London, Mar 8 : Agyness Deyn has inherited her grandma Agnes Cook''s off-the-wall style, according to the supermodel's mum.

"My mum was a real beauty and she was really into fashion. She used to work as a window dresser at C&A in Manchester. She was a teenager during the war when there wasn''t much money about so she used to try to do different things with her clothes," The Mirror quoted Lorraine, as saying.

She continued: "She used to wear her cardigan back to front so that the buttons fastened down the back, just so she''d look a bit different.

"Both Agy and her sister Emily are really into fashion. They have their own style, and like to look a bit different. But my mum was trying to do that in the 1940s!"

Agyness, 26, is the darling of fashion designers and glossy magazines the world over. (ANI)
