As The Telegraph notes, "for the first time in a long while, a model is managing to bring some real femininity to the industry."

Daisy recently sat with The Telegraph for an interview, discussing her new home in Brooklyn, New York, the fashion industry's reluctance to hire "tits and arse," and the stress of being the sober kid. Some of Daisy's most endearing quotes:

"My biggest ambition is to do really well, but keep being a nice person and not let it affect me. Then I can buy a house and bow out. I'm going to get old and wrinkly, and when I'm older I'm going to put on loads of weight, and I'm excited about it. I think it's just really important to remember that you aren't your face."
"I think I’ll always be someone who worries about everyone else,’ she says. 'But in the past year I’ve done a lot of healing. I made a choice when I was very, very young that I was going to be an adult, and I never got to be a child because I always wanted to look after everyone else. What I’ve realised is key is being a mature adult but having an inner child, too, and that’s where you get the good balance. That way I can look after people but still have fun. It’s taken me 19 and a half years to work it out, but I’ve got there.
I went to [a model casting] on Saturday, and there was a gaggle of about five 6ft Russian girls who all weigh about 6st, and I’m just not that breed of a woman. Fashion is supposed to be fun and beautiful. But so much of the time it depresses so many people, because they think, “We need to lose weight.” The female form is such a beautiful thing. It should be celebrated and not put down, that’s the only reason I agreed to do the shows. I said, “I’ll give it a go to see if they’ll hire some tits and arse. If they will, then great!
