Lineage of Beauty: Minnie Cushing

Marvellous in motion, Minnie Cushing loves surfing, riding, skiing on land or water, flying, scooting about on her brother's Triumph. And — appetite for speed still unsated — she has taken up sky-diving. Not even the sky's the limit for Minnie, going all-outdoors at an intoxicating clip. Her thick hair, often wet as seaweed, goes the way the wind does, and goes with winging brows, dark piquant eyes, a disarming candour.
