Yasmin Parvaneh first appeared on the fashion scene in 1985, on the covers of AMERICAN
and BRITISH ELLE.
Born in Oxford, England to an English mother, Yasmin inherited her exotic olive-skin from her Iranian
father.
She was 19 when she signed-on at a notable London-based modelling agency.
During the 1980's, Yasmin
became part of that exclusive group of girls known simply to everyone as the 'supermodel'. Working together, she formed close
friendships with colleagues Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington, Elle MacPherson and others.
Yasmin's biggest joy is her family! Since the age of 21, Yasmin has been happily married to Simon Le
Bon, lead singer of the famed English band DURAN DURAN. After seeing Yasmin in a magazine, Simon was determined to meet her.
So, he hounded his friends and colleagues in the effort to get an introduction. From that moment, the two have been inseparable.
The couple now have three daughters: Amber Rose born in 1989, Saffron in 1991 and Tallulah in 1994.
After the birth of their third child, and an eighteen month absence, Yasmin returned to the runways
with her daughters to walk for CHANEL and MARKS & SPENCER.
In 1997, Yasmin made her acting debut in the BBC's SEX
AND CHOCOLATE television series, in which she played a fashion model. Two years later, she appeared with her husband Simon,
in HUNTING VENUS, a film about an 80's rock band.
Yasmin was part of the 1997 Yasmin Mills' documentary BLOODY WOMAN
DRIVERS, containing interviews of English girls with a passion for automobiles.
Well into the new millennium, Yasmin
has been on the covers of AUSTRALIAN ELLE, HARPERS & QUEEN and February 2003's RED with colleagues Cindy Crawford &
Gail Elliott. She's also been featured in recent editorials for ITALIAN VOGUE, BUSINESS VOGUE and DUTCH, as well as, in the
advertising campaign for MOET photographed by Patrick Demarchelier.
Living in England, Yasmin finds time occasionally
for some special modelling assignments but devotes most of her time to her family.

Is it a sin to be this beautiful?

Yasmin and Simon together
"It was immediate and compulsory. I had to have
her. I had to get married to her. I had a feeling it was going to happen when I saw her photograph. She had this smile and
I looked at it and thought, 'I could wake up with that smile for the rest of my life'!" - Simon on seeing Yasmin for the first time, 1990
With newborn Amber...what a beautiful family! |
