Agyness Deyn flouts smoking ban backstage at New York Fashion Week
Updated 11:13am on 11 Sep 2008
Agyness Deyn likes to bend the rules when it comes to fashion - and smoking.
The model was caught lighting up a cigarette as she relaxed backstage at Anna Sui's New York Fashion Week catwalk show yesterday despite the presence of a 'No Smoking' sign.
What ban? Agyness Deyn ignored the 'No Smoking' sign backstage at an Anna Sui catwalk show in New York yesterday
She brazenly flouted the ban inside the Bryant Park tent, with organisers apparently turning a blind eye.
Earlier, Agyness walked the catwalk at the designer's brightly coloured show, which featured matador details and Aztec prints.

The blonde has been in high demand this week, modelling for designers Narciso Rodriguez and Carolina Herrera in recent days.
She's also managed to find time to be a spectator - she attended Costello Tagliapietra's catwalk show earlier this week accompanied by her brother Greg.
A host of celebrities have turned out for Fashion Week this year, including Victoria Beckham, fellow Spice Girl Mel B, actress Jessica Alba and Gossip Girl star Blake Lively.

Shes a burst of fresh air. There isn't any model out in the business who is as independently stylish as she is. People need to stop harassing and calling someone ugly just because , in my opinion, they're jealous of the fact that they are most likely unattractive themselves. I don't get why people call her ugly. Shes a smoker, so what?! She smoked in front of a sign, SO WHAT?! I'm sure someone you guys j walked a couple of times in your life and thats still illegal. I've been to Bryant Park, and I've seen models out side of the tents do worse. Its a tent, air gets through. I'm sure the designers are %100 okay with it. If not Anna Sui herself would have came out and said something to her. Suck it up!

She is horrible and ugly, especially with that cancer stick hanging from her mouth, and obviously too stupid to understand that smoking stopped being considered cool long ago, it's just considered sad nowadays, and it stinks, smokers always stink. I would have challenged her if I was there and told her to get outside and not make others breathe her poison. Just pathetic that people turned a blind eye just because she is a supermodel so-called. The photographic proof exists and a prosecution should follow, it's an open and shut case, she should be made an example of (or Kate Moss).
