I don't know if it was posted, so I'll post anyway

It's from andreablanchblog.com

Last week, I received an e-mail from a fan of Gia’s who wanted to*buy a photo of her taken in the 1980′s. During the negotiation I spoke with*Frances Grill, owner of Click modeling agency, who advises me from time to time. *Fran asked if I have this photo in my portfolio book; and when I said no, Fran suggested it should be. *Since my current work revolves around beauty, I find it a bit inappropriate for my book, even though Fran thinks it is an important image which transcends fashion. *Nevertheless, I adored Gia and wanted to share it, so Gia and*the image wouldn’t be forgotten.

As a model and a person, Gia was special. Working with her*was unpredictable, challenging, and dynamic — she was sensual, creative, smart, and*gifted with a rare sensitivity. Gia was a gem in a business with many stones. I*feel privileged and grateful to have collaborated with her so many times — she gave me so*many wonderful shots. *I truly miss her.

Oh, I love the old Versace ad campaigns - the ones with all the top girls just climbing over the men. LOVE! So many great people from that era, Gia, Way Bandy, Chris Von Wagenheim, Helmut Newton, etc. are now gone.

Gia really was amazing. Easily one the best bodies in the business. It's sad that a lot of fashion industry people didn't want to talk about her and tried to minimize her impact on that era after she died. I don't think she was totally representative of that time **EDITED**. She seemed fairly damaged from the get-go and likely would have led a messed up life no matter what profession she chose.

It's been a while since I've found any "new" images of her, if I had, I would have posted it today, 26 years after she died.

Seeing your scans, Justaguy, in such HQ, and so large, it's as if seeing the photos for the very first time. Amazing, truly, thank you!

Hey guys I found this on YouTube, I've actually never posted a vid before. I had never really seen Gia move in front of the camera except for the brief clips they showed in one of her interviews on her addiction. This appears to be a earlier shoot for a Cosmo cover and they are documenting Scavullo's work, in which Gia is the current subject.
