He told me that she wasn't really in the business that is probably why we seldom see her on the runways. I asked a model friend who was modeling that time and she echoed the same. She said she remembered her but she couldn't recall the name. Only that she didn't really do the runway stuff that often as my friend did. My friend said that this model came into the scene towards the end of her career so they didn't really get acquainted and also that this model didn't do all the shows. Googling didn't help. I wanted to find out if there is anyone here who could confirm. Been dying to know here name.Thank you so much for the information! As @parisienne mentioned (thank you for tagging me! ), we've been looking for her name for a long time, and finding it seemed hopeless. Thanks God you stopped by!

The name is Italian bu no trace of her in Italy as tv personality, actress or anything else. I only found one visual artist who seems too young though. Could our new friend @liliqouis_moon possibly be able to get some more information? In any case, we should definitely open a new thread.

He's a little old now so his memory might not be as sharp. He said he sent the photo to Alessandra. Let's see what he says. I'd love to know as well!

By the way, her presence on the runways was quite extensive, there are photos of her with Mila Schon dating back to the second part of the 80s. Perhaps less active in prints.

I asked her some pics. Intanto cerca nelle sfilate Ungaro (which translates to; Meanwhile, look at the Ungaro Fashion shows).So. let's wait for updates before making a thread.

So I sent my photog friend more pics and asked "if those photos were indeed Alessandra" (just to wheedle out more info) and this was his reply:😂😂😂 yes 😂I will send them to her because she thinks to be unknown ( which I assume meant she thinks she's practically unknown as she didn't work that much. Or that she didn't think anyone would remember.)Will update if there's anything.
