tearsheets – Harper’s Bazaar October 1994

Big surprise – I am not a magazine buyer, but I am a magazine-acquirer. Particular joy is found in old magazines of all kinds, so I thought I would share favourite scans occasionally. First up: Harper’s Bazaar October 1994.
Editor-in-Chief – Elizabeth Tilberis. On the cover: Claudia Schiffer in Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel.

Linda Evangelista parties with Versace, sends photos.


Cindy Crawford does fierce for Gianni Versace in a gold leather minidress with matching over-the-knee boots AND a matching mini-knapsack. No one does lux-trashy as opulently as Gianni.

Rocks the infamous gold chainmail.

Beautiful Kate Moss captivates for CK. Black and white photography and stark backdrops seem to be the the modern thing to do in 1994. This issue also contains THE CK One ad… you know the one.

With models like these, who needs colour. Nadya Auermann destroys me with beauty in “An Ode to the Female Form”.
