My fav era was 1967-1969, 1975-1982 and 2002-present. I really think Gemma, Lily, Amanda, Julia and Jeisa (for instance) have that special something that Penelope Tree, Gia, Janice and Twiggy had - and that the 90s models lacked. Something inspiring and mysterious, yet approachable.

I feel exactly the same way! I dislike the "every woman" look of models like Gia and even the models of the 90's. I find models much more interesting if they have something slightly strange and different about them. Large eyes, a long, almost inhuman figure... Not curvy and natural and expected. Runway fashion isn't the real world for most people, I think that models should reflect that sense of imagination, fantasy and unreality. I really do think that these models today are amazing! Their only competitors would have been the equally different icons of the 60's... I really wouldn't want to return to the boredom of the other decades.
