It sounds like the move from buildings to headgear was a little challenging for our favorite Canadian-born starchitect, who drew the initial design for the hat on his iPhone: “Since I’ve never designed a hat before, I was afraid she wouldn’t be able to walk….I did have an idea that involved people with sticks holding it up, walking behind her.

We hear that the supermodel spotted a fellow guest at a wedding in London wearing a bracelet that she just had to have. So, of course, she got Topshop boss Philip Green to buy it for her right there and then. The guest?
