The 90s’ hottest supermodels are still stunning as ever. See models like Cindy Crawford and Naomi Campbell from their early days to now in our gallery.

The fashion of the ‘90s may have been off-kilter but these models were always on point! So many of today’s most famous supermodels are either still in the industry, building their empires, or looking back on the incredible legacy they left. Tyra Banks and Naomi Campbell were making history in the modeling world, as two powerful black women who took the runway and covers of magazines by storm!

Other models found that their careers led to bigger things, like acting! Bridget Moynahan memorably turned her stunning looks to the small screen on the HBO series ‘Sex & The City’ while other stars, like Christy Turlington, took their talents behind the camera later on in their career. Other models have chosen to live a quiet life, like Iman, who lost her beloved husband, David Bowie in 2016 after over 20 years of marriage.

These models have really made their marks! To see more ‘90s models and their transformations, check out the rest of the gallery.
