Announced October 6 of 2020, the much-anticipated documentary directed by two-time Academy Award Winner Barbara Kopple, set to premier this September 20, will focus on Linda Evangelista, Christy Turlington, Naomi Campbell, and Cindy Crawford ascent into Supermodels and the Fours impact on the fashion industry.

Fashion industry icons like Peter Lindbergh and Gianni Versace were so instrumental in the formation of the modern Supermodel, which was inaugurated in the October 1988 issue of British Vogue titled World Class of 88. These complicated, multihyphenate, dauntless women became not only the heroines of fashion but heralds of an unforgettable time in culture and art still beloved to this day:
“I was rather uninspired with the way women were photographed in the ’80s. I was trying to photograph them in a different way, but nobody seemed to care back then… I wanted to move away from the rather formal, quite perfectly styled woman who was very artificial. I was more concerned about a more outspoken, adventurous woman in control of her life and not too concerned about her social status or emancipated by masculine protection. My ideal was always the young women I met in art school, very independent and who could speak for themselves. The supermodels represented this change. It explains why they dominated the visual world for many years.”
“Not attracted by the opulent aesthetics of the 1980s, Lindbergh transformed “his” women into heroines of our times: models who became performers, personalities who became supermodels to later be known only by their first names.”

And maybe we’re just kids who’ve grown And maybe not And maybe when we’re on our own We don’t have much
But oh, we are young and not tired of it Oh, we are young and easily lead Oh, with all the kids getting out of their heads
Oh, Class A, Class B Is that the only chemistry? Oh, Class A, Class B Is that the only chemistry Between us
Under the auspices of Dior’s Creative Director Maria Grazia Chiuri, the famed Lady Dior handbag created in 1995 and named after Princess Diana, is experiencing a cultural resurgence. Chiuri wanting a kind of evolution of The Lady Bag instead of a reinvention, designed a handbag not only honoring the original but also incorporating modernized elements. Laetitia Casta is seen with her large black leather version of Chiuri’s reimagining of the Lady Dior which is now softened and rounded, compared to the rigorous architecture of the former, mixing Maxi and Macrocannage motifs in its sleek signature letter charms. The two handles of the Lady Dior two handles are delicately refined with leather, metal punctuated with the Dior charms made famous by Monsieur Dior. The Lady comes in three sizes with different textures and shades of ruthenium.
“Nothing can be invented, but everything can be revisited with fresh eyes.”
–Marie Grazia Chiuri
Along with its reimagining, The New Lady Dior Campaign spotlights 16 incredible women including Laetitia who have distinguished themselves in art, film, sports, literature, fashion, and music.
“I don’t feel like I have one style and I love to change my personality. I like new things. I like to never be the same person. Dior is really all about femineity, elegance, precision. But you know when I think of Dior, I always think about also memories of cinema. All these films that represent all the cinematic dreams and the elegance of all the actresses. These are my first memories of Dior.” –Laetitia Casta
