“My Life Is Taking Shape Like Never Before!” Elle Macpherson Shares What’s Making Her Tick These Days

by Freya Drohan

Elle Macpherson is enjoying life in the slow lane—well, as much as a multi-hyphenate supermodel and entrepreneur can. ‘The Body’ has just launched a new collaboration with Karen Millen as part of the British fashion brand’s ICONS series, which teams up with the industry’s most legendary names for capsule edits. But this summer, you’ll find her winding down and keeping zen. Here’s what she’s reading, listening to, eating, and enjoying—should you feel like taking a leaf out of the Aussie goddess’ book. 

Tell us about how your collaboration with Karen Millen came about!
I was honored to be approached by the team to collaborate on the latest ICONS campaign. I’m all for personal style as the ultimate aspiration, and Karen Millen is a brand that represents the modern woman with its chic, timeless, quality designs, and great style. I loved the shoot and worked with a great team co-creating the images

What’s your biggest fashion regret?
There’s been a few dodgy hair experimentations along the way!

What’s your best-ever fashion or red carpet moment?
The Met Ball 2005. I went straight from the beach in the Bahamas and wore a Calvin Klein by Narciso Rodriguez long, chartreuse green, satin strapless dress with a pair of gold Melissa Odabash flip flops.
