Jill Sobule may have said it best in her infectious song "Supermodel" from the soundtrack of one of my favorite movies, Clueless: "I don't care what my teachers say..I wanna be a supermodel."
It's the dream of so many little girls to grow up and become a leggy, famous supermodel and on the same note, the world has been fascinated with these goddess-like girls since the rise of the term "supermodel" in the '90s.
The world's top supermodels of the '90s all appeared in the glamorous music video for George Michael's tune "Freedom '90." Linda Evangelista, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Schiffer, Christy Turlington..doesn't get any better than this.
Today, there are three supermodels that always catch my eye, whether it's their killer runway walk, savage editorial presence, or effortlessly cool off-duty style: Anja Rubik, Sasha Pivovarova and Natasha Poly.
Besides being gorgeous, Anja has an exotic versatility that makes her one of the most in-demand models in the world. I can't get enough of this editorial spread she shot for Vogue Paris' February 2010 issue.
So edgy - I'm obsessed.
To get Rubik's eye look here, I would totally mix the matte Black Eyeliner (add a drop of water for catlike precision) with a hint of Carina's new Prettier in Pink eyeshadow.
Anja's street style is always on-point, a quirky mix of eccentric pieces and chic femininity.
Now on to Sasha Pivovarova. That face..it's like beautiful, tiny porcelain doll. Her recent zany spread in the February 2010 issue of Interview really caught my eye.
It's part whimsical, part creepy, and totally original.
When Sasha's off-duty, her style choices are daring and inventive.
Rounding out my dream-team supermodel trifecta is Natasha Poly.
From her chiseled bone structure and unmistakable come-hither glances, I am all about Natasha. Loving her editorial spread from the April 2010 issue of Numéro Tokyo.
So simple and so chic.
When she's off-duty, Natasha's street style is always impeccable.
Love those cat eye sunglasses and that glitzy mini.
I leave you with the perfect video to dance around in the mirror to and strike some poses... come on, vogue.
FUN TASK:
If you were a supermodel for a day, what would you do on your dream day? What shows would you walk in, what editorial shoots would you pose for? After-parties, ridiculous demands? Let's hear it.
A few of my favorites will win Black Eyeliner, Prettier in Pink and the book "Kate Moss: Style" - great coffee table book.
'Til next time,
Love, Taylor

What a great assignment
!!! Well, I guess I would love love love to do a classic défilé such as CHANEL , a more rock n' roll one such as Victor & Rolf, Stella Mc Cartney and definiteky a crazy one like : Vivienne Westwood , John Galiano & Jean-Paul Gauthier.
I would love to pose for an editorial shoot for the US Vogue with Grace Coddington & David Sims, Anne Leibovitz and Ellen Von Unwerth & the French Numero.
But what I would really rock my world would be to do is a music video with Jean-Baptiste Mondino
Beijinhos from sunny Lisbon :-)

As for editorials, one of my favorites is the December 2003 "Alice in Wonderland" shoot in Vogue shot by Annie Leibovitz and starring Natalia Vodianova. Since I have magically become genetically gifted and have become supermodel for the day (damn my short stature), I also have the power to turn back time and do that shoot in her place!
After that, I'd hit up any party hosted by Marc Jacobs because I hear he throws the most reDONKulous bashes, particularly his Halloween party (I think my invitation last year got lost in the mail...yeah, that's it). I'd go all out like Heidi Klum with my costume--to the point that I'm not even recognizable.
Because I only get to be a supermodel for one day, I'd take the chance to be greedy and make requests on the level of J.Lo and her all-white demands. I want Jo Malone candles everywhere, VOSS water, Sprinkles cupcakes, Laduree Macarons, and someone to tell me at regular intervals that I am "really, really good-looking."

If I was a supermodel for a day I would love to go to a spa, I would demand the best treatment ever. i would then go to a photo shoot for vogue magazine and demand that they treat me like a princess. I would love to throw a temper tantrum and get away with it because I am beautiful and famous!
written by Scoodydoo, March 09, 2010
I would go to denny;s for breakfast, sad I know but I love that place
I would then hit up all of the LA hotspots
I would then do a photo shoot for elle magazine and tell them that they have to let me keep everything that I wear and everything that I want that I see!
I would then strut down the catwalk for Gucci and have a celebratory dinner at CUT

2)I would then get out of bed, brush my teeth and head out to my photoshoot. I do not want anyone to see me like this so I would cover up. Once I got to my photo shoot for Vogue Magazine I would let the stylists have at it. They would have to do me totally up. I would tell my reps to make sure that they have lots of blue and red M&M's because those are the only ones that I like. The M&M's have to be separated too. Before I left, I would demand that they redid my makeup for a day look and off I would go for an impromptu runway show down the Hollywood Walk of Fame! From there they would have to do my makeup for a killer night look. Then I want to eat dinner at Opaque.

Shooting with Helmut Newton for French Vogue, walking the runways for Chanel and shooting campaigns for Dior. And let's not forget having your makeup done by the genius that was Way Bandy and having Wilhelmina Cooper as your mother-figure.
Bowie Kid by day and Studio 54 superstar by night, draped in Halston or YSL and rubbing shoulders with Bianca Jagger and Marisa Berenson while sharing a cocktail with Andy Warhol.
My only ridiculous demand would be that John Taylor of Duran Duran would be my escort to every party... and hold my umbrella if it rains while walking in downtown Manhattan.

I would HAVE to have Fiji water, and tons of king size snickers bars (I wouldnt actually eat them but I would take them and leave all the wrappers so there would be a buzz about how I could eat so much and stay so thin...) you know... just to mess with people...
I would spend half my days (after all my photoshoots and appearances) shopping for vintage treasures and new fabulous creations, and in the evenings I would dine at the best restaurants and go to nightclubs.
written by fayemaygo, March 09, 2010
I would have a great time being a Supermodel I would go to all the parties and clubs, but I would also make sure to always be prompt to my photoshoots, because I think it is ultra rude to keep people waiting... I think I would like to be a bit "eccentric" as a Supermodel, wear the most daring cutting edge creations, and INSANE makeup. I would stomp down the runway at D&G, Dior, and Christian Audiger shows. I would have a rocker edge to me , like I do now... but glam it up 2 the xtreme. What's the use of being a supermodel if you don't get attention!
hehe

I would probably want a private jet so I could jet set off to Europe whenever I wanted... and would definitely want to be on the cover of Vogue and Vanity Fair.

I would die to be her any day of the late 80's or early 90's!
As her I would get to be muse to and collaborate with some of the world's most talented photographers and create striking images such as:
With Peter Lindbergh: Fantasy flight in black and white
With Steven Meisel: Dramatic and ethereal
and with Herb Ritts: Graphic and architectural
Then I would be able to upstage Isaac Mizrahi in his Unzipped documentary as an uber bitchy supermodel with quotes like these:
" Isaac why do you ALWAYS give me the flat shoes and Naomi Campbell the high heels?? Every single time! You gave me SLIPPERS for the finale last year! Do you have something against white women?"
to Isaac: "I have a cramp in my foot and you don't care!!!!"
to a boom operator always following her: "SWEETIE, SWEETIE! You always have that microphone in my f***ing face!"
Even when Linda was bad she was good. She was definitely the bomb and had the clout to be selective on what she wanted to do.
If I were her today, I would definitely want to walk in these shows: Rick Owens, Balenciaga, John Galliano, Lanvin, Givenchy, and Rodarte. That would be a killer day!
P.S. Although Linda doesn't work that much anymore, my today's supermodel pick would be Daria Werbowy
Enjoy,
Monica

But let's see... I think if i had the luxury of being a supermodel for a day, I'd start off by waking up in one of those amazing plush white terry cloth robes (I always wanted one of those) and I'd probably demand really random things like Voss water, the perfect selection of Thai food and sushi, my giant box of Nag Champa incense sticks burning at all times, watermelon sour patch kids, etc. etc.
As for editorials, I think anything shot by Steven Meisel would make me a happy camper. You could do all the styling ;o) (I died for all your outfits on the show. I can recall you wearing two things that gave me mini panic attacks in my body: an amazing Tom Binns necklace... and those thigh high Louboutins. Dead.) Anyway what else... I could probably die happy if I had the opportunity to walk in a Chanel show. Balmain, Givenchy, Alexander Wang, Gucci... those will do too =) I'll end my night by attending a Marc jacobs party. And I know you've probably been to one, so I'm dying a little on the inside writing this to you right now.
Thanks for the chance to win the giveaway, and also for making me realize I'm actually NOT a supermodel, and I have to get back to work now!

I would have loved to walk the Chanel runway and be BFF with Karl Lagerfeld.
Love Alexander Wang, Gucci. I would go to Fashion Week NY, Paris, Milan. I would want to take in as much as possible!
Sushi galore (only the best) and hmm.... some nice caviar- I love GOOD caviar. It's amazing. I would live on Champagne (my favorite) and live it up!
I think I would just have fun and work hard to be the best I could be!
written by nervosa, March 10, 2010
Demands would be Lattes, Chcolates and fresh foods. I would walk the runway for Everyone! I wouldn't be discriminatory until I HAD to choose and then perhaps D&G, Prada, and Gucci.
I would love to be on the cover of Vogue and I would hit up ALL the parties!!!

If I were a supermodel for a day..hmm..
I would love to walk Alexander McQueen(rip) because from all the pictures/videos I've ever seen from his shows they are so bizarre yet wonderfully brilliant. It's more like watching a production in the making than watching a fashion show. Chanel would also be a show I would love love love to walk. So classic, elegant, timeless. Not much else to say! I think I would be happy to walk any runway show though, just to have a great designer allowing me to broadcast their collection for the first time..such an honor!
Besides that I would love to just mingle with other models/designers/stylists/bloggers/etc..anyone in the fashion world. Just gaining insight on the fashion world and the different perspectives would be fascinating.

I would definitely want to walk the Prada runway! Also Armani, Gucci, Chanel, you know, the classics!
Vogue, Marie Claire and Elle would be on the top of my list.
Oh one more demand from this diva...
Taylor Jacobson would have to be my stylist on all my shoots!






written by FRIDAY21, March 12, 2010
If I was a supermodel for a day I would demand that I would forever be a supermodel!
I would love to do a photoshoot for vogue magazine and a runway show for an known designer to help them get their clothesline up and running!
written by Nevertoomuchlove, March 12, 2010
1)Do something for the community that I grew up in. I think that it is important to give back to where you came form to help make it a better place.
2) I would do a runway show, I have always wanted to experience that. The thrill, the excitement, the chaos.
3) I would do something naughty so that I could get away with it. Something that if the average person did it they would get in trouble but since it was me they would just look the other way! I would also want to only drink water from sweden!

Hope u all have a great weekend

written by charisse.m, March 12, 2010
what shows would you walk in? Monique Lhuillier's fashion show! I love her classic style!
what editorial shoots would you pose for? I'd pose for the most powerful fashion magazine editors like Anna Wintour (Vogue) and Cindi Leive (Glamour)
after-parties? all the NY Fashion Show After-Parties, of course!
ridiculous demands? okay, here goes... naturally I'd demand that all makeup used on me would be EDM products. Skincare products would have to contain no harmful ingredients. I'd want to have an unlimited supply of Kona Nigari mineral water http://www.hawaiilifeofluxury....ari-water/ (one of the world's most expensive H2Os) every day to keep me beautiful. And on top of my ridiculous paycheck, I would also demand the privilege of choosing any item(s) I'd want from the collection of the designer I'm posing for. Supermodel diva much?

I would want the incredibly talented Annie Leibovitz to shoot it because she is just AM-Azing, and who wouldn't want to say "yeah, I posed for Annie Lebovitz"
I would love to walk to runway for Mark Liu, Elena Garcia and Meadow Compton. I think it would be great to highlight these amazing designers for the world with my mad super model skillz!
Demands would be a scrumptious all veggie menu all fresh foods and filtered water
written by flyaway, March 14, 2010
I would make ridiculous demands like only blue M&Ms, and trail mix with the raisins and peanuts picked out.
and pre-peeled Kiwis, Fiji water with icecubes made from Fiji Water.
Blackberries, Raspberries, and cherries (pitted)
Grated carrots, and grated cucumbers.
Coffe with 1 sugar 2 creams, but when they gave it to me, I would tell them that I said 2 sugars 1 cream.
I would love to be difficult just for the sake of being difficult.... and at some point I would have to throw my phone at someone (not AT AT... like in their general direction) and then make them buy me a new one...
Walk for Fendi, Givenchy, Alexander Wang and I must walk for Alexander Mcqueen. Vogue and V.... do we only have 1 day? Sheesh. I think I need more!
