Discovered at the tender age of thirteen this part-time cookery show hostess with the mostess was born in Tokyo and now lives in London. With a finger in every industry pie, having presented for NME TV, MTV and featured in more editorials than she can cares to remember, Naomi has a whole host of fans in the highest places. Diane von Furstenberg thinks she’s some sorta freaky genius. Naomi is single-handedly proving an upbeat attitude beats a posy pout any day.
