I feel uncomfortable in anything tight or body-con.

I admire American women because they are really good at putting a look together that is sophisticated. As British girls, we lean toward being a bit more messy, a bit more undone, and maybe a little more eccentric.

I'm indie through and through. I've always gone out with boys in bands.

I don't like when people seem to put every single thing on and just walk up and down outside waiting to be photographed. I think that's a bit lame.

Music is my sport, and I'm the number-one athlete.

Often, I do translatlantic overnight flights from New York, and when I land, I have to do my eyes - I feel weird without it.

I feel like some women do get away with doing these sexy shoots and looking like they're being really empowered. For me, I'd feel really uncomfortable in that situation and a bit like I was being taken advantage of.

I'd like to give anyone else a go at being scrutinised. Daily. It's not easy.

I think it's every girl's dream, a little bit, to be a model because it seems from the outside to be a glamorous industry and I was really into fashion, and I remember just being excited and wanting to be part of that.

I think it's cool that London Fashion Week is about young designers trying wacky things.

If my boyfriend finds me sexy, then I don't need that kind of male attention from anyone else.

I didn't mean to be a TV presenter, I just hated modeling. It feels very odd that it's turned into this 'It-girl' thing. What does that even mean? I wear clothes and I go out. It's so weird.
