Yasmin Lebon looks fantastic. She must have a fountain of youth in her backyard. The first picture is very recent. The next three were back in the supermodel days.

Who was your favorite model?

I loved Christy Turlington, Gail Elliot, Yasmin, Yazmin G, Marie Seznac, Kate Moss and Shalom Harlow and Audrey Marnay. I am sure I am forgetting many.

Amber Valetta and Christy Turlington.

Patty, Cybill Sherpherd was so pretty. That makes me think of another person--Candace Bergen. She was so pretty in Carnal Knowledge, so elegant with that ponytail.

those pictures of Yasmin are lovely! Keira Knightley looks a bit like her, I think.

my favorite models were/are: Patti Hansen, Marisa Berensen, Iman, Isabella Rossellini, Shalom Harlow, Stella Tennant, Nadja Auermann, Tajana Patitz, Kate Moss, Alex Wek, and of the newcomers I like Gemma Ward quite a bit.

cheers! sara

I will date myself too, Patty! I loved Gia Carangi and Cybill Shepherd. I really like Bridget Moynihan, and I like Linda Evangelista lately because her face is so elegant as she has aged. Not that she is old! I love Carmen, who is the older model with the beautiful white hair. I loved Dovima. I do not think the new girls have such a presence as the ones from the past. I do think Jessica Stam has an interesting face.

Oh I loved Yasmin! She looks fantastic today. I remember I first saw her on the cover of Elle w/ this black turtleneck and gold hoop earrings. She looked so exotic and beautiful from all those blonde models of the 80's.

I adore Audrey Marnay, Jaquetta Wheeler, Karen Elson..the quirkier European girls rather than the Brazilian bombshells (who I will never, ever resemble, however much I try)

she is beautiful. Such a shame her husband is such a...well...lets be kind and say 'flirt.'

Nice Yasmin mention! I recently heard someone ask "who's Linda Evangelista" and felt so old...

I lived the first 20some years of my life in Youngstown, BTW!

Pattyg: Cybill was stunning in the Last Picture Show. I always loved when Moonlighting used her old modeling pictures for props.

greeneyes: Loved Amber too. I loved when she did the pixie cut. That is when she was at her height.
BTW: My favorite Candace Bergen picture is from the infamous Capote ball. She looked so amazing with her bunny ear mask.

Anon: That is a great list. I have the British Vogue that showcased Stella Tennant and Plum Sykes. It also featured Nadja with her hair a mousey blonde.
I loved Hansen,Berenson, Naomi Sims,Shrimpton,Dovima,Suzy Parker,Lisa Penn,Karen Elson, Erin O'Conner, Maggie Rizer,Irina,Gail Elliot,Trish,Helena C, Tyra(when she first came out and looked like a baby Naomi),Karen Alexander and many more.

Patti: Linda has aged well. They all have.
Out of the new models I prefer Irina because she takes interesting pictures and has great style.

Natalie: I remember that cover!!!
I always wanted to see her in more ads and editorials. She was never used enough. You could always count on her to do the Chanel catwalks.

Mar: I prefer the quirky ones too. I do love Cinta(sp?) though! Her red hair is so stunning.

Anon: Such a foolish man. She is as stunning as she was when she first started modeling. She looks fantastic while he has let himself go.

Nancy: Hi fellow ytowner!!!!
My co-workers were looking at pictures from Oprah's ball and they asked "Who is Naomi Sims?"
I was horrified that they had no idea who she was. I am tempted to do a supermodel month. People need to be aware who Sims and Evangelista were in the modeling industry. They were so important.
Your pictures were perfect!!!! I was excited that she had a site devoted to her.
PS: Ytown has not changed much. It is still the same.

Shalom and Naomi were amazing on the catwalk. Remember how great they walked? They were the best.
