A Tribute to the 90s Supermodels

[hipswing]

its really sad, this is a really tough business so critical even of supermodels you are constantly judged on your looks, when looks come in and out you have to adapt, you need to be so strong to not let it get to you but poor eva got sucked in by the fickle people in fashion biz and lost her curves to fit in, its so dangerous the game these people are playing, why should she change herself for them?!

It's especially dangerous b/c most of the girls are so young. However, Eva is still luckier than many other girls that get sucked in to the business. And I also say minority girls should be used more or girls built like the Supers Cindy,Claudia,Naomi,Helena,etc. But I can only look at Gemma,Kate and the lookalikes but for a short minute b/c I really don't think that is 'the look' either.

I prefer this look not Tyra, but not Kate either it's in between. Naomi,Linda & Carla for Vogue(1994) photographed by Demarchelier

Eveyone has favs and all models as well as people have flaws(hipswing,texastess,oolie coco). O.C Why did you single out the Trinity? You know they are my favs. They are such great models, that they pulled off their flaws especially. And as a huge fan of Omi I will be the first to tell you she isn't perfect and I find it hilarious that you said that. The only girls that are in that vain-so plain that it bores is the VS girls like Tyra,Heidi,etc IMO.

Anyway, Let's keep this damn thing classy people!

How can you say I singled out The Trinity? If you read the post you'd see that I also spoke of Helena, Claudia and Stephanie. That's 6 models - honestly, the only 6 that I thought were worth mentioning about 90's models and 6 of the models that get the most posts in this thread. I thought we were discussing the flaws of ALL models in a friendly manner - you CAN'T take this stuff personally.

I don't particularly like the Trinity - I've said over and over again that I prefer Stephanie/Helena/Eva, but I have no problem saying that every single one of these models is extraordnarily beautiful if you read my post.

It's not picking on anyone - I discussed the flaws of 6 different models equally, two of which I REALLY love.

Plus you have to understand these are my personal opinions - everyone has them and we will all disagree. We have to understand that and realize that if we are going to be friendly with one another.

I was joking do you see it? But their name's stand out b/c of how they were put and spaced apart. So I was just trying to defuse some things that were said,including myself. I didn't want it to turn into a bash. It goes beyond what you said read my posts. BTW how could I say you were picking on them when I discussed their flaws first and than said I didn't find Omi perfect? And there my favorites, so why would I go after you? The others aren't complaining and I said more stuff directed to them. I believe they see as a explained why I said what I said. Or you can just read the posts by all and see it was getting a little negative.

Claudia was my first favorite model...she got me to appreciate models more and though I'm more of a Stephanie Seymour fan now, I can't deny her gorgeous Teutonic looks..

She has this girlish charm that has never faded

Thank you for the beautiful pictures, Hard Core Dior!

Yes it is just opinions. But lets be more tactful. For example it sounds like you are calling her trash as a person and I'm sure(or at least hope) that's not what you mean. In your eyes she wasn't as special as her fellow Elite Supers and that's okay. BTW the Elite Supers need more than a few bad reviews to overshadow what they have done, they will last as they have been for so long, so let's not get so personal(it will take alot to get rid of the Elites especially Cindy,Christy,Naomi & Linda). They have proven themselves. BTW this essay(sorry I had to do it) isn't just about whats been said on this thread recently. I've seen some ridiculous hate & jealousy and I'm hear to say get used to the Supers(especially the Elites) b/c they are going to be around.

OK I'm sorry, I just mean that I don't think she was a very good model and find her uninspiring in her pics. I don't see why she was considered one of the elites when you hold her up to the rest of the supers is all.

See that's way better, I knew what you meant & I know you mean well. BTW it's was just the whole 'trash' thing that got some people off.
