September is an important month in the fashion industry, not only because there are four fashion weeks in September, most fashion magazines are also launched in September, and the advertising revenue of the year will basically be determined in September. Therefore, in the fashion circle, there is a saying of "golden nine silver ten". Every September and October covers, especially the covers of the five major women's magazines "VOGUE", "Harper's Bazaar", "Jia Ren", "ELLE" and "Fashion Cosmo" are the resources for celebrities to break the head.
Recently, many magazines have come out with the cover of Jinjiu one after another. The September issue of Harper's Bazaar is as domineering as ever, with Céline Dion leading the covers, with Christy Turlington Burns, Alicia Keys, Kate Moss, Alek Wek, Shailene Woodley, and others on the inside pages. Today I'm going to talk about one of them, Christy Burns.
Christie was one of the "Big Five Supermodels" of the last century, having worked as an advertising model for CK for decades, and in 2013, at the age of 44, she also went out to shoot a commercial campaign for CK.
Christie was born in California, USA, although American, but Christie has an elegant British aristocratic temperament. His father was British, a pan-American pilot, and his mother was a flight attendant. Inheriting her parents' proud height and Latin ancestry, she was outstanding from an early age. At the age of 13, Christie was addicted to equestrianism and aspired to become a jockey. One day while riding a horse with her sister, a photographer took a set of photos of her that caught her attention in the fashion world.
At the age of 14, Christie became popular in the modeling industry. Before the age of 16, Christie was the exclusive model for vogue in the United States, which allowed Christie, who was still in adolescence, to perfectly skip the stage of shyness and self-doubt, so she was confident and radiant at any time.
At the age of 18, Christie became a full-time model. Two years later she got a contract with CK worth $1.2 million. From 1987 to 2007, she worked as a model for Calvin Klein. At the age of 23, she climbed to the top of her career with a $2 million Maybelline advertising contract, and before that, became the most expensive model. Her income can no longer be described as a daily gold, her beauty, her style has conquered everyone in the fashion industry, And Lafayette once praised her as "the most perfect facial features". The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which once named Christie a 20th-century face, shows that she was born in the middle of the 20th century, and her beauty influenced the entire century.
Many models are not so cooperative with the brand after becoming famous, but people in the fashion industry are willing to cooperate with Christie, and her good temper is famous. "As a model, I can get praise as long as I have a sweet mouth, a good team spirit, and hang my own clothes. Isn't that easy? ”
At the age of 25, Christie announced her retirement from modeling and entered New York University to major in comparative religion and Eastern philosophy. Among the five supermodels, Christie is undoubtedly the most classical. She has her own unique understanding of the modeling industry, she said in an interview with the Daily Mail: "Modeling is not helpful to people, it is just an interesting opportunity." But it is of no benefit, either mentally or intellectually. ”
After leaving the modeling world, Christie has been active in the field of sports, and yoga she learned at the age of eighteen became another label for her. Her love of yoga led her to become an unofficial spokesperson for the yoga movement around the world and published a book called Living Yoga.
After 2008, Christie gradually returned to the fashion circle. This year, Christie took over several big brand advertisements, and appeared on the cover of vogue's French magazine in October, and in November, Christie was announced as the new editor of Marie Claire magazine. She is always trying new identities, so that people who are not willing to be ordinary are always particularly attractive.
