What do you think? Can this one be Gaetane Bibot?

Amanda is like Andrea Zuba, everywhere you look you find photos of her. Some models work a lot even without becoming very famous. image.png.094bf1588c2cd8e9752e5569451fba33.png

I'm old enough that I fondly remember the mail order catalogues from the 70's and 80's.  I'd see the same women over the span of a decade or more and now wonder who they where.  It may not have been glamorous work but it was certainly steady.

Not all can grace covers like VOGUE, Bazaar, etc. And these small jobs had to be done also. Not every one could effort to pay a top model. Such jobs paid also bills. These are all beautiful women and without a big model agency in the back it´s much more hard. But maybe they had a more happier life than others who made it bigger and that´s what it counts in the end, I think.:)

I think the same.my passion for IDs also comes from my great interest in this type of models. image.png.40fd5db81349c7e32a101c6b0ea1171d.png

Yes, I think these girls also made money without all the inconveniences of being famous!

Indeed, even the top models in the 1970s-1980s were paid scale for magazine covers -- the covers primarily padded their portfolio book and enabled their agencies to leverage a higher hourly fee quote.  But catalogs work provided steady, good money even for big-name models such as Carol Alt, Joan Severance, etc.

 

And Catalogs work could be counted on a better working environment in the 1970s-1980s, than say, the more glamorous runway world:

* Less pressure; preparation chaos.

* Some were appalled at the quantity of cocaine, smoking, late-night partying, diet pills (and pressure to use) among fellow models, designers, photographers, and others in the industry.

* Sexual harassment was commonplace.

It's nice when you read about a model that eventually got a regular (more normal?) career, got married, had kids, STAYED married (and happily so), and generally had a happy and satisfying life.  It wasn't all bad I guess.

Does anyone know the name of this beautiful model from the 1988 Sears Spring Summer Catalog? I refer to the "main" model, not the models in the smaller images on the bottom left 🥰
