Thanks, here's another Kenzo ad from 1985. model: Kim Williams

Bravo! The best place for her image to be.

^Gracias Tito por todas las fotos. Que linda se ve la Linda. She looks really beautiful. And I absolutely love her hairstyle. I think one of those pictures is going to be my next avatar.

Realistically, does it matter if young people assume that Naomi or Kate Moss were the top models of the 90s based off the modeling work that the two of them are doing NOWADAYS? It's just sheer ignorance, and it's up those young people to inform themselves on how things actually happened in the 90s. The information is out there. In all honesty, I think Naomi's career overall owes a great deal to the fact that her name was promoted as part of "The Trinity" along with Linda & Christy. Had Naomi tried to establish a big career for herself all on her own, I don't think it would've happened. Not to mention that she's too troubled, too much of an unstable personality. And yes, some people bring up Linda's use of Botox as a way to take a swipe at her. When someone makes a comment like, "She can't emote anymore", all you have to do is read between the lines and realize that what they're really saying is, "I'm frustrated because *insert model's name here* didn't get that particular assignment but Linda did." Now, regarding the idea of putting multiple models on the cover of a magazine such as VI, I'd much rather see just the supers without any younger models included (a la the December 2011 issue of Harper's Bazaar UK). If anyone deserves a VI cover anytime soon, it's Helena Christensen.

Great pictures, Aramis & Fender. Love the picture of Karla.

Yes, Cindy started modeling in the mid 80s. Participated in a modeling contest alongside Stephanie Seymour (the "Look of the Year" contest) sometime in either 1983 or 84. Neither one of them won though. Paulina started modeling in the early 80s. The earliest modeling picture I've ever seen of her is from 1981.

^My pleasure. She had the best runway walk ever. "Yasmeen Ghauri" Flashback WARNING: NUDITY [media=]http://youtu.be/83ePMshcRyU

My issue with the whole older+newer models thing is that the older models always seem to be just a token. There'll be like 4 or 5 newer models with an older model thrown into the mix: Linda, or Eva, Naomi, Kristen, Helena, etc. The Roberto Cavalli S/S 2012 campaign comes to mind. The whole thing looked just plain silly. Anyway, I love the way Linda looks in those pictures with Karl. Nice to see her smiling again. And you can tell she's wearing Chanel.

October 1995: Michelle Hicks April 1998: Might it be Angela Lindvall?

^I'm happy for Linda, but I hate it when they mix older models with models from today. It's so absurd.
