When we went to Spain with Kate Moss and Karen Elson for Italian Vogue, we came upon a house in the hills near Seville that looked like something out of A Fistful of Dollars. We knocked, and a handsome gentleman dressed as a cowboy opened the door. I couldn't believe it — there in the middle of Spain.
