Kylie Bax went from winning a beauty contest in Thames to the catwalks of Milan in a matter of months. Soon she was gracing the cover of every top fashion magazine in the world. She gives Simon a rare insight into life as an elite model - from the hard work involved in getting a break, to hanging out with the A-list. She also talks her second career - breeding and syndicating race horses - and teases an exciting new business venture.
