      Weren’t the models in the 90’s and 80’s much more “gorgeous”? Yes they are today too..but I mean back then they had figures lol and they walked with personality and sexiness. I keep thinking of Naomi and Yasmeen…WOW they were SO lovely.

    What a fantastic video. I love your descriptions of the different looks. I love Marpessa. Definitely one of my favourite models of the 80's/90's. She featured in the video of Slave to Love by Bryan Ferry (my favourite song of all time) ❤

    Just like her name Marpessa Miss Heinz 57 the exotic was like kryptonite to Eileen Ford’s stable of pretty blonds. She came up during the 80s along with other exotics like Gail Elliott and Veronica Webb who all made the cut and segwayed into the 90s, the era of the supermodel! THEE best era 🙌🙌🙌

    I love how they walked then. They were allowed to have personality which is, I think why that era was so iconic for models as individuals. I WAS alive and into fashion big time then but I never noticed her. But of course we didn't see catwalk shows so much with no internet so mostly saw photo shoots and maybe she didn't do the collections I happened to like. ❤

    Marpessa was known for her sassy walk. Notice her arm and hip movements, which are slightly exaggerated. She also had a signature move that she often used at the end of the runway, right before she did her turn.
    She is one of my favorite models, along with Dalma Callado, Irina Pantaeva, and Gisele Zelauy.

    Marpessa was sometimes teamed with the beautiful Veronica Webb on the runway.She was one of the group of girls like Yasmin Le Bon & Gail Elliot who were slightly older than the supermodels, were not major players but were in all the major shows in the late 80s/early 90s

    As for best catwalkers ever, it's between yasmeen, marpessa and naomi and i don't think 4th place is close. We probably are just coming from the modern perspective that you're supposed to have a "signature walk" but these models had fairly long careers and didn't need to make themselves so distinct so they honed their craft instead. She's one of the few true catwalk chameleons to do it in that she walked differently to match the outfit, which to me almost seems obvious. She still could embellish with signature moves (heel kick when turning around), many of which are juvenile and whimsical and would not be classy on other people. But the fact that she gets away with it is sort of what makes her regal in that she is privileged to appear almost unprofessional because modeling isn't her "job." Countesses don't need jobs! She literally just looks like a girl playing the highest form of dressup ever. It's just phenomenal

    • @MalcolmSoaries
      @MalcolmSoaries  2 месяца назад

      Countesses don’t need jobs!!! Yessssss 🙌🏾💯 so well said sir! Personally I’d throw Naomi and maybe even Shalom in there too. But there were just so many insanely talented girls doing their thing in this era. So iconic! Yasmeen seemed to really be the benchmark of the 90s.
