^Chief, if that turns out to be true, that would just be absolutely horrible! Enough to make me livid! It's so weird because there were so many reports that three covers were to be released. Now I'm wondering if its the export cover.

^Thank you!! :wub2:

^Thank you! And speaking of Harper's Bazaar, I don't know anyone who has actually seen Linda's cover on the newsstands. Only Lady Gaga's cover seems to be available. Also, I'm only seeing Gaga's cover and subscriber cover with Audrey Hepburn's granddaughter available on Ebay. Really strange! I hope someone finds a copy soon.

^ I couldn't figure out how to do it so I just took Screenshot...

Thanks brazilianaffair! I would love to see Linda back on the catwalk again!

^I totally agree with you; Gisele is too big to share a cover unless it's with a male star or another super. Gisele is at an interesting crossroads, and I do believe she is the only model on the U.S. market scene that would be a big seller to both the younger and older fashion crowd.

^True about a solo cover. I wasn't expecting Vogue to go the multi-model route again. Maybe they think none of the newer models can sell on a solo cover? In any case, I'm still pulling for a U.S. Vogue solo cover with Gisele!

I'm still holding out for Gisele on the September issue of Vogue USA . Honestly, she's the only the one that makes sense to me!

brazilianaffair, that is a very difficult question for me. Linda has had so many different looks -- and we're talking EXTREME changes over the years that I can't choose just one. I do love your favorite, it reminds me of Ava Gardner from the 50s. But if I had to choose just one, I would have to say that I love my current Bellazon avatar pic!

^ :wub2:

Sorry, poor memory...I must be getting old!!

I had completely forgotten she was with Leonardo! Has Vogue USA come out yet -- the September edition? If not, why not Gisele????

I saw that yesterday and I was very happy! Honestly, I think Helene contributed so much to the supermodel era and was so great on the catwalk! :wub2:

^Hi Mani! Welcome!! It's always a pleasure to meet another fan of La Linda. I just took a quick look at your new fan site and I very impressed with the quality. Congratulations on such a great job. Linda sites have come and gone over the years and I think the greatest challenge is getting the word out. Most of her fans are older and don't really participate in social media or fan sites but if you can get their attention, they're loyal. For example, right now, the most popular Linda site is this one: http://lalinda-evangelista.tumblr.com -- the webmaster of this site has been really good about posting content on a regular basis and getting people to notice the site. But yours is much more polished and refined and that in itself is attractive. LEvangelista.net is still out there but they have a been a in a slump for a few years now but they plan to re-open with a new and improved site this Fall. There's also Rado's site: http://www.radolgc.com/linda/ I should also state that Linda has always been around and in recent years, at a much slower pace but she's recently come back with a bang! And like spiral mentioned, it's her 30th anniversary in the business. And seemingly, all the stars are aligned right now for Linda; her 30th anniversary in the business, she turns 50 next year, and Vogue Italia will be celebrating its 50th year this Fall (I'm guessing either the September or October edition of the magazine). So your site is debuting at a very good time where Linda will also be attracting new fans. I wish you all the best! (Y) Doosia, this great! Thank you! I often wonder if Linda and Christy would ever reunite again for an editorial. :neo2: I agree, although, I think Vogue Italia's 50th anniversary edition will feature a multi-model cover with some of Steven Meisel's faves through the ages. And it would be devine if Veruschka made an appearance, too!

Gorgeous!! :wub2:

Gisele is rocking that Stuart Weitzman ad!! :wub2: Thanks, michelabella!

There was an interview with Franco Sozzani in today's Wall Street Journal and it mentions that this Fall is Vogue Italia's 50th anniversary, which makes me think that either the September or October issue will be a special edition. I wouldn't be surprised if Gisele takes part in this!

^spiral, That is such a really nice quote from Franca Sozzani! I am still stunned when I look at those editorials when Linda transformed into Katherine Hepburn and Sophia Loren! :| Linda kicked a$$ in both of those editorials! :lullaby: But something else that I got out of that article was that they mentioned Vogue Italia will be celebrating its 50th anniversary this Fall. So that means either the September or October issues will be special editions. And I suspect that Linda will a big part of that celebration. Another cover...? Oh, and thanks for posting that 1985 Chanel show. OMG, that is ancient! :shock:

Only two but Gisele looks gorgeous in both pics! Thanks, michelabella!

I think it's great that's she doing yoga/spiritual retreats there! I love Costa Rica!

All Gisele's ads are great, but I'm really love her Intimates! The photography/post-production is the best!

^Is this from Costa Rica, too!

^Great words from Elle! And I couldn't agree more!

^Now THIS is REALLY interesting to me. I didn't know Linda was doing runway all the back to 1986! Wow! Oh...wait! If this is for SS 1986, then she must have walked this show in 1985! Holeeeee!! :| Thanks, spiral! Wow! FAMAMOCA, you're digging up some old stuff! Well, for Linda 1997-98 isn't that old. Thanks! Thank you, Doosia! a bit bigger ersdtyuge5.jpg I can't wait to get my hands on this issue!! I'm still in disbelief that Linda is back on the cover of Harpers Bazaar! Thanks so much, brazillianaffair! Very interesting what Linda said about her hair. The fact that it's as long as it was in 1987 and that she mentioned that she's "wigged" all the time now for photo shoots. Thanks, Tito!

Flashback to 2004 in London: A candid photo from a Mac Viva Glam function! That's none other than Amy Winehouse, before Amy made it to the big leagues in the music world! She's so tiny!
