[On her thinness:] It's not what you'd call a figure, is it?
Lesley Lawson -
What happened to me in the Sixties was so major and so worldwide and so huge, there's no way I can repeat it. But in a way, I had nothing to do with it, it just took me over. It was bizarre, it was weird, and I had no control over it. I don't think anyone could have planned what happened to me.

I eat healthily because that's the way I prefer to eat, and I'm sure it helps keep the weight off.
Lesley Lawson -
I love flat shoes, more so than heels. One of my obsessions is men's co-respondent lace-ups.
Lesley Lawson -
My relationship with M&S continues to be an exciting journey, from modelling to designing my online range.
Lesley Lawson -
If I want to calm down, I'll buy some fabric, get a pattern, shut myself in a room and stay there for days, really happy. And at the end of it, you get a bedspread or some curtains or something to wear - it's lovely.
Lesley Lawson -
If you just say nothing, there is no way they can make you talk.
Lesley Lawson -
As every teenage girl, I was absolutely obsessed with The Beatles, and the first record I bought was 'Please Please Me.' I'd have been 13 at the time.

I love corduroy jeans as well as vertical-striped jeans. Both are a fun switch from plain old denim. They can be slimming so long as the stripes aren't too chunky.
Lesley Lawson -
Ballet pumps are the dream shoes because they are so comfortable. They look great both with jeans and summer dresses; and you can even wear the right pair with an evening gown.
Lesley Lawson -
I was always telling girls who said that they wanted to be the 'next' Kate Moss or the 'next' Gisele that it wasn't possible, because the 'next' girl wasn't going to look like anybody else; she would be somebody unique. If you look at all the great models... they all have an individual look.
Lesley Lawson -
I'm grateful for my lines of wisdom. Of course, there are days when I think: 'Oh my gawd, I look a bit tired.' But I can pull it together if I have to.
Lesley Lawson -
Even before I was discovered in 1966, I used to make my own clothes. I learned how to sew early on, and it's still my passion now. I constantly have ideas in my head about clothes so jumped at the chance to do my own collection and am very hands-on. Everything I design, I wear and I love.
Lesley Lawson -
For special occasions, I love pretty dresses - but nothing too frou-frou!

Want to continue to try and break the barrier between male and female. If you want to do that, that's fine. At our shows, it's like a Halloween party, which isn't a bad thing. I'd like to see more of it actually.
Lesley Lawson -
I used to do my own make-up. I used to have this doll that had those big eyelashes on the top and bottom, and I think I copied her when I was doing my eyes, putting false eyelashes on the bottom as well as the top. So I came up with that look myself.
Lesley Lawson -
The 40s onwards are when we can really begin to enjoy ourselves. For many women, this is when everything comes together, and they look better than ever. The great thing about getting older is you don't have to do/wear/say anything you don't want to. It wasn't until my very late 30s that I stopped worrying about what other people thought.
Lesley Lawson -
I've had albums out since the 1970s. I was in a musical, 'The Boy Friend,' directed by Ken Russell, and I was on Broadway in 'My One And Only' with Tommy Tune, so I've always been a singer, but I suppose people think of my modelling more.
Lesley Lawson -
Being a grown-up woman doesn't mean you can't look beautiful, individual and different.
Lesley Lawson -
I used to be a thing; I'm a person now.

-
I didn't really know about Marilyn Manson - it's not my sort of music, not exactly the sort of thing I would curl up and listen to!
Lesley Lawson -
I was a very, very shy, insecure teenager.
Lesley Lawson -
You can't be a clothes hanger for your entire life.
Lesley Lawson -
Jamie Oliver's books are the best. I love Jamie. Bless him!
