Thanks for the video. Shana Zadrick was in that version of the video but she was left out of the regular version.

Those were fun times. I miss the early 90s. :(

A really nice tribute to the Supers, especially Linda: http://www.stylesove...om/superheroes/

Before there was Carrie, Miranda, Charlotte and Samantha there was Linda, Christy and Naomi. They were the girls that everyone wanted to be. They were gorgeous, stylish and on top of their game. This was when models were still on the covers of magazines and Linda was famously quoted as saying “We have this expression, Christy and I: We don’t wake up for less than $10,000 a day.” That was 1990 and “The Trinity” as they were dubbed were 2 years into their reign.

This photo was taken in 1992 backstage at a show in New York. Around this time is when Linda, Christy and Naomi along with 7 other “Supermodels” donned white mens shirts and white jeans for Vogue’s “100th Anniversary Special.” (April, 1992)

A few months later, in September 1992, Linda appeared on the cover of Harper’s Bazaar pushing up the R. This marked the beginning of Liz Tilberis’ Bazaar and the cover was styled by my father and Tonne Goodman who the new were Co-Fashion Directors. The cover line simply read “Enter the Era of Elegance.”

While the fashion business was having a glory day I was slogging through one of the hardest times of my life. My mother had recently passed away and my father left Keeble, Cavaco, and Duka to join the team at Bazzar. KCD was where I went everyday after school and everyone there was my extended family. Everything that had once felt familiar was no longer. In the final years of the Keeble, Cavaco, and Duka I was my father’s constant companion and therefore became quite close to Linda, Christy and Naomi. They were booked in every show and every campaign, so I saw them quite often. The show seasons right after my mother passed away were the hardest, but they hold some of my best memories.

After a show on West 55th Street “The Trinity” took me to Manolo Blahnik. When the boutique door opened and the 4 of us walked in the entire store stopped in it’s tracks. They tried on shoes and generously asked my opinion. These were the most famous women in the world, other than Madonna (more on that later) and they took me shopping at the shoe store that my mother frequented most often. They collectively transformed a place that held many “mommy memories” into one of my favorite places on Earth. The kindness they showed me that day left an indelible mark on my heart and for that I will be forever grateful.

When my father took me to the Couture shows in Paris, July of 1992, our first stop was the House of Valentino where we ran into Linda who was having her fitting. We had just arrived in Paris that morning, the first time without my mother, and Linda was already taking me under her wing. I spent the rest of the day with her backstage at shows. She kept reminding me that although everything was changing that it would be an exciting new chapter. She was right. I was 15 at the time and continued to be my father’s constant companion. I travelled to Europe with him to the collections every season until I was 21 and was on almost every shoot, those are some of my favorite memories.

To me the term “Supermodel” describes a collection of woman who gave a lost girl guidance and hope when she needed it most. My gratitude knows no bounds.

A really nice tribute to the Supers, especially Linda:

Not only nice but factually correct too, from someone who was actually there when it all unfolded.

Found this in another thread.

with Cindy, Naomi, and Giorgio Armani
