A columnist likened her appearance to a Botticelli angel.

["Designers get serious about dressing the customers", Pacific Stars and Stripes (newspaper), Tuesday, March 26, 1996, pg. 15.]

Following a 1997 Paris, France showing of Karl Lagerfeld designs for Chanel, Hume was queried by a Russian TV reporter. He asked her what was the most exciting part of her job. She answered, "Um, the money." ["Fun With Fashion", New York Times, June 1, 1997, pg. SM63.] She appeared in a bias-cut chiffon gown designed by Donatella Versace at the January 1998 Milan fashion show. ["In Milan, Men's Wear Addresses The Globe", New York Times, January 13, 1998, pg.

Parker Posey and Donna Karan were also customers of the business, which sells to patrons by appointment only. ["Hippie Slips", New York Times,August 9, 1998, pg. ST3.]

Hume attended a Halloween party at Lot 61 in Chelsea, Manhattan, with Leitch and Oliver Stone, in 1998.

Hume and Leitch eschewed city life and relocated to Woodstock, New York. Hume began to study painting and paganism after their move. She is fond of wearing flip flops and Birkenstocks.
