This is Vanessa Walther from Hamburg.

I totally hear you and see it the same way like you do. I guess those guys in Helsinki that see her from time to time rather expect someone „hipper“ when coming from a Finnish „fashion dynasty“ and after working in the fashion industry for so long. I guess it is less related to measurements or age generally.

Hi Hi! The show girl is definitely not Honey Labrador. I have met Honey several times personally and she looks far more Asian and rather „cute“ - not as tough as that show model. No clue who the show girl is though. To me she looks like having rather an Arab background and not half European-American and half Chinese which Honey does have.

Fun fact - Finnish singer Kikka wearing a piece of the „Nita Morphosis“-collection that Nita designed for Micmac 😁 facebook.com

LOVE!😍

I just looked it up. It was in 85 though. She was the only one in pink (with black asymmetrical stripes). Great and a long time before the robot walk 😊

🤣🤣🤣 Sorry! Totally misunderstood…🤣🤣🤣 And btw, the Galliano model is not Buswell but Jolyn Spek instead!😜

I made a mistake! It’s Jolyn Spek 😘

Unfortunately not, me dear :( I don’t know her as well :(

2 more from Kari > Photo Kari Rainer Pulkkinen 1983 + 1989 JOKA Journalistinen kuva-arkisto From a Finnish forum in Dec.22 discussing Finnish vintage models: „-Nita Salovaara asuu Helsingissä. On tätimäistynyt. Tyttärensäkin teki jonkin aikaa mallintöitä. -En menis ihan Nita Salovaaraa kaunottareksi sanomaan, sen verran muistan kuitenkin vanhoja kuvia nähneeni. Mic mac oli ajan hermolla, oma farkkumerkki ja liike. -Kyllä Nita oli nuorena huippukaunotar. Bellazon.com sivulta löytyy upeita kuvia Nitan malliajoilta. On nykyisin tosi tätimäistynyt eikä millään uskoisi samaksi ihmiseksi. Näkee Helsingissä useinkin. -Olivat upeita kaunottaria, Salovaaran suku omisti Mic Macin.” translates into: „-Nita Salovaara lives in Helsinki. She has become an „aunt“. Her daughter also did modeling for a while. -I wouldn't exactly call Nita Salovaara a beauty, but that's what I remember seeing from old pictures. Mic mac was on trend, with its own jeans brand and store. -Yes, Nita was a top beauty when she was young. You can find great pictures from Nita's modeling days on Bellazon.com. She's really aunt-like these days and you wouldn't believe she's the same person. I see her often in Helsinki. -They were beautiful beauties, the Salovaara family owned Mic Mac.” Interesting read about MicMac on Wikipedia. The store was obviously founded by Nita‘s mother > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mic_Mac_(brand)

Caroline Clery has great legs, was active at that time and was always based out of Paris. It’s possibly her then ;) That is Michele Rozmarin (Elite incorrectly presented her first name after the family name….) (my photo)

Micki is the 1st generation of Israeli topmodels such as Michaela Bercu as well. Here 2025 pictures of lovely Micki: (elinorshahar.com)

Renay Arbour

That is the lovely Ivelin Giro. (my scan)

Hi! This is neither Tia nor Emma Blocksage (massive hole in her chin) but Michelle Buswell instead 😘

No unfortunately not Claudia as well 😟

Super! Well done 👍 👍🤩

I totally understand what you mean but that is not her as well > Your above model is the same model as by user fender though.

Close but unfortunately not her :( Ines also still looked younger and less ladylike in 92, has brown eyes and has a beauty mark on her upper lip.

I think it is maybe related to the fact that doing Mädchen jobs was not very prestigious and often real models (not the Munich based teenagers that they usually streetcast) didn’t wanted to be associated with the magazine with their names. As a result model names were sometimes changed. Same goes for photographers whose names were changed as well. Photographer Cees van Gelderen for example shot a lot for Journal für die Frau magazine under different aliases as he was usually rather on an Elle level and didn’t want to harm his career but wanted to take the jobs with him 😜

You are right! Looks very much like Angelika Oedekoven!

😆 Ok you beat me! 😁 I remember her being a very nice and sweet person. And she was a real beauty when standing in front of you and was not just very photogenic.

Hm Vanessa had long hair in 91 and cut it chinlength in 92. The face is close but I am not sure it’s her and I met Vanessa 2-3 times in the early 90s. My first thought was actually Amanda Lewis who had chinlength in 91 and cut it short in 92 like on the Elle pic. Confusing…..🤣 Sarah van Calck again 😘
