It was the image that changed fashion for ever. In January 1990, British Vogue placed five models on its cover – Naomi Campbell, Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Tatjana Patitz and Cindy Crawford.
They would go on to become household names and tabloid fixtures, commanding higher fees than any models in history. The cover was subtitled “The 1990s: What next?” and, in just a few months, the answer was clear: the supermodels.
