“Gift giving and receiving is something that’s really important to me,” supermodel Iman says in the latest episode of Objects of Affection, a Vogue video series in which the world’s greatest designers, models, and creatives share their favourite things. “It’s something that. . . it’s really from the heart.”
So it’s perhaps no surprise that Iman's Catskills home is full of them. There’s a wicker pillow given to her by Naomi Campbell, an African three-legged stool from fellow model and best friend Bethann Harrison, who she has talked to every single day since 1975. Then there are the gifts from her late husband, David Bowie. On their first holiday to Paris, for example, he got her an Hermes bag. “He bought himself—you won’t believe it—sandals, and he bought me this,” says Iman, almost laughing.
Watch Iman walk through her home as she talks about Bowie, her new perfume Love Memoir, and more of her meaningful objects.
