This “First American Supermodel” defies time, embracing her wrinkles and natural beauty at 77. See how this iconic figure has evolved through the decades, from her early days on magazine covers to her graceful presence today.

In her earlier years, this model was the epitome of all-American beauty, with a career that skyrocketed her to international fame. Known for her groundbreaking work in the fashion industry, she set new standards, paving the way for many who followed in her footsteps.

At the age of 17, the model made her mark by gracing the cover of Glamour magazine. While most models face the end of their careers in their early 30s, she defied the odds.

At 31, Time magazine celebrated her as the quintessential All-American model, a rare acknowledgment that solidified her status as a cultural icon. However, her journey in the modeling world didn’t stop there.

She continued to captivate audiences with her timeless beauty and charm, even appearing in Sports Illustrated’s famous swimsuit issue for the fourth time in 1996.

Her appearances in this iconic issue were followed by appearances by other well-known models, including Gigi Hadid and Tyra Banks. Just a few years later, this All-American supermodel appeared on the cover of More magazine in December 2000.
