Serious question here.  Was Yasmeen the sexiest model ever?  I'm no talking most beautiful or overall greatst (though she could be), just the sexiest. Who do you think her rivals for that title would be?   Cindy would be one, I suppose. Not many others, IMO.

 

None.

She had a rare combination of an amazing figure and a very seductive way of walking (they called her The Panther). No one else was like that. So in terms of overall sexiness, I think probably only Stephanie Seymour could come close.

Yasmeen Ghauri was the greatest supermodel of the last twenty or thirty years for a number of reasons. Yes, there were other girls from that era who were exceptionally beautiful but it takes more than that. Yasmeen had an aura of other-worldliness, a sense that you were seeing a beauty that in a by-gone age, men would have invaded a country for. Classical and timeless.

In addition, her no-nonsense, pragmatic attitude towards modelling was at odds with many others from that time. She gave everything but understood the fleeting, transient nature of beauty and bowed out when she thought her time was done. She understood how fickle the world of fashion is and used it to her own ends.

The fact that she has stayed out of the limelight and the celebrity circus in the years since she retired from modelling only makes her greater in my opinion.

Guess she fell down in the first one, unless having models on their hands and knees was part of the show.    Love how she's laughing about it.

Found this in Daniela's topic on TFS.  A different look for her - never saw the "exotic" Yasmeen in a baseball jacket before!
