Anna Bayle is better known for her walk. If I remember correctly (from an old newspaper article), even Jay Alexander, who trains models how to walk, admires her way of walking.

Jay Alexander? Which Episode?

 

[Mr-Dale]

Renamed and moved to the regular Supporting Cast section

Jay Alexander? Which Episode?

Not an episode. Jay Alexander said it in a newspaper article. Also, he doesn't only do ANTM, he is an actual runway coach.

 

[Lil_Flip246]

Can you please post the newspaper article?

Melanie is like more of a Beauty Queen oh I love her so much, she's a character... Very funny!

Anna was actually more famous in Europe than in America, where she now lives (1 Fifth Avenue, the building made famous by the legendary photographer Bill King). She ruled the European runways the same time Pat Cleveland, Jerry Hall, Iman, Dalma and Kirat etc did. She only became more visible in the NY runways during the early 90s when Christy, Linda, Naomi, Cindy etc were the biggest names in modelling.

Melanie, for all her fabulousness and her unmistakable beauty, can not hold a candle to Anna's achievements as a model. I still remember seeing Anna in the NY shows under the tents in Bryant Park in the early 90s when she was well in her lates 30s or early 40s. Neither Melanie or Bessie walked in the NY shows.

...also Anna Bayle has been featured alot on W-- when it was newspaper style publication.

it is true that (Miss) Jay Alexander among others emulate Anna's famous walk till this day.

and true to fact Anna Bayle is THE first asian supermodel who made the crossover and is highly regarded in the fashion industry. She is deemed an Fashion Icon along side, Christy, Linda, Claudia, Elle, Federique, Naomi, Kate...
