(Not actually an article on Devon, it's about global beauty)
excerpt from article
" . . . It's taken a while for the establishment to catch up but,
finally, the idea that you have to be white to be beautiful (or
that being non-white was ever a handicap) has been replaced by a
brave New World Attitude. Sixteen-year-old model, Devon Aoki, was
chosen by the notoriously cautious Karl Lagerfeld as the latest
Chanel muse. She's half Japanese, half Anglo-Irish, but it's not
really the exoticism of her blood that makes you look twice. The
quality that makes her utterly mesmeric is her otherworldliness:
she doesn't look like anyone else on Earth . . . "
