The legendary Vogue photographer, 78, is widely regarded as one of the most successful lensmen in the fashion industry but when asked his thoughts on the 'Keeping Up With The Kardashian' reality TV star and Chanel model, he confessed the name didn't ring any bells.

Quizzed on his opinion of the 20-year-old leggy brunette and fellow top models Jourdan Dunn and Gigi Hadid, David retorted: "Never heard of any of them. Are these the current models? I wouldn't know who they are."

However the British photographer - whose career has spanned six decades - has made a few friends closer to home and revealed he enjoys working with blonde beauty Kate Moss, who hails from Croydon, England.

He told the Telegraph Magazine: "I didn't do fashion with Kate that often. I do her more these days. God, she came round the other night... Didn't leave till f******g four.. She can rabbit that one."
