Kate Moss is small and not necessarily model dimensions but she has that special something.

Granted, it's not easy to be a super-tall woman in Hollywood. But there are times when it works in my favour. In 'The Night Manager,' for example, both of my co-stars, Hugh Laurie and Tom Hiddleston, are also well over 6 ft. and it was lovely to look a co-star in the eye and not have them standing on an apple box!

When I think of the most beautiful women, they're not supermodels.

I don't really see myself as a big supermodel.

I think to be a supermodel you first had to be a model, and I think people are jumping and missing that stage.

If I tried to start modeling right now, I wouldn't be a supermodel because it's all about celebrity.

I was always looking up to supermodels. They were, like, my superheroes.

It's not really like you have a thing like a supermodel anymore. It's more of a word than a real existence. I think, also, looking at it from a designer's point of view, at one point maybe they felt the stars took too much attention away from the clothes.

It is also interesting to note that the original supermodels are now making a comeback after being dismissed in the Nineties as being 'greedy' by a gaggle of male designers who lived like Sun Kings.

I was always telling girls who said that they wanted to be the 'next' Kate Moss or the 'next' Gisele that it wasn't possible, because the 'next' girl wasn't going to look like anybody else; she would be somebody unique. If you look at all the great models... they all have an individual look.
