The Old Is New Again : The Supes Take Over in Editorials & Campaigns

^im 22 and so im not quite 'the present generation of young people' and i still find them boring

and that arguement that its a problem of the 'younger generation' is just so bland, sorry...its the same if i would say just because ur an 'older generation' u find the new models bland and lifeless

So why is it that for more than a decade we have failed to produce any really internationally-famous models? With the current exception of Agyness Deyn, and her trademark peroxide crop, very few of the most highly-paid models have carved out a recognisable persona for themselves.

It's a blame game, with magazines, photographers, model agents and designers all finding the root fault with someone else. But it's telling that the influential Miuccia Prada, the designer often credited with an insatiable desire for new modelling flesh, has turned to Evangelista in times of global economic uncertainty.

You will also see that perfume companies are turning to traditional nostalgic scents and bottle shapes for their new launches - no weird torsos for now.

Familiarity does not breed contempt. It sells.

I'm glad that some oldest models could still work. It's important to see girls in every age in magazines. I just hate the fact that they work in the same time in lots of campaign. But I prefer seeing Linda, Christy or Naomi than Catherine McNeil (model with one expression), Sasha P (ugly). Natalia V. and other boring models of today.
