There can be no denial that she has a presence and one can forgive her anything else that might not be perfect(as her walk, maybe the only imperfection she has). Again, you are totally right. And you are a very, very, very lucky guy to have met her so many times and have selfies with her...i could have never done that, cause i saw her only twice during Paris fashion week and she was surrounded by bodyguards and paparazi, so i could only snap a few images with my camera, which i posted here a few months ago. She is iconic and there is no doubt in it. Her images are wow almost all the time. Her Guess campaign is maybe the best Guess campaign ever! I wish i had started collecting her years ago and not just recently, but i am slowly gathering more and more...maybe in 20 years my collection will be decent😉

I agree with you 100%. And luckily i have that Rolling Stone cover with Claudia in my collection and i am very happy with it! Claudia is an Icon, but so is Linda and Cindy. If Claudia was better on the catwalk, she might have had bigger recognition. But as much as i love her, it is always painful to see her on the runway...out of all big models, she has the worst walk ever...sorry.

I totally agree with you, i am a big fan of Claudia, too and she must have been included, too. Maybe she was even asked to be there, but maybe she did not have the time and ability to participate. We all know who all big models were and Claudia is definitely one of the top 10 ever. I do not like comparisons or lists, charts and other silly competitions. They simply made a documentary about 4 of the big top models. I think there is also a political reason behind choosing them only...they come from USA and Canada and the industry always favored models from these countries. That's obvious. And Gisele also made the cover of Rolling Stone and Vanity Fair...more than once.

Shamefully? By the same logic also Yasmeen, Helena, Karen, Tatjana and a few more were shamefully not included...the documentary was perfect the way it is.

Auuu, so many bad photos of an Icon...funny, but a great find. Thanks

Got my Linda book and i love it. Here are some highlights snapped by me:

Does anyone have these in good quality, because these that are posted above are with very poor quality:(((

Now it is time for her second special i guess

Oh, too bad...i thought she deserves what they did with Anja, Missy, Kasia, Amber, Constance and many other top models who were in the Elle Special with so many pages of them inside. But 20 pages is still a good number.

Every special of Elle with a big model on the cover has many editorials with the model by different photographers and it is many pages, so Gisele will be featured on at least 150 pages or more.

The editorials will be on 242 pages, it is written on the cover.

Do you have the magazine for real or you found the scans online?

This is one of her best campaigns in my opinion. The only thing i do not like is all the people around her, which made it look like the beauty and the beasts...I guess it was impossible to shoot on the streets and have no monsters around...lol...i would have shot the campaign differently, too. It seems what they did was intentional. After all her role was a Hollywood Diva on a walk among fans and it kinda worked. Love all the collages in the ads. Overall one of my favorite campaigns.
