brazilianaffair Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 who's your favorite out of the 5 original supers? Quote
Stamoholic Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Woot! First vote! I love Claudia immensly and Cindy is my icon, but I had to vote for Linda because she was the first woman, when I was a kid, I remember looking at and knowing what beauty was. Quote
michelabella Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 absolutely love em all, SUPERMODELS! but Cindy is my all time fav model,beauty icon, anything and everything she is the ultimate Supermodel to me, love her immensely to this day I have never seen a more beautiful woman/face Quote
frenchkiki Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I voted for Cindy because I was loving her so much As well as Claudia :heart: But I regret it now because Christy the divine has no vote... Quote
happycanadian2 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 well... i love them ALL, really. and they're all soooooo fabulous and SO good at what they do ...but my vote goes for Naomi, because she really lives and breathes the whole fashion world. even still, to this day. she's an ICON, in the best sense of the word. and she's entirely outrageous, which is always entertaining. plus, she's impossibly versatile, is probably the most photographed woman ever, and just so supremely beautiful. and that WALK.

Layla90 Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Wow, this photograph of Linda in the first post is so beautiful :shock:My fav from these 5 is Christy. Quote
Ophelia_Immortal Posted February 17, 2009 Posted February 17, 2009 Christy but Naomi comes at a close second =) Quote
Qball Posted February 20, 2009 Posted February 20, 2009 Cindy, no doubt. I've always found her extremely sexy. Quote
to_the_stars Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 My fave is Christy Turlington But wasn't Tatiana Patitz also one of them? Quote
brazilianaffair Posted February 21, 2009 Author Posted February 21, 2009 i love Tatjana very much, and i know she was part of the original 5 before Claudia stepped in and replaced her, but i guess it was all because Tatjana was way too shy & reserved, and didn't allow her private life to become public....she soon started focusing more on her acting career than her modelling one, and this worked against her as a fashion model at the time...it happened in a time when you had Naomi who got engaged with DeNiro, Tyson, DiCaprio and so on, Linda with french soccer player Fabien Barthez, Christy & Cindy respectively with Hollywood actors Christian Slater & Richard Gere, Tatjana was a little out of place already...until there comes Claudia with her Brigitte Bardot"esque" looks, dating internationally known magician Copperfield and being also of the same nationality as Tatjana, it was easy to replace her in the "big 5" lineup...Gianni Versace, the real creator of the "supermodels", loved Claudia and used her in so many of his runway shows, but he rarely used Tatjana....even though Claudia is a bit younger and started her career later than Tatjana, it's pretty safe to say she left the bigger impact in fashion world out of the 2....Claudia still holds the record for being the model who appeared on more fashion magazines covers (Giselle Bunchen has the record for more covers in general, not only fashion ones), and if i'm not wrong, she broke Christy's record for the biggest cosmetic contract....younger generations still know who Claudia Schiffer is, it's not always the same with Tatjana Patitz, that's why everybody in the business, when talking about the "big 5", think of Cindy, Linda, Naomi, Christy & Claudia Quote
Joe > Average Posted February 21, 2009 Posted February 21, 2009 The more I learn about them the more I'm amazed, they are all amazing models , seemingly at ease at all phases (commercial and high fashion). But I voted for Naomi . She's one of my top middle-aged woman crushes . Quote
