Here's another 1980's gem @RocketQueen @missparker7

 

Creation NewLook - 1988 (not sure if that's the correct name of the brand)

Models: Karen (in red & white) & ? - though they look familiar

Sorry the images are cropped but that's not by me. That's how the hard copies came to me.

 

Monoprix is the brand

Does anyone recognise which show & season these are from? @ArianaVSCouture

The second one really looks familiar, but I cannot remember. No idea about first one, but from now on I'll be doing some detective work to find it out.

Karen Mulder - Runway Mix Part 2:

Beautiful mix of Karen, thanks @ArianaVSCouture  I love how she looked from A/W 92/93 to S/S 93. That's my favourite runway period of her. Where I believe she was at her most stunning.

1992 was my favourite year in fashion. So many iconic collections and the girls looked like Goddesses. A triumph of Supermodel era!

@ArianaVSCouture Did you know there were two shows of this season? Outfits & models all the same, but I noticed many differences. Eg: Nadja's hairstyles are different and Helena & Yasmeen swapped dresses.  I'm just curious why there would be two shows. (first show has original music; second show has replaced music due to copyright)

I do have a feeling he did two shows of this collection. Maybe Gianni was a perfectionist and didn't like the way the first one did go. I have noticed small differences besides the ones you have mentioned, such as different floor pattern, the lightning, Brandi bumping into Shalom and Kate Moss's straps positions on her black dress. In a second video the girls are waiting for Gianni at the end of the catwalk and he emerges with Karen and Nadja by his side, but in a first one it's Karen and Helena with him. I think the same thing happened with his Spring 95 Couture collection because I was trying to find the pictures of Karen in long beige and white satin strapless evening dresssplit as it was seen in a video, but in my archives the exact same dress is worn by Kristen Mcmenamy on a runway:

I'll see if I can find a pic of Karen in that dress in my collection. I was able to obtain an ex fans extensive Karen Mulder collection so I've got lots of runway images. I've even got some polaroids taken at fittings.

Gianni Versace and different other designer like Thierry Mugler etc did 2 shows back to back especially couture because the venues like the Ritz in Paris was not as big there was the first show with celebrity guest and press in attendance and a second show for buying customers and buyers for shops

Found one @ArianaVSCouture Not on the runway but after the show in that dress.

He probably was showing the collection at different city/country some designers do that, i noticed several times where i look at runway pics from my magazines and when i look for the pics online i find the models at the show are different from what i saw
