The Super's Are Back
Oh, how we've missed them (did they ever really leave?), the Supermodels that is. Christy Turlington is on the cover of January's W magazine. With a photo spread inside, shot by photographer Mario Sorrenti, she still has it. If you're a magazine lover (like myself) you probably have noticed over the past two or three years more and more of "The Supers" in major ads and covers. Lisa Evandelista for Prada, Naomi Campbell for YSL, Claudia Schiffer for Chanel. Why are magazine editors and designers still going for the Tried and True? Personally, I am tired of actresses and singer on the covers. Lets get back to what matters the most "The Fashion", and lets face it, no one can do it like "The Supers". They ran the 90's and we still love them today. When they appear in ads or covers they bring a certain nostalgia and class that rings "Professional Model" not "I got the gig because I am a skinny British/Russian/German girl" but someone that knows how to work the camera. These girls are in their late 30's and 40's and still giving Giselle, Kate, and Agyness a run. Who said models don't have a career after 30? They must haven't heard of "The Supers".
