rainy weather may be clearing and the summer on its way but that doesn’t mean we have to say goodbye to those wellies. In fact, with festival season just around the corner, these rubber boots are once again making a comeback.
Last Thursday we were given an introduction to the festival season, minus the mud, rain, and erm camping, when Havaianas took over the Ultra Lounge at Selfridges turning it into a festival fantasy land complete with hay bales, grass and of course the token celebrity, to celebrate the launch of their wellies.
That’s right our fave party poppets including Jameela Jamil and Daisy Lowe were out in force. Jameela Jamil looked hot in an orange halter top, while Daisy Lowe, who was also DJing at the event, went for a silky maxi dress. Laura Whitmore also looked hot in an assemble of black. When Daisy wasn’t on the decks we were treated to music from artist Jamie Woon as well as dance artists ‘Brazilian Fantasy’ who took to the floor and created dance frenzy toward the end of the night.
Add to that the free flow of caipirinha’s and other Brazilian cocktails by Sagatiba and foods including Tacos, Fajitas, Mini Fish n’Chips & Burgers and the company gave us that dream festival feel. Take note festival organisers we want this kind of treatment all summer.
However, the real stars of the night were of course the brand new wellies, which we fell in love with. Bright pinks with grey trimmings, purples, greys with pink trimmings and of course on-trend khaki green were all colours on display. Those feeling a little bit more daring also have a choice of a summer beach theme and for £45 a pair they really are a wardrobe must have.
See the gallery below for all the celebrity action and for some peeks of the boots.

Daisy Lowe wants to be a Bond Girl.
The British model admits she has some ambitions to be an actress and would love to land a role in one of the movies about iconic British spy James Bond, who is currently played by Daniel Craig.
She said: “I would love, love, love to be a Bond girl. That’s a goal, isn’t it?”
Daisy – who is currently dating ‘Doctor Who’ star Matt Smith – also admitted she used to be “obsessed” with Justin Timberlake and seeing some of his recent work has reignited her crush on the singer-and-actor.
She told You magazine: “It was always Justin Timberlake. I was obsessed with him. I watched him in ‘The Social Network’ and it was reignited – ‘I want to marry you!’ ”
The 22-year-old beauty – the daughter of Gavin Rossdale and Pearl Lowe – says her mother has been the biggest influence in her life and she even feels grateful to have been told to get a job while she was still at school.
She added: “My mum is amazing, she’s incredibly creative – I remember her drawing pictures of flowers when I was a child – and she has taught me such a lot. And she was always good at teaching me to be independent. Aged 14 I had a Saturday job in Agent Provocateur on Broadwick Street in London.”
