Daisy Rebecca Lowe[3] (born 27 January 1989) is an English fashion model who has modelled for editorial photo shoots, commercial advertising campaigns and fashion shows. She is the daughter of Pearl Lowe, the singer-songwriter turned textile and fashion designer, and Gavin Rossdale, lead singer of the rock band Bush.[4]

Early life

Lowe was born in Westminster, London, England, on 27 January 1989.

Jewish.[9]

Until 2004, Lowe was believed to be the daughter of Pearl Lowe's ex-lover Bronner Handwerger, but a paternity test revealed that her godfather, Bush singer/guitarist Gavin Rossdale, was, in fact, her biological father.[10][11][6] Her mother Pearl Lowe wrote about the situation in her book All That Glitters.

Career

Lowe began modelling at the age of two, and did some photoshoots when she was 12 and 14 years old.[12] At 15, she was approached by a talent scout in Camden Town and, as a result, she signed with Select, a London modelling agency.[13]

In February 2006, Lowe was featured in

Blondelle, photographed by Terry Richardson.[14]

On the runway, Lowe was selected by

Whistles, as well as for her mother's recent collection of lace dresses.[15]

Of the Whistles campaign, Lowe said, "[It] was a favourite shoot of mine. ... Modelling is a cool outlet for me to express myself, and fashion has always fascinated me. I love that fashion crosses into my other passions – music and art."[16]

Lowe's magazine work includes editorials and covers of publications such as

Tatler, Elle, GQ, Vogue, Paradis, Marie Claire, Interview, Jalouse, Teen Vogue, Dirty Glam, Grazia, InStyle, Nylon and The Sunday Times
Style amongst many others.
