18 Retro Photos That Prove Cindy Crawford Is the Ultimate Runway Model
Cindy Crawford is back in the news these days; she's turning the big 5-0 in February and has already decided to open up to the media about how it feels to age in such a looks-centric industry. Basically, in short, she says it ain't great.
Of course, Crawford continues to look amazing no matter her age, and all this talk of the supermodel got us thinking about her history on the runway. During her heyday in the '90s, Crawford walked for every major designer brand from Chanel to Isaac Mizrahi—and every time she stepped onto the catwalk, she absolutely killed it.
We're taking a little walk down memory lane today. Keep scrolling to see some vintage photos of Crawford hitting the runway in the '90s, and shop some of our favorite slip dresses '90s-era Crawford would love!
