Rare Shots of '90s Supermodels We're Pinning for Outfit Inspiration
When it comes to guilty pleasures, there are very few things we love more than scrolling through a gallery of supermodels in their '90s heyday. Pre-Instagram and at the height of their game, instead of under perfect airbrushing or with a dozen filters put over the top, the images of Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, and Claudia Schiffer et al. seem much more realistic than today's equivalents. And because '90s fashion is still going strong, there's nothing we love more than getting a bit of added outfit inspo, too. So if you're in a thumb-twiddling slump any time, then might we suggest scrolling through the gallery of the coolest '90s supermodels pictures ever.
Style Notes: The one, the only Cindy Crawford in that famous red Jessica Rabbit-style dress.
Style Notes: This is still one of our favourite Kate Moss outfits of all time.
Style Notes: When over-accessorising your swimwear looks oh-so-easy—Naomi Campbell is the queen of looking dressed up.
Style Notes: Eva Herzigova being super-casual in Cannes.
Style Notes: At some point in your life, you've probably tried to re-create this Kate Moss slip-dress look.
Style Notes: Karen Mulder maybe be a supermodel name you don't know—either way, you'll want that polka dot outfit.
