Gorgeous Supermodels By Arthur Elgort (8 Photos)

Cindy Crawford singing Country Western in Cheyenne Wyoming, 1989

It's great to see supermodels like Cindy and Christie making a resurgence. Sure they had to wait over a decade before they were in style again but now we welcome them back with open arms. Industry experts say that their return can be explained by the fact that designers are keen to appeal to older women with more disposable income given the sour economy. Whatever the case, it's nice to see curves again.

Arthur Elgort is known for photographing the world's most beautiful women for Vogue Magazines around the world. Born and raised in New York City, he began taking pictures while studying painting. Realizing that he was too sociable for the lonely life of a painter, he began capturing his friends on film. Lucky for us (and him), his friends were gorgeous supermodels.
