Last year, whilst boarding a Virgin Atlantic flight back from New York, Mr and Mrs That's Not My Age spied Mr and Mrs Le Bon being fast-tracked onto the plane. Homeward-bound after an appearance at the Met Ball, the Le Bons boarded the aircraft to the tune of No..No..Notorious, sung by cheeky ground crew.
Back at Heathrow, we were impressed to see Yasmin, Simon and a Virgin steward keeping it real at the carousel with the plebs from economy - though why SLB needed his guitar is still a mystery. After the six and a half hour overnight flight, the 45 year-old was still looking good (that's Yasmin not Simon), face practically unchanged since the Elle magazine covers of the eighties. Chic in a camel Belstaff jacket, easy trousers and low-key trainers. I admire a woman who knows that travelling in style doesn't mean tottering through check-in with a burly minder, four inch platforms and over-sized sunglasses. And with that in mind, I'm pleased to see the latest YLB for Wallis collection hits the shops next week. My favourite supermodel's venture into fashion design, is, as you'd imagine, elegant, infinitely wearable and timeless.
Available online from 30 March.

She is so gorgeous and looks so elegant now. I love the black dress.
I love the dress at the top of your post. Yasmin always looks stunning and yes indeed, she really is that gorgeous close up!
I love the second one down, it's just beautiful. It may even tempt this high street-phobe!
She's gorgeous (unlike her hubbie)

Hi there-really love the last one, but they are all really covetable, I so want a maxi dress this season!!
I love Yasmin and remember the first edition of UK Elle with her on the cover. Sadly I have lost that issue now. Also she is the same age as me, just wish I looked as good as she does. Will definitely look out for thses on the High St.
She is so lovely...think I like the middle dress best though. x
I like all three dresses but the middle one is the most interesting I think.

I really don't know how she does it! I have seen some pictures of her new range, it looks good!
Thank you all for your comments. Finchley Girl if you find that copy of Elle let me know!
Thanks for the comment. I'm so interested in your interiors project, house style is my passion. If you need me just shout!

The black one. I'm officially rather boring I think.
She is great. Luckily I've got my mum's maxi dress to wear this summer but the Wallis one's look fab!
Is she being punished by being forced to stand in the corner in those pictures? Will she be forced to wear a dunce cap next? Poor thing!
I love YLB, she has always had my vote as the most elegant and seemingly down-to-earth super model-married-to-a-rock-star. Of course we should add 'former' to all of that...xx
I think I liked the tiered one best. It highlights her brilliant shape.
Vix - I'll be in touch, or maybe you could drop me an email?
WendyB - or maybe she'll be forced to listen to Duran Duran on a continous loop?
HH - of course.. and then pray there's no comeback tour!
enc - thanks & nice haircut!
Hi-I love a celeb (Sleb) sighting! Well done. Have added you to my blog list x
FF - thank you, it's an honour and a privilege!
Oh yes I have always really liked JLB too she is very classy and looks amazing - totally the opposite to SLB I dont like him at all.
Yasmin is beautiful and talented. But we must remember that if she had not married Simon Le Bon, probably would not be talking about it here today.
Saw her at LFW, sitting next to Liberty London Girl. LLG didn't know who she was *incredulous* - what a waste of a seat! Anyway, she looked beautiful and I have it on good authority she's a lovely person too. OK, gush over.
PS, I have just checked and I have not one but TWO of those original first Elles. No idea why...
