Happy Birthday Gia.

Amazing how different she looked in so many shoots, beautiful in all of them.

I don't know which shoot/magazine the above image is from, it's one of my favourites though.

She was so gorgeous & talented!!
She is an icon of the 70s / 80s fashion world, and always will be.

I worked with her quite a bit and considered her a friend. Our modeling heydays coincide. We started our careers around the same time and we were initially with the same agency. She was a lot fun. It feels like just yesterday. My how time flies.

You have to buy them to see them in HQ. Some higher quality than others.

I dunno about you guys but I'm definitely saving up for one!

Too bad the site is no longer available.

If what I read was correct ( and that reading is aggregate from multiple articles) , this was a short notice , press only showing in 1979. By today’s standards might even be considered a Resort. Not much of a location . Lol.)

Yes it is black and white. Portable phones were the size of your car in 1979.

If I’m not wrong they are unpublished photos taken by Andrea Blanch. The first one is a known outtake not published. There are sever color and black and white versions of that fire place and different outfits as well , I suspect but cannot confirm it is an outtake unpublished , I have not seen it in the editorials anywhere , but could be wrong.
