Marie Helvin (born August 13, 1952, Tokyo, Japan) is a British-based American fashion model, who worked extensively with David Bailey—to whom she was married between 1975 and 1985. In the 1970s and 1980s she appeared in many fashion stories for British Vogue and posed for a series of nude photographs made by David Bailey, which were published in his 1980 book ''Trouble and Strife''. They would collaborate on four more photographic books and continued to work on multiple stories for the British, French and Italian editions of ''Vogue''. ==Biography== Helvin was born in 1952, in Tokyo, where her American GI father of Danish and French descent, had married a local interpreter of Japanese descent, and was brought up in Hawaii from the age of four. She was approached by a model scout on a visit to Japan with her mother and signed up as the face of Kanebo cosmetics at 15.〔 She moved to London, where she worked for designers such as Yves Saint Laurent, Versace and Valentino, and married photographer David Bailey when she was 23, having met him when he chose her for a photographic session for ''Vogue''. Together Bailey and Helvin produced a memorable book of nudes titled ''Trouble and Strife'' in 1980. The marriage lasted ten years.〔 In the 1980s, Helvin left mainstream modelling to broaden her career, working for television and radio, covering subjects from books to travel, which in turn led to major television, radio and advertising campaigns, such as for Yves Saint Laurent and Olympus cameras, built around her personality and lifestyle. She launched her own collection of body/swimwear range in 1990 and went on to produce seasonal collections which sold worldwide. She published two books, made a health and fitness video, appeared on television and presented several programmes including GMTV's series ''Helvin on Hawaii'', which featured her philosophies on health and beauty. She remains in the forefront of the fashion industry, appearing as a judge in ''Britain's Next Top Model'', and with appearances in British ''Vogue'' and the US ''W'' magazine, features in ''Sunday Times'', and a retrospective in ''Harper's Bazaar''. She appeared on her 7th British ''Vogue'' cover in 2007. Her autobiography was released in late 2007 by Weidenfeld & Nicolson and published in paperback in September 2008 by Phoenix. ''The Sunday Times'' called the book "funny, naughty, sexy, revelatory".
