You can’t turn a corner backstage without seeing a flash of her linen blonde hair and captivating green eyes; we’re talking about model of the moment Devon Windsor, who this season alone has walked for the likes of Tom Ford, Topshop Unique, Michael Kors, Jason Wu, Fendi and Moschino (and we’re only half way through Milan).

We caught up with the Saint Louis-born rising star backstage at Etro to talk high-street favourites, fashion week skincare saviours and her career changing moment.

Your best fashion investment piece?

‘I have two - a timeless leather jacket and a really good bag. A couple years back my Dad bought me a Prada bag when I started full-time modelling and I still use it to this day. If you take good care of those pieces they’ll last forever.’

Your top three skincare products during Fashion Week?

‘Definitely Bioderma Miceller Water make-up remover because it’s so gentle. At the moment I really like Weleda Skin Food, it’s so nourishing. Then at the end of the day I use my Clarisonic Skin Brush to really clean my make-up off.’

Favourite fashion week moment ever?

‘Definitely last season when I did the Prada show; the night before I was up until 3am waiting to hear if I was going to make it and finally I got the call. They bleached my hair and fit me for the clothes. That was my career changing moment, it was so exciting.’

Latest iPod download?

‘Beyonce’s new album and I listen to Lana Del Ray to chill out.’

Favourite place to shop in London?

‘I’ve heard that the Topshop is amazing, even better than the one in New York.’
