Macpherson, worth an estimated 35 million pounds, has admitted that she had to give up some of her extravagances since the global recession hit.
However, while the supermodel will cutback on her cars, she won't let her art collection suffer.
"I've been a conscious consumer for a while," she said.
"Two years ago I traded in my Range Rover for a Lexus and Ieither bike or take my Fiat Bambino on the school run. My only extravagance is art.
"It always has a place in my budget. All the artists I love, Lucian Freud, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Tracey Emin, Richard Prince, I've invested in," she added. (ANI)
