  1. I don't believe that Bellazon allows linking to anything that might be 'self promoting' so I messaged you with the link.
  2. I'm new to this thread, and as much as I appreciate the work involved with posting, it's disappointing that so many of the older pics have gone into the Twilight Zone and disappeared. I scan older bridal magazines and have over 42,000 scans. Posting them in any forum would be crazy time consuming, so here's what I'm now doing. This might be applicable to this thread to get the older pictures out there. I have a Tumblr blog where I post. You can post 250 pictures a day in sets of 30 at a time. This takes me less than 10 minutes every morning. The pictures can be up to 2048 x 3072 pixels. The best part is that there's free software that lets you download EVERYTHING at once. The program is on GitHub and is called TumblThree. I've found this to be an easy (and FREE!) way to get my thousands of scans out into the wild for others to enjoy. Anyone is free to message me for the links if you want.
  3. Thanks for the reply but I don't see a resemblance. Just recently I saw the following picture of Gale ingram here, http://picturesofbeautifulwomen.blogspot.com/2011/09/model-gale-ingram.html Gale looks much like my mystery lady but I can't find any other references to her.
  4. Great find! I'm downloading and saving them using 4K video downloader. https://www.4kdownload.com/-43
  5. Thanks for the ID BlueAcadia. This solves one of my longtime mystery ladies too.
  6. My scan....
  7. Oo! Thanks from me too. I've seen her often in catalogue and clothing ads from back then. Nice to have a name.
  8. Thanks a bunch for these, very nice shots.
  9. Thanks for this update. I'm a huge fan of commercial models from the 80's and 90's. 🤩
  10. Thanks for these, I much prefer the catalogue stuff over her personal pictures.
  11. *sigh*...thanks for trying. I'll keep looking.
  12. Here's one I've been hunting for since I saw her in a bridal magazine in the 80's. She did mostly bridal gowns and formal wear for magazines (Demetrios) and one appearance in a lingerie catalogue. She was late 80's to early 90's. I've been through the model list at Marlowe Press and drawn a blank. I've even emailed the designers of dresses she modeled in hopes that they have a historical list but have never received a response.
  13. Thanks missparker7 for those ID's. In the first pcture, I assume that Nancy DeWeir is the bride on the right?
  14. Yippee! Thanks a BIG bunch for the confirmation. I've been trying to identify this model for years and only just stumbled into this thread this morning while hunting for someone else. If anyone is interested, I can post the rest of them.
  15. Is this Megan Williams? They're from 2016 Mori Lee prom dresses.
  16. Thanks for these. I love seeing new posts of classic models from that 80's and 90's.
  17. Excellent find! Thanks a bunch for these.
  18. I have an offer to any serious collectors of bridal imagery. I've been buying older bridal magazines from Ebay for many years and scanning the gown ads. I share these high resolution scans with a few other fans and am opening it up to folks here. At one time I sent a portable hard drive around the world, but this has become cumbersome. I now share it via Mega.nz, a widely used file sharing site. The entire collection spans mostly the mid 70's to the mid 90's and includes a few odds and ends from other collectors. It's *gulp* over 200GB in size. Because a free Mega account only allows 50GB at a time, I upload a bunch of files and send links around. Once everyone has gotten them, I delete them and upload a new batch. This has worked well so far. Interested folks are invited to message me and I'll give you my email address so that you can be included in the download links.
  19. Here's some shots of her from the 2016 Mori Lee online catalogue where she modeled prom gowns. I have all of the images from this site and if anyone wants them I'll put them in a rar file and stick it in my Mega box for easy download. There's too many large images to put here. Oh and thanks to modelknowledge for identifying her.
  20. Thanks for all these posts, I've always been intrigued by print models from the 70's, 80's and 90's.
  21. Thanks Eva, for giving it a try. I'm presently going through the (new to me) model archives of Marlowe Press. There must be a few thousand ladies listed, making me certain I'll find her...among others. Thanks again.
  22. Thanks for the response. I'm sorry to hear that your site was closed as I'm a fan (without being weird, creepy or obsessive) of models from the 80's and early 90's. The seventies was also a fun era...I fondly remember the Sears and Eatons catalogues...*sigh*. I sympathize with your desire to rescue dogs. We take in stray or rescued cats, including injured feral cats. We even kept one of the wild cats who settled down and turned into a pretty nice house cat. Anyway, I'd like to take you up on your offer to identify models from that era. Please have a look at the following thread here on Bellazon and let me know if she's familiar. Again, thanks a big bunch. Bob.
  23. Aha! Thanks for this post. I'm looking to identify as many models as possible who appeared in bridal ads from the 80's and 90's. By the way, there's been no new posts from Eva in several years and her intended site lists the domain as being for sale. Did this idea of a site showcasing those amazing ladies from the 80's and 90's die?
  24. What should one do if there's hundreds of images of a particular model? My interest lies in models modelling formal wear. I'll find a model in say the Morilee site where she appears in several hundred photos wearing a wide variety of Bridal, formal and prom gowns. I post a few representative images, then the link and a short synopsis of the site. If folks are fans of the model, they'll go and grab them for themselves. The other problem is that these image hosting sites go up and down frequently, or hold your image hostage behind spam downloaders. A better solution might be for serious fans of any particular model to host them all in a free Mega account in a rar or zip format. This way, fans can download the whole collection in one go rather than click, click, right click, save.
