I barely follow models these days. They just don’t compare and they have all started to look the same to me when I check out runway photos – uninteresting clothes hangers. I have never been a Kate Moss fan. She really bores me. Of course, I loved all the “supermodels” of our time. Okay as far as newer models go, I love token redhead Karen Elson. That’s about it.
Growing up looking at fashion magazines in the 80s and 90s, I had a few favorite models: Kristen McMennamy, Stella Tennant, Kristy Hume (they have been making a major comeback lately), Nadja Auerman, and Meghan Douglas (all mentioned here). Douglas often gets overlooked for the buxom powerhouse she is. So, here are a few pics to get you feeling nostalgic.
(I tried to cite as many as I could so if you have any credits, please send them my way!)
Meghan Douglas – Vogue Dec 1991 – ahhh, the end of the 80s!
I had this picture on my bedroom wall.
