Wow!

I wish she and Liya did a spread together somewhere. They are two of the only girls I love now.

Thanks Omi.

What a woman! Iman is what a model is supposed to be; she, too, merits the supermodel title!

Thanks to Sepia & Omifan and the other members for keeping this thread alive & well! Its never a dull day here when I check out this thread..

Regarding the Black Supermodels group photo...

Their names are on the picture...

Gail O'Neill, Karen Alexandar, Shakara, Clara Benjamin, Naomi Campbell, Iman, Kadra, Kara Young, Cynthia Bailey, Tyra Banks, Liya Kebede, Beverly Johnson, Oluchi, Katouche, Adia, Noemie Lenoir

Is this the one where they are all posed against a black/gray background, all wearing black dressed? Featured in a book by Iman?

If so, can somebody re-post it here?

thanks.

From all the African models I like: Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks the most.
Liya Kebede and Noemie Lenoir are beautiful 2, but imo Iman is too old

I have no idea who this model is, but I love the image.

Thanks Sepia--love that shot! So beautiful!

I totally forgot Liya & Noemie were in there (probably because I didnt know who they were when I first saw it)..Hey, where's Alec?

Um, if the picture is supposed to be a tribute to beautiful black women in the industry, then why all the Caucasian-looking weaves? Ah, thinking too much here..

There seems to be an unwritten rule that there can only be one top black model at a time. Right now only Liya is allowed to be in Vogue, before Liya it was Alek, before Alek, it was Kiara.

Of the current black models out there, I like

Antionette Ataro
Liya Kebede
Oluchi Onweagba
Sesillee Lopez
Yasmin Warsame

Is there any more current black models? Not those old school ones that got posted alot.

thats a beautiful pic! i didnt know anoinette ataro had become that big on the fashion scene! I used to see her at the Kenya fashion week sometime back then she just dissappeared

 

[funkalicious]

Ok I dont think Antionette is popular but I saw her during Singapore Fashion Festival and I fell in love.

Emanuela is a newer Black model. I think she's 16 now.

Anyone have a pic of Antionette? Never heard of her.
