Crystal Renn, one of the most talked about models in the world, opens up to NET-A-PORTER about her modelling career and all or nothing approach to life. When she has a goal she chases it with gusto. Renn put up pictures of Steven Meisel in her younger years when her peers were hanging up posters of Leonardo DiCaprio. Two years later, she moved to New York. Even when it comes to a change in hair colour, such as her recent, temporary switch to blonde – ‘‘I wanted platinum baby’’, she laughs, ‘’and I did my eyebrows too.’’ In her book, Hungry, published in 2010, she candidly chronicled her tale of living and working with an eating disorder.  It was only when she allowed herself to feel secure at her ‘‘natural weight’’ and became healthy again – in body and mind – that her career took off.

Crystal recently revealed that she has started to film herself on modelling shoots. “The act of getting to see from that perspective has been a tremendous help in allowing me to dig deeper into myself.” Crystal would like her work, rather than her frame to make her famous. “I need to know if I should elongate my neck, put my shoulders down,” she explains. “It’s all about the details.” What will Crystal do when she no longer wants to be in front of the camera? “Photography, creative directing, styling, acting…I would never commit to just one” she says. “ A big goal for me is to design a fashion line with body diversity in mind.”
