The Dark Truth Behind The 90s Supermodel Era

For one decade, they were the most photographed women on earth. Cindy Crawford held six billboards in Times Square in a single month. Linda Evangelista said she wouldn't wake up for less than ten thousand dollars a day. Naomi Campbell broke every racial barrier fashion had. Kate Moss changed what beauty looked like overnight. But behind the glossy covers and the runway triumphs, something darker was happening. Karen Mulder was committed to a psychiatric hospital and attempted suicide. Nikki Taylor spent six weeks in a coma. Ruslana Korshunova jumped from her ninth-floor balcony at 20. Linda Evangelista lost her face to a cosmetic procedure that promised the opposite. The era that produced the most iconic images in fashion history also produced some of the most devastating personal collapses. This is the untold story of what perfection actually cost the women who defined the 90s.
