Ì had never heard of Sonja Hulsman! I discoverd fashion only in the end of 2003, so that was after the SS 04 shows Here are her pics at Prada:





Even though I must say I'm not a fan by these pics, why didn't she ever boom like Querelle did?

heres some info about wilhemina behmenburg if you all are interested

Wilhelmina (1940–March 1, 1980) was a supermodel who began with Ford Models and, at the peak of her success, founded her own agency, Wilhelmina Models, in New York City in 1967.
Born Wilhelmina Behmenburg in The Netherlands, she was known professionally as simply "Wilhelmina" or "Willy" to intimates. She moved with her family to Chicago, Illinois, USA, in 1954. She married Bruce Cooper, former executive producer of the Johnny Carson The Tonight Show in 1965.
Eileen Ford was hurt and angry at first when she learned that one of "her own" that she had built and groomed was to become the competition. Internationally known at the time, known for working hard, she knew everyone in the fashion industry. She called top photographers that she had worked with extensively, to share her excitement over her new venture. To her credit, she was able to translate her knowledge of the business, and give new talent a look based on her own personal philosophy of beauty, glamour and elegance. Wilhelmina Models became the other leading model agency with Fords years before Elite and other agencies began.
Cooper was portrayed by Faye Dunaway in the 1998 movie Gia which tells the story of Gia Marie Carangi, a supermodel, who was discoved by Wilhelmina Cooper and later died of AIDS.
She continued to guide the agency into the late 1970s until her premature death from lung cancer at the age of 40 in Greenwich Hospital, Greenwich, Connecticut.
She was a resident of New York City and Cos Cob, Connecticut.

On Sonja: I see her quite often in Dutch magazines. She's done some good editorial work. Here's the Miu Miu campaign she did with Querelle:



And she's on the cover of this month's Avantgarde:

[Mr-Dale]

^ Well isn't that a coincidence I like the cover! Perhaps she'll do some international stuff again?

[Senna]

Yeah I like it too. I don't know about the international work.. She's been modeling for quite some years already but perhaps she'll do a Lara? Who knows!

[style_expert]

^ @ do a lara

well indeed...you never know..I'd love to see it happening

[mikel]

^Yeah I hope so too, I always wondered why she vanished so soon. She did Miu Miu, i-D and German Vogue eds and suddenly she was gone.

And what do you think of Linda Spierings? I love her, she used to be a muse of Azadine Alaia in the 80ties and she was on some Vogue covers, I'll try to find some pictures of her.

Here are some (small) pictures of Linda from fashion-iconography.net

ps. er gaat niks boven groningen!
Translastion: Nothing's better than Groningen!

Hoe kom je daar ineens zo bij? Om de modellen of om de stad zelf...?
Translation: What makes you think that? Because of the models, or because of the city itself?
