Agyness Deyn, Chanel Iman, Jourdan Dunn, Gisele Bundchen, Doutzen Kroes, Lily Cole, Daisy Lowe, Kate Moss, Natalia Vodianova, Daria Werbowy, Irina Lazreneau, Liya Kebede, Lily Donaldson…………… I think you catch my drift at least I hope you do.
All the names above belong to prominent models, I think it is fair to say that the era of the supermodel is well and truly over. This post is going to be a bit of a history lesson, an incey wincey homage to the supermodels of the past.
This is by no means an exhaustive list.
One thing I am sure you will notice is how much time has been kind to them. No sags, lumps, lines, creases or wrinkles. I am happy they still look beautiful but also sad they look beautiful because it is not fair, GEEZ!
Strictly, Miss Harlow is not a supermodel of the past, she is still working. She is very much the darling of the designers Viktor and Rolf. She is also a firm favourite of the label Chloe. This picture is pretty recent and guess what she is 38.
This stunner – Miss Valletta is best friends with the model above Miss Harlow. Valletta left the industry (on a high) for acting. You can see her in the movies Hitch and erm……..Transporter 2. Nonetheless she still dabbles on the catwalk, particularly for Stella McCartney. She is also in her late 30’s and has kids. Envy.
Yasmin LeBon’s last name means ‘the good’ in French, which couldn’t be more appropriate. She was a pretty fierce model and has done the most Elle front covers in history.
No matter what people write about her in the press, no matter how many people she attacks, no matter how many chemical substances she consumes she still gets lucrative campaigns – namely D&G, Louis Vuitton, ahem Tesco, Pinko.
