Fashion's coolest young model offers her unique slant on High-Street style.

Devon Aoki has the kind of wardrobe and lifestyle that most 17-year-old girls would happily burn their Buffalo trainers for. Three years on from her catwalk debut at the age of 14, Devon - the current face of Chanel and muse to Karl Lagerfeld - is now a big name in fashion. "When I started out, I was going through a punk phase and looked kind of weird," says the LA-born model, now living in North London. The Anglo/Japanese beauty still puts school work before the catwalk and only did a few shows last season so she could concentrate on her final year. Devon gives street style a sophisticated twist: "My style is a huge mix of everything," she reveals. She may have a weakness for Fendi and Gucci but she's equally happy shopping at Top Shop and Camden market. "I love customising my own clothes," she says. "At the moment I'm into studding my own jeans and beading my own jewellery."

Clockwise from top left:
HIP GLAMOUR: H&M sleeveless top, Jean Paul Gaultier skirt - "This is such a brilliant colour. It matches my wristbands perfectly.
LA COOL: Studd vest, Jeremy Scott headband, Earl Jeans, Thierry Mugler stilettos - "This vest is really glam rock. I love the pink, and the studding is so pretty."
SCHOOLGIRL CHIC: Benetton grey tank - "This simple tank could easily be dressed up or down."
