Primary Evidence

"The first out as Christmas model is Elle Macpherson, who in the fashion industry is nicknamed "The Body". Yes, the whole "big six" of supermodels - Elle Macpherson, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, Christy Turlington, and Linda Evangelista - are doing H&M campaigns. That Elle Macpherson is the first out is a decision made by Stefan Persson himself, he says in an interview a few years later. He mentions that he first falls for a woman's eyes. "From them comes warmth, humor, and radiance." The interview is conducted after his divorce from Pamela, and he comments on the separation with an openness that is unusual for him.[44](private://read/01jas9tvg84jycb27616w1f9k8/#note-44)"

"I went down to wait for her and then the mobile rang. It was Blackstone Group’s chairman Steve Schwarzman wanting to meet me in five minutes. But I was in the lobby with Claudia Schiffer about to arrive, so I grabbed another bystander whom I knew and said: ‘I’ve got the dream job here for you. Will you take over?’ He took over and I went to meet Steve. ‘I hope you realise what I’m doing for you here today because meeting you I’m giving up meeting Claudia Schiffer,’ I told him. ‘Really? Is she here?’ he asked. ‘Yes. She’s here. She just walked into a party down the corridor.’ After hearing this, he was, of course, much more interested in going to the party and meeting her."
