About Tallulah Sylvia Maria Ormsby-Gore

English Mannequin ~ known as Tallulah Harlech.

Born Tallulah Ormsby Gore in 1988, Tallulah Harlech is the daughter of Lady Amanda Harlech, muse of Karl Lagerfeld, and English aristocrat Francis Ormsby Gore. Her early childhood was spent in the country with her elder brother Jasset, whilst her mother worked for John Galliano in London. She was reared among fashion figureheads such as US Vogue's Andre Leon Talley, photographer Bruce Weber and Isabella Blow, all of whom are close acquaintances of her mother. She has spoken of her childhood spent around fashion royalty recalling an encounter with Naomi Campbell when she was 12 years old, revealing that she remembers her mother telling the model to "smile at Puff Daddy". Now a model and aspiring actress, she has become a style icon in her own right - photographed by the likes of Mario Testino, Bruce Weber, Kayt Jones and Karl Lagerfeld.
