[Missoni~Heiress]

You took this thread to a whole new level.

i eventually found out he was a coke dealer ( i dont like people who do this stuff)

i still want to take him back but my friends wont let me...

 

[NOE]

This very cover made me fall in love with Christy Turlington...

I was 14 and I totally remember buying it! She is a timeless beauty that still looks just as amazing 12 years later. I can never wrap my brain around how flawless her face is.

I had liked other models before last summer, such as Kate Moss and Gisele Bundchen, but I fell in love with Gemma Ward when I first saw her in the May/June 2004 issue of Teen Vogue. The magazine had published a backstage photo of her wearing a red plaid coat for a Prada show, and it didn't take long before I was completely besotted with her unique beauty.

I first fell in love with Gemma Ward, after reading a newspaper article about her and seeing her on FTV. But then, I saw Caroline Trentini and I've been 'under her spell' ever since.

Saw this girl who caught my eye in the social pages of Harper's Bazaar. "Angela Lindvall", wearing this cute yellow dress cut at her knees, black cardigan and LV bag. This sort of wilting, model-perfect look on her face. Immediately I was intrigued at who this beautiful specimen was, so I googled her, and I've adored her adamantly since. Her body of work throughout the years is just super impressive and I honestly feel something when I see her pictures that I don't get from any other model. Plus I've come to learn more of her personality and values, beliefs, morals and so on, which have merely served to reinforce my like of her.

I first fell in love with Gisele Bundchen

 

[Sloan]

I am showing my age her, but I would have to say that I loved Niki Taylor when I saw her in magazines for the first time. She was so young, fresh and beautiful. I loved her smile! I wanted to look just like her even though it wasn't possible.....I have always been interested in fashion, but really got interested in models again when my sister Ali started modeling.

 

[moi non plus]

For me it was Carmen Kass. I still adore her. It was while I was in high school that I first fell for her. I developed an obsession with fashion magazines and models. I would bring them to school and have my friends practice ID-ing the girls in the editorials. I have saved almost all of my magazines since that time (although most of them are partially cut up) and Vogue 1999-Present (as well as other publications) currently occupy three shelves of the bookcase in my study at my parents' home.

mine was nikki taylor. when she was a spokesperson for cover girl i would scour my moms magazines and try to find pictures of her to stare at. i would think "wow, i want to look like her when i grow up" because we had similar features. she stands the most outi litearlly have so many memories of her.

christy turlington i love because she's from my area.
kate moss is a mention too, i loved her, still do.

 

[ball79]

Which one of them? humm shh it's a secret..

 

[tom]

Actually FELL IN LOVE is a too big expression...

Anyway the first model that really charmed me was Yasmeen Ghauri (it was a lot of time ago...)



I still remember her catwalk pics: wonderful!



The Versace ads (about 1990)



the same era Valentino camapign and the Vendetta parfum (by Valentino) ads :

[... part two]

This one is more recent (about 1998) - I think it was her last major ad:



She had (has) a wonderful body (she was a swimmer - and that is why she has that broad shoulders) and a very cool face: after more than 15 years I still like her a lot!

A few more, for those to young to remeber her look



And a last picture...

 

[xtine888]

I ADORE Elise Crombez. She's so adorable, in a simultaneously youthful and classy way. And she has a wonderful smile. I first noticed her in the runway pictures at vogue.com rather reently; she has a v. unique and drop-dead gorgeous look.

 

[SiennaInLondon]

I was born in the 1980s -into a world where Christy Turlington ruled supreme. I never "fell in love" -Christy was always there. I have to say conciously though I really loved Amber and Shalom in the 1990s. It is wierd they are all North Americans. Virtually no models I now like are North American (unless you could Yasmin W as Canadian which ba humbug to that -she is Somali to me)

 

[secondly]

I can't explain why, but whenever I see a picture of Jessica Miller I get kind of excited. I don't even like half of her pictures, but I just like looking at her and she stirs something in me.

 

[acester]

I first became intersted in models when I saw an article on Tiiu Kuik in Teenvogue she was beautiful soo gorgeous. Then i just kept noticing models and looked them up..i can't quite remember the first model i totally d but still it was Tiiu that did it for me

 

[acester]

I REMEMBER!! i was reading an article about the model revolution in STM (Sunday Times Magazine) and i saw the picture of a cover(vogue or elle or bazaar or something) with all 9 big models and Hana's face was bent to the side slightly and she had this amazing purpley pink metallic glow to her face i then became obsessed with her hahah

 

[hugobossdaria]

when i saw a victora secret show on tv my first interest was adriana lima then gisele,karolina,jessica stam,jessica miller, and now daria.

 

[hanaward]

I first crushed Karolina. I kept seeing her everywhere: from every magazine possible to television shows like Jay Leno or on VH1 or EXTRA (this was around 2001-2002 when she was extremely big). Then I saw her in Victoria's Secret and I just thought she was the most beautiful thing ever.

The next crushee was Hana. I had seen a lot of models, but when I saw Hana on the cover of a magazine, I was just fascinated with her beauty.

Apparently I have something for the Czech girls.

I'm kinda crushing Valentina and Daria now.
