Such a memorable flashback compilation. Karen’s exceptional beauty and hard work cemented her place in history as a 90’s Super Model. There’s an old video here on RU-vid showing Karen and her very own Barbie Doll that was made in her likeness. 20 years ago she was very brave coming forward to speak out against Elite Model’s ex President Gerard Marie and his predatory behaviour. She hasn’t been seen very much since then. I’d love to see her again too but I just hope she’s living her best life, she deserves it.
Exactly. And she talked about a royal having raped her - many believe this was about „someone“ in Monaco . She was declared „mentally ill“ and shoved out of the spotlight. Still think she might have had regular ptsd and you could still silence even someone famous like her in the early 2000s a lesson for people who say „why didn’t women speak out against Weinstein sooner“.
Now Gworl! THE BEAUTOPIA, you did not have to snap this hard!! Excellent video, I love seeing footage of her that I haven't seen before! Great work. Karen is my favorite 90s model and 2nd favorite model of all time.
She was so effortlessly sexy, in the best possible way. Among her cohorts, she oozed the most natural and raw sex appeal. She was the Jessica Rabbit of her time. She had the perfectly carved face of Barbie with those naturally plump lips and beautifully carved square jawline and sultry blue eyes, with a bit of girl next door/swimsuit bombshell qualities, and a bit of modern Hollywood blonde glamour that gave her an edge to look sophisticated and classic, yet also contemporary. She could do sexy looks for Victoria's Secret, Sports Illustrated, Playboy, Esquire, Guess, Versace, Dolce Gabbana, but also sophisticated for Dior, Givenchy, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent, Oscar de la Renta, etc. Such a doll she was. Wished she came back to the runways, magazines, and fashion campaigns. She is such a legend she is.
She was the prototype supermodel that we've seen today on Candice Swanepoel, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and others today. Overwhelmingly Beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤.
Favorite looks 0:53, 0:57, 1:20, 1:25 (hair looks very similar to when Penelope Cruz played Donatella Versace), 1:54, 2:02 (I mean hot damn! NO wonder she became a VS Angel), 2:49, 2:56 (gorgeous), 3:30, 3:39 (this is probably the best look that brings out her beauty. I mean that intimidatingly sultry glare of superiority she gave at the end of the runway, makes us look like we are so below her, ugh!!), 4:39.
Barbie has been out since 1959. No way she was modeled after these models who weren't even born then. What you mean is that Mattel made custom Barbie dolls of Claudia, Naomi and Karen in the 90s. Claudia got a new Barbie doll again recently.
