YES! I am just like you..I thought they would always be so pretty, so why save them? Boy, was I wrong!

thanx^ Jade. from Kiki:

Ok, I'm understanding the obsession found these, and hope they aren't reposts..if so I can delete

I am sorry penny-fearsome, but I didn't find the info..I know I have it somewhere. I have about 1200 fashion magazines (1980-1992), so it's usually very difficult to find something I remember seeing in them...sorry. I inform you if/when I find it. I must say that I love this woman. She is so beautiful that looking at her beauty almost brings tears into my eyes:

I love her! Thank you so much Spec! from 1987 (with Iman and Louise Vyent)

Yeah, I'd appreciate that as well. a scan from omifan:

Wonderful scans Kiks....THANKS for your effort! (Y)

My God, she's breath-taking. Hey Phil, I think this is her for Navy-White perfume Let's keep our eye out for it!

Thanks for the great posts, Rebecca!

Awesome^

Megan--why ?

Stella and Erin just embody Chanel to me....love ALL your posts play!

Thanks. Now that I saw your sweet signature...I have to add; part of the tragedy of losing Ruslana is that she was a bit of a throw-back to the golden age of models.

This is Ling Tang, she is so beautiful to me That's all I've got! Thanks for yours play

Good point. Have we mentioned the air-brushing? Perhaps the models would have been made skinnier in the 80s-90s if they had the technology to whittle them down (digitally). The first thought that came to mind on the first post is that there have always been some freaks on the runway. Well, I guess they're all technically freaks. I mean...not all models were in the same league as Linda and Helena. And now, not all models are in the same camp as Masha Tylena. There are many Prettier ones (Raquel Zimmerman, Doutzen Kroes, Valentina Z. to name a few). But I agree that the ratio has switched. Now, they are mostly awkward waifs, with a few stunners thrown in. What contemporary models do you think could have been popular in the 80s and 90s? Also, do you think they would be prettier if they gained a little weight? Thanks for this interesting discussion.
