The Super Models
Limited Docuseries
In the ’80s, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, and Christy Turlington became fashion icons—then transcended their industry by uniting. This is the story of how they claimed their power and shaped the world that followed.
“They were lucky — it’s a rough industry and they navigated and made it through and not just survived it, they conquered it. Especially back then, the fashion industry was known for exploiting women. These women have transcended that, and they should have ownership over their stories.”
Roger Ross Williams
The Super Models
Reuniting four fashion icons
The Super Models travels back to the 1980s when four women from different corners of the world united in New York. Already forces in their own right, the gravitas they achieved by coming together transcended the industry itself. Their prestige was so extraordinary that it enabled the four to supersede the brands they showcased, making the names Naomi, Cindy, Linda and Christy as prominent as the designers who styled them.
Today, the four supermodels remain on the frontlines of culture through activism, philanthropy and business prowess. As the fashion industry continues to redefine itself — and women’s roles within it — this is the ultimate story of power and how four women came together to claim it, paving the way for those to follow.
