With social media as the most important means to measure success, people in general have started to take themselves more seriously. It perhaps has something to do with the infleuncer culture – big fashion models have simultaneously become supermodels. Smiling in campaigns and on runways simply isn’t experienced as chic nowadays. However, we doubt this is the reason why fashion models have stopped smiling at the runways. According to World Bank, the fashion industry is held responsible for ten percent of global carbon emission, which is more than those of flights and maritime shipping combined. A brighter period followed, but the new generation fashion models still remained quite serious, except at occasions like Victoria’s Secret and associates.ĬHANEL Spring Summer 1995 by Karl Lagerfeld Part 1, Hair by Orlando Pita, Accessories by Victoire de Castellane, #claudiaschiffer #naomicampbell #naomi #rosemariewetzel #brandiquinones #beverlypeele #helenachristensen #stephanieseymour #chanel #chanelparis #rtw #supermodel #topmodel #vogue #karllagerfeld #instagood #lagerfeld #catwalk #90 #90sfashion #90ssupermodels #fashionblogger #parisfashionweek #instafashion #pfw #model #moda #cocochanel (copyrighted video)Ī post shared by 𝐔𝐍𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐆𝐄𝐓𝐓𝐀𝐁𝐋𝐄 RUNWAY on at 11:14am PSTĭid fashion in general became a more serious business? Does it have to do with an after shock of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements? When looking at the current state of the world and the fashion industry’s role in it, there’s not much to laugh about. When one of the best paid fashion models of all time entered the scene around 1999, Vogue said that Gisele Bündchen brought back the healthy dose of glamor. After Sorrenti’s sudden death, magazine editor’s became stricter and always wanted to know the direction of the shoot before it would take place.Īnd so did heroin chic slowly fade away. Big names such as Juergen Teller, Craig McDean, David Sims and Terry Richardson were guilty as well. Sorrenti’s photos were entirely in line with his lifestyle models looking drugged, unhealthy and skinny posed for his camera, at locations many of us rather wouldn’t be after 9 pm. Sorrenti’s death was a turning point for the industry, as The New York Times wrote in 1997. When renowned fashion photographer Davide Sorrenti accidentally died at age 20 – after an overdosis of heroin, this ‘trend’ couldn’t stay any longer. #katemoss #kaiagerberstyle #vintageaesthetic #vintagestyle #vintage #aesthetic #moodboard #magazine #mood #digitalcreator #digitalart #design #designer #fashionstyle #fashiondesigner #celebrity #90sbaby #90sfashion #90s #visualdiary #visualart #editorial #supermodel #model #tumblrĪ post shared by casualmoode on at 3:51am PDT And glorifying death is not good for any society.” And this is not about art, it’s about life and death. He said: “ The glorification of heroin is not creative, it’s destructive. Even the then president, Bill Clinton, openly spoke out against this new form of chic and the way in which Calvin Klein used it to sell clothes. However, campaigns like these were widely criticized. Moss was the icon and embodiment of heroin chic, with her skinny body and flaffy hair. In 1993, Calvin Klein released a campaign for its Obsession scent, with Kate Moss as their model. This look was a reaction against the vibrant supermodels of the ’90s, such as Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Claudia Schiffer. It was characterized by skinny girls, dark circles around the eyes, visible bone structure and pale skin. Soon after, the heroin chic look became the new norm.
It wasn’t at coincidence that the applause she got was beyond the moon. When Naomi Campbell fell during a Vivienne Westwood show (1993), she didn’t do anything but laugh. However, the super models of the ’80s and early’90s weren’t afraid to laugh, though. While most models have million dollar smiles, just a few are lucky to use them for shoots and campaigns. Why? Let’s figure out.Ĭover photo: © Unsplash A million dollar smile Looking at today’s runway shows, those pretty pouts are still present, yet their smiles have fade away.
