She was one of “The Big Six”, hosted MTV’s House of Style and has an iconic beauty mark above the corner of her lip- she’s Cindy Crawford. Alongside the other original supermodels, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, Christy Turlington and Claudia Schiffer, Cindy is one of the few models in the world who can truly call herself “Super”. These 6 are rightfully recognized within the fashion industry as deserving of the title “Supermodel”. And while many models like Twiggy and Elle McPherson paved the way for the era of the supermodel, and models like Gisele Bundchen and Karolina Kurkova have followed, the term “supermodel” really belongs to a phenomenon that began in the 80’s and lasted through the 90’s.
