Back in the 1990s, supermodels ruled - and not just the runway. In a time before pop stars became cover stars, the Supers' incredible faces graced the glossy magazines, and their equally-incredible bodies sold clothes by the truck-load. They starred in Bon Jovi music videos, and dated movie stars such as Richard Gere and Robert De Niro. And, infamously, they didn't get out of bed for less than $10,000. A few decades on, the power of the Supers shows no sign of waning. If today's announcement that Christy Turlington is once again set to be the face of Calvin Klein Underwear - 25 years after she first starred in the label's campaigns - doesn't convince you, then this Then and Now gallery of the supermodels will.
