Heavily, but exquisitely made-up: Very old-school Victoria's Secret (judging by the background): Very young, very 80's:

I've always wondered if this shot was a fake. Does anyone know what show this was?

The first one I knew by name? Probably Cheryl Tiegs, I remember her lovely fishnet maillot nippage shot causing a sensation. The first model I really got into was Paulina Porizkova - such a beauty. Then a little later, Cindy Crawford, who I hated at first, after titanic struggle, displaced Paulina in my affections. And I became literally obsessed with Cindy, remaining so to some extent even to this day. The only other ones that qualified for obsession status were probably Yasmeen Ghauri and Rebecca Romijn. But not to the Cindy level.

I've read that Cindy's inseam was 35". True? That would give her an inseam-to-total-height ratio of 51%, which fits her general legginess. I don't know why model's inseams aren't quoted along with their height and measurements, as legginess is such a big factor in a model's appeal.

She was about 16 then. Is it just me, or does it seem like the "sexier" shots that showed off her body etc. appear more in non-US magazines rather than US ones, when she was that age?

Hi all. Andreea has already been posting a lot of pics from this, but in case you hadn't heard, MTV has reissued all the old House of Style episodes, with Cindy as hostess of course.. http://style.mtv.com/house-of-style/collection/ Just imagine being interviewed by The Most Beautiful Woman in the World. Who'd pay attention to what you said?

Wow - I've never seen these. Beautiful! She'd have been just 19 years old at the time.

No idea, but her face certainly appealed to me too!

A little eye candy always makes online training courses easier to take: Of course, she's not actually an "employee", except of a modeling or casting agency.

Pics like this one are the reason I thought she was the most beautiful Victoria's Secret model back then. Thanks Fuzzy!

Yup, here's some video. Cindy is definitely herself - poised and confident, just not the right hairstyle yet. She'd have been what, 16, 17? Yikes. Amazed by what a teeny tiny little-girl voice Stephanie has, but I'm not sure I've ever heard her talk. Lisa Hollenbeck won that year. Not sure what kind of career she had; I've barely heard of her I think. [media=]

Lovely girl. Fascinating, magnetic. But a minx. Minx, minx, minx.

Cindy is usually thought of as 90's model, but wasn't she an 80's model too? First Vogue cover in '86, practically a household name by '87/'88, when Reagan was still in office. Paulina on the other hand, is more 80's than '90's. SI cover in '84, etc.

Mid-90's to early 00's were the best years for VS. The pics they had back then would make a nice coffee-table book, they were so great.

Always loved her. Check out the Vintage Victoria's Secret thread. There's a fair amount of her there. She did a lot of VS in the early 90s. Though never any lingerie, regrettably. Could never see why. I always liked her too; she reminds me of a friend of mine.

We have no idea how hard it is to walk with heels, period.

Rebecca, catching sight of herself in a mirror, and suddenly overwhelmed by her own beauty. Longing for an identical twin.

Surely the most exquisite wet T-shirt picture ever taken: Boobs as perfect as the face.

I'd never heard of this woman before stumbling across these pictures of her a couple of days ago, and was stunned by how beautiful she looked, and how beautiful the dress was. Those cups on it- it's amazing. Thanks for the great scans. Was going to post a few of these, but your versions are better.

Post whatever you've got and I'll be happy to check it over myself. Also and especially, the exquisite cat-eyed Jill Goodacre, and the yummy-yummy-yummy Heather Stewart-Whyte - my two favorites.. There's another completely obscure VS model I loved - Anja Kneller. Your scan:

I simply could not agree more, Lyle. The personality she projected in her photos was just so appealing. The most piquant of Victoria's Secret beauties, and also the most beautiful brunette. It is not just a shame, but a sin that she is not more widely known.

Capt. Bob, thank you again for doing the Lord's work in scanning all these superbeauties for us. By any chance, do you have a scan of Lorri Bagley with her hair big and somewhat poufy, wearing a yellow bra and matching panties which are kind of triangle-shaped and high-cut, hands resting on the front of her thighs? It's hands-down my favorite shot of her.

1988 was her scorching Herb RItts Playboy shoot, mmm. I think she was at her most beautiful during the earlier, happier years with Gere, when she was utterly radiant and impossibly beautiful - the Cindy Crawford of Cindy Crawford, if that makes any sense. She was The Most Beautiful Woman in the World back then. Anyone who has another candidate in mind will have to name names and post proof.
