pictured above: Abbey Lee for 10 Magazine's Summer 2010 issue5 things you may not know about model Abbey Lee Kershaw:
1. She has a pet lizard called Annie Hall (which she takes to the pub).
2. She has 6 tattoos and 10 piercings - "If I weren't a model, I'd be a walking collage" (she has a "fascination" with pain, despite being scared of needles).
3. She's a former dancer.
4. She has no shame - she once wet the bed with her boyfriend in it.
5. She swings both ways.
For me, Abbey Lee is a reminder that if you fall - you better get back up again. And she has quite literally done just that - despite what would seem career ending to most. In 2008 she famously fainted on the runways of Paris - the show was Alexander McQueen's 2009 Spring/Summer collection - the culprit was Fashion Week fatigue and a particularly tight corset. Two weeks prior, Kershaw took a fall at Rodarte - becoming a victim of Nicholas Kirkwood's vertiginous heels.
