DEC £3.80VOGUE TREND UPDATE 50 pieces to fall in love with DRESSING FOR DATING AND DITCHING fashion, fame and fortune: the dynamic world of LILY COLE Lily Cole LilyBeauty Cole and Brains She’s a catwalk star and graces the covers of the world’s most exclusive magazines. But Lily Cole has still found time to earn a place at Cambridge. John Walsh wonders at the flame-haired 18-year- old who’s so much more than just a pretty face She is 18 years old and 5ft 10ins tall, and worth somewhere in the region of £11m. Her perfectly heart-shaped face, with its determined little chin and cupid’s-bow mouth, surmounts a long willowy body and pitifully attenuated legs, often clothed in tight black leggings to resemble two strings of liquorice. Her mane of curly red hair would have hurled Titian into swoony raptures, and filled Dante Gabriel Rossetti with dark thoughts better kept to himself. Her eyes, however, do not radiate inno- cence. They are blue, but not baby-blue. They are as knowing as Madonna’s. They gaze out from the catwalk, and the pages of the nation’s adoring fashion pages, and they say: I Am Not To Be Mucked About. Lily Cole is a model who is going her own sweet way. And that way, remarkably enough, is into high- er education. ll the newspapers covered the story twice: once, earlier this month, when Ms Cole announced that she intended to go to university - grades permitting - and put her lucrative modelling career on hold; and again when it was revealed that she’d been awarded three straight As, and had secured a place at Cambridge University to study social and political sciences at King’s College, the alma mater of E M Forster, John May- nard Keynes and Zadie Smith. It is, of course, howlingly counter-intuitive that a young woman who has been signed up by the nation’s top model agency and featured on the front of Vogue, could bear to leave behind the exciting jet-set life and the even more exciting supermodel salary, to bury herself in student life. Can you imagine Claudia Schiffer or Erin O’Connor going to lectures on dialectical ma- terialism, living on Pot Noodles and halves of lager, conduct- ing on-off romances with northern chemists called Stanley, dressing as babies for rag week or hookers for the May Ball, or staying up all night discussing the lyrics of Maximo Park? Would they turn down all that money? Displaying a maturity that borders on the freakish, Lily Cole has spent the past two years combining modelling work with studying for A levels in English, politics and philosophy-and-ethics. She did homework assignments on planes ferrying her from catwalks in Paris to New York or Rome, and apparently read textbooks while she was having her hair done. When not studying at Latymer Upper School in Hammersmith, west London (fees £12,000 a year) she attended a South Kensington crammer in the Easter holiday. “I’m always the first to hand in my work, because I know if I’m late the teachers will come down on me like a ton of bricks. Modelling is great, but studies come first,” she said. Thank goodness that Ms Cole does not Consequat essenim dipsuscilit lan exerat Pit, si blan venim iurem vel dunt lan- always so closely resemble the Goody iureet aut velesenibh ea feugait vulputem drem ing ea aut ver suscilla at.
