My God, this is just coming out now!!?? Sad..I wonder why she died and how old she was...

i've read somewhere that she died because she had some alcohol problem, she was about 50 years old or something like that... very young.

Gia's editorial work was breathtaking. I guess it's the legend [where her story reads more like a 'not-to-do'] that makes her stand out from alot the names listed, even more so because she is slightly before my time.

Her & Von Wangenheim professionally must have been something like soulmates. Artistically he was definitely on the fringes, was he arguably the most daring & risque photographer back in those times? And of course Gia, the flawed & rebellious angel of the industry. RIP x 2.

I'd guess most of the people here are revisiting history that they weren't part of themselves And I guess we can never know if it's because of her story or because of her photographs that Gia is the most fascinating of them all.

I know there are some models I have encountered in my fashion history research that I would love to know more about. People who simply have to have lived the most fascinating lives...it's sort of hard to find out though.

 

[Vivian Darkbloom]

It's hard to find images and editorials from the 70s. I love Gia and Janice and I don't know much about the other girls at the time but I'd really love to see more.

Have you had a look in the vintage magazines forum? SusanSuperstar and Ivana have posted a lot there. Especially Susan has contributed to Gia's legacy by showing a lot of her work there....

'About Face' to Premiere at Sundance Film Festival
By Sharon Edelson


CATWALK CHRONICLES: By now, most people know that modeling as a glamorous career is more of a myth than reality. “About Face,” a documentary, portrays a group of Seventies- and Eighties-era models as survivors, blessed with beauty, yet condemned by society’s less-than-tolerant view of aging and its relentless celebration of youth. Timothy Greenfield-Sanders, who first photographed the models for a group portrait for Vanity Fair, wanted to delve deeper into their stories. Carol Alt, Marisa Berenson, Karen Bjornson, Christie Brinkley, Pat Cleveland, Carmen Dell’Orefice, Jerry Hall, Bethann Hardison, Beverly Johnson, China Machado, Paulina Porizkova, Isabella Rossellini and Lisa Taylor shared with Greenfield-Sanders their career highs and lows and personal disappointments. Kim Alexis, Nancy Donahue, Esmé Marshall, Eileen Ford, Dayle Haddon, Cheryl Tiegs, Christy Turlington and Calvin Klein also appear in the film. Sundance Film Festival on Monday revealed that “About Face” will have its premiere at the festival, which will be held Jan. 19 to 29. “About Face” will air on HBO in the summer.

In the film, Rossellini says modeling taught her it was “essential not to depend on fathers and husbands.” Porizkova got a twisted take on praise. “What people called sexual harassment, we called compliments,” she said in the film. “When a 16-year-old girl is flattered by a man pulling out his penis, that’s noteworthy.”
