At 57 Marie Helvin is still at the top of her game. If that game was anything other than modelling this wouldn’t be such a remarkable statement, but to be starring as the new face (and more importantly body), of Agent Provocateur when you’re three years off collecting your bus pass is no mean feat.
I caught up with Marie as she prepares to auction a selection of her wardrobe, to talk about her life and loves, her plans for the future and her take on the past.
