Quotes[]

  • The fact is I'm choosy, but mainly about a man's character. He has to be interesting, funny and clever. I don't even mind if he's not very good-looking.
  • I think modelling was like the university of life, really. You get to travel but you get thrown into this adult world, which is kind of quite scary.
  • Fashion isn't me, even though I work in it. It's just materialistic stuff.
  • I'm not the new anything; I'm just Agyness.
  • I want to play positive role models, women who mean something to other women.
  • I've always been really private about my personal life. I don't talk about it.
  • Not just in modeling, but in society, there's so much pressure about what a woman should be, and, of course, it's just so unobtainable. You can never become that thing, because it's such a projection.
  • Modelling is only about the look. In acting, it's the feel that matters.
  • I never knew modelling was what I wanted to do. I was just meandering through life having fun, having a laugh with my friends.
  • I'd like a relationship that was like two tree trunks side by side, strong but independent.
  • If you have a connection to someone, it doesn't matter what their exterior is.
  • I don't really see myself as a big supermodel.
  • I don't really go to fashion parties; they're not my scene.
  • It is so inspiring when you come across a woman who is very strong and dedicated and is amazing at what they do. That's how I feel about Meryl Streep. You watch her, and you can't help but notice all of that about her. She's so influential.
  • When I first started modelling, as I was walking down the catwalk I just thought, 'Please don't fall over, please don't fall over, please don't fall over!'
