Where Are They Now? ‘90s Supermodels
In the ‘90s the word supermodel found its meaning. A new wave of strong, independent and feisty women came onto the scene to completely transform the fashion industry forever.
These women changed culture with just a look and a pose and even as they age they haven’t lost any of their iconic looks.
Naomi Campbell Then
Campbell was discovered when she was 15 while studying ballet in London and by the age of 16, she was already appearing on the covers of magazines. She became the first African-American model to cover French Vogue and Time magazine.
While she was at the height of her fame, she was seen dating famous men like Mike Tyson, Eric Clapton and Robert DeNiro.
Naomi Campbell Now
Campbell has never strayed from the public eye and her modeling career is as strong as ever. She continues to walk runway shows for labels like Zac Posen and she has appeared in ad campaigns for Burberry and Agency Provocateur. Campbell has also dipped her toes in the acting world, with appearances on “American Horror Story: Hotel” and “Empire.”
Christy Turlington Then
Christy Turlington was discovered at age 14, while she was horseback riding. In the ‘90s, she was part of the supermodel ‘trinity’ (which also included famous faces Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista) as one of the most popular models of the decade.
During that time she was the face of brands such as Calvin Klein, Chanel, Missoni and Valentino.
Christy Turlington Now
Turlington has come a long was since her modeling days. After studying comparative religion and Eastern philosophy in college, she went on to gain a master’s degree in public health.
With her knowledge, she has also served on Harvard’s Global Health Council and produced a documentary with her husband about at-risk pregnant women around the world. She currently runs two activewear brands and an all-natural skincare line.
