2009-03-23
Are you a fashion diva?
JIAH: Yes, absolutely, completely.
Beauty must haves?
JIAH: I don't really have any beauty must haves. I just use normal stuff, mainly from London. I use Sicily and I'm not into the cr'me de la mere stuff, it doesn't work until you're like 50.
Favourite accessories?
JIAH: My handbags, my rings, my shoes and my belts. I just love accessories.
Wardrobe essentials?
JIAH: You have to have a really nice pair of high heeled, metal healed stilettos. I actually have a really nice pair of stilettos they have a metal heel, like the S&M style that's so essential. And really nice underwear; on top you just wear whatever.
Do you have any secret beauty tips?
JIAH: Caviar on your face is apparently really fantastic. Another one is a chocolate face mask, you shouldn't eat it, you should just apply it on your face.
What is the weirdest item of clothing you have in your wardrobe?
JIAH: It would have to be my strange array of strange g-strings. I like have the weirdest stuff.
Do you have a favourite designer?
JIAH: Oh God I have so many. It depends for what. For belts, it has to be Dolce and Gabbana or Gucci. I love Gucci for bags too and Fendi and Marc Jacobs. Cavalli for dresses. For bikini's I would choose Missoni. For shoes Christiano Bouffant and for lingerie, Agent Provocateur. Abercrombie are really good for jeans.
What is the most expensive thing in your wardrobe?
JIAH: My fur coats that I'm so not proud of. I bought them in Paris and together both cost £20,000. One is chinchilla (brown) and the other one is rabbit I think, it's like a black biker jacket. It's the most beautiful thing
