I'm not obsessively a follower of fashion in the way I used to be. But I still have all those magazines I bought at the time because I bought ones that felt a little timeless, more like books.

I buy tons of magazines. They're a big part of how I research characters. And I keep them around and go back to them years later. I just have stacks.

When I was younger, I had no interest. But after I went to Paris to see the collections for the first time a few years ago, they made a huge impression on me. I realized that fashion is an art form, like acting or painting.

I never looked at magazines before I started modeling. I was 13 or 14, and none of my friends were into magazines. We were into the fashion of the day, though.

I was twelve years old when I started reading 'Vogue.'

I read fashion magazines all the time. It's fun, but I don't take it very seriously.

I worked at magazines for over 10 years before I even thought of writing a book.

I admired the work of photographers like Beaton, Penn, and Avedon as much as I respected the grittier photographers such as Robert Frank. But in the same way that I had to find my own way of reportage, I had to find my own form of glamour.
