Supermodels of the 90's

Cindy, Tatjana, Helena, Linda, Claudia, Naomi, Karen and Stephanie

I was completely obsessed with supermodels in my teens and early twenties. Not only was I obsessed with supermodels, I was obsessed with collecting fashion magazines. My collecting started when I was around 14-15 years old. I remember my first real fashion magazine was Mademoiselle. Goodness , I wish it stayed that simple.....collecting 1 brand of magazine. My obsession quickly grew to collecting Bazaar, Elle, Vogue, Allure .....and of course, (because I was still a teen), Seventeen magazine.

I can still remember Mila Jojovich on the cover of Seventeen, I think she was 12 or 13 years old. I also remember Cameron Diaz modeling in Seventeen when she was in her teens.

So this obsession of mine became out of control...I am talking hundreds of magazines that I collected over years. It became a hobby, collecting ,categorizing and organizing these magazines by the brand and by month/year.

I am sad to say, in my early 20's when I moved into a small apartment, there was no room for my huge collection. Plus , they were so ridiculously heavy, it would of taken 3-4 guys to carry all the boxes of magazines. I had to get rid of them.......and trust me, it was a sad sad day.

These magazines were a stress reliever for me......I could sit for hours in my room and flip through my magazine collection. It gave me calmness and peace.....

My favorite models at the time were Helena Christenson (she was GORGEOUS!), Christy Turlington, Linda Evangelista, Tatjana, Karen Mulder ...........the up and coming models I liked during the 90's were Amber and Shalom, Kate moss.....Anyways, I came across this picture and I swear for a moment, I was a teenager again sitting in my room looking through all my magazines. I remember this photoshoot spread ( I think it was in Vogue) , I thought everyone looked crazy gorgeous.

I thought I would post "Freedom" by George Michael......I watched this video obsessively when it first came out..... I thought it was so cool that supermodels were featured in a music video.....ENJOY!

Peace,
