Oh Naomi!

say what you will about Ms. Campbell but she can do no wrong to me.  it's like this article i read about her where it said that she can burn your house down and basically cause a shit storm that all but ruins your entire existence but all she has to do is flash that light beaming smile and it's like all is forgiven.  the power of a supermodel named Naomi Campbell i guess .....


my inaugural i-D magazine which had of course Ms. Campbell on the cover.  it was 1996 and i bought it during a lazy but very "fashion-friendly discovery" summer for me (when i all i did was read and re-read fashion magazines and draw endless little doodles from them).  i think i got the issue from this corner store on denman and nelson near my apartment that somehow seemed to sell all these high fashion glossies - albeit next to the porn and soap digest magazines.  just one of those covers that sticks with me forever ....


Vogue, June, 1993.  to me just a beautiful, warm, and inviting Vogue cover - the way it really should be but sadly isn't anymore ...
