Hello, model sleuths! We finally have some confirmation. At first, I asked a few model friends on Facebook who had walked in the same show with her if they remembered her. Everyone recalled her face, but no one could remember her name. They all mentioned that she wasn’t really active in the industry and that they never saw her again in the following seasons. I didn’t want to keep pressing the first photographer I mentioned earlier—who told me her name was Alessandra Gatto—as I didn’t want to seem like I was questioning his credibility. I mean, he was a veteran lensman and he's captured all the shows and knows practically all the models. With no additional information turning up, I decided to dig deeper. I even searched through my model friends’ lists looking for her, but had no luck. Eventually, I did a reverse image search and found the photographer who took these photos. Coincidentally, I already follow him on Instagram, so I sent him the images hoping he might remember and respond. His runway work is featured on Getty Images. At last—confirmation. Her name is indeed Alessandra Gatto. He mentioned that she only did a handful of shows, including some for Yves Saint Laurent, Emanuel Ungaro, and possibly Louis Féraud.

So I sent my photog friend more pics and asked "if those photos were indeed Alessandra" (just to wheedle out more info) and this was his reply: 😂😂😂 yes 😂I will send them to her because she thinks to be unknown ( which I assume meant she thinks she's practically unknown as she didn't work that much. Or that she didn't think anyone would remember.) Will update if there's anything.

This was his reply: "Yes she's the One. It's ok I sent it to her (meaning the photos). She was very talented but she was not in the business. I lost my hardisk. I asked her some pics. Intanto cerca nelle sfilate Ungaro (which translates to; Meanwhile, look at the Ungaro Fashion shows). So. let's wait for updates before making a thread.

She is Valerie Davis. She is a different model in the Carven ad. I have attached a couple of photo of her beside Karl Lagerfeld alongside Marpessa, Anne Bezamat , Kirat & Suzanne Benzi. for his Chloe 1984. FW collection (Pinterest).

Thank you!!! ❤︎

Here are some models from the early 90s-2000s that I would love to get identified. Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks! PS: I think model #1 & #5 are the same woman Model #2 & #6 are the same. Someone from my circle ID'd her as Nina. For model #4, I asked a runaway photographer, an FB friend who knew 90% of the girls that time and he told me her name is Alessandra Gatto. He told me that she wasn't really in the business that is probably why we seldom see her on the runways. I asked a model friend who was modeling that time and she echoed the same. She said she remembered her but she couldn't recall the name. Only that she didn't really do the runway stuff that often as my friend did. My friend said that this model came into the scene towards the end of her career so they didn't really get acquainted and also that this model didn't do all the shows. Googling didn't help. I wanted to find out if there is anyone here who could confirm. Been dying to know here name.

This is another photo I found of the same model from the same show of Yves Sair cpt Laurent Haute Couture Fall-Winter 1983-84. I also attached a photo of Angela Wilde for Thierry Mugler FW 1986 for comparison. Source: Pinterest.com

The forehead of the model in question is wider than Lorelie's, i think? Angela Wilde did an ad for Yves Saint Laurent's perfume ad in 1983, photographed by David Seidner. Source: icp.org/davidseidnerarchive

I was actually guessing by the photograph, but them I have to say I haven't really seen her walk for Yves Saint Laurent Haute Couture. I usually see her in Mugler & Montana.

Hello guys. Newbie here. A self-confessed model fan. It's 24th of December. A few hours short before the Eve. Merry Christmas, everyone! Need help in identifying a model from Valentino Collections from 1992. Screenshots from YT Fashion Channel. The black & white photo is a screenshot from Getty images. Does anyone know her name? Any reply would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
