Simon Le Bon had a succinct take on his daughter Amber’s new bright blue and pink hairstyle, which the model, revealed on the catwalk in London.

Attending last week’s London premiere of the documentary Diana Vreeland: The Eye Has To Travel, Simon said: ‘When it fades she will look like a German hippy – but she might quite like that.’

Amber wowed onlookers at Fashion Night Out earlier this month as she took to the catwalk with her shocking pink and blue dyed hair.

The model strutted down the catwalk at Westfield London as onlookers, including The Only Way Is Essex stars Jessica Wright and Sam Faiers, watched enthusiastically.

Speaking about her drastic new hair style, Amber said: 'I've just dyed half of my blonde streaks pink and red.

'I did it myself and know it looks shocking but I agree with Mum that a girl shouldn't get stuck in a rut and a time warp with hairstyles - like so many women do.

'Even I was shocked when Mum lopped off so much of her lovely hair, but she told me she really needed a radical change as a sort of mental stimulus!'

But, says Amber, 23,: 'Maybe I'm more cautious than Mum because I've only dyed half of my head- and it will wash out after a few months!'

Her boyfriend Jonny Hynes likes her crazy coloured new style.

47-year-old model Yasmin chopped off her long locks in favour of an edgy short style slicked back hair with an undercut.

Yasmin appears to be channeling a true 90s style- a look that most would fail to pull off.

But with her radiant and pillow soft skin, Yasmin pulls the look off with aplomb.

In fact the Iranian-British model could easily be confused with her daughter.
