The fashion industry is notorious for being slow on the uptake when it comes to embracing and promoting models of color, even though recently there have been a slew of rising faces with the potential to challenge that notion — Chanel Iman, Jourdan Dunn, and Joan Smalls to name a few.
But when it comes to instant recognition and true ‘Super’ status, there are few in the game who can even begin to touch the legend that is Naomi Campbell. With over 25 years in the industry under her belt, the sometimes controversial yet always fabulous Miss Campbell is still giving good face, working the pages of the March 2012 issue of Harper’s Bazaar.
As the article accompanying the editorial states, and her photos are a testament to, it’s clear why the industry still needs Naomi. But after such a successful career, why would Naomi still need fashion? She tells the mag:
“I still love what I do,” she says. “It’s a new challenge to see how people can change your look. I like words like transformation, reinvention, and chameleon.” She lets out a laugh, adding, “because one word I don’t like is predictable.”
U-N-T-O-U-C-H-A-B-L-E
YES!!!!!
This coke whore still looks better than most females half her age. Such is the irony of life.
My friend just met a chocolate man on Blackwhitemeet.COMit’s where for men and women looking for interracial’ship for a fabulous lifestyle
It’s a nice place for black white sing’les, to interact with each other…no bounds or extremes in front of true love.
but does she have any hair…?
HI HATER!
DOES IT REALLY MATTER ? WOW
…she’s screwing a billionaire…i doubt she gives a damn..
Naomi is sooo beautiful!:)
CHILD WHO CARES! This woman could be bald and she beautiful!!!!! Moon shine and all, lol!
She can buy all the hair she needs.
Yes she does, even though it may not cascade from her head like Rapunzel. What has happened to her is due her never-ending work schedule for more than 25 years and constantly changing her hair to fit the briefs and demands of the designers/photographers.
It still stands thst she is an extremely beautiful woman. The presence or absence of hair is not the be all and end all of one’s physical beauty. It’s in the face. You only have to look at other women in the public eye who have shaved their heads to see that their beauty has remained intact, despite chopping their locks (Natalie Portman and Solange Knowles, to name just a couple).
Could not have said it better myself!
Sinead O’connor in her prime. Annie Lennox from the Eurythmics.
All this to say she’s bald….really?
@RD no one knows that’s she’s bald. There are pics that her edges are gone. What we are saying is that it takes more than hair to be beautiful.
SMH I LOVE A BAD BITCH!!! NO MATTER WHAT HATERS GOT TO SAY SHE IS THAT BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS REALLY PUTTING A LOT OF THESE CHICKS TO SHAME!!!!!!
Naomi is the ysh. No other supermodel can touch her! Just a bad, bad biotch!
She’s immortal.
But in regards to her hair, its traction alopecia, the constant rubbing from all of the various weaves and hair treatments have caused the hair on the edges to fall out. If she took a break from the weave for a while, it MAY grow back.
But regardless, she is still amazing, and despite her drama, people still use her simply because she is the most super of supermodels.
Well said. And just to say since she probably won’t retire she won’t stop with the weaves etc anytime soon because it’s the business of beauty to be a chameleon and the industry does all kinds of things to the hair to acheive a look. Love her!
til she take that hair off and you see them ate up edges
You mad huh? _/
ANDDDDDD….? Please refer to I.D. above your post. They said it all flawlessly.

Naomi Campbell does actually look good for her age, HOWEVER! the photoshop on these pics are not serious are we supposed to believe that she actally looks like this NO! she looks good but not 20 years younger… I’d much rather see these same pics with none or very little airbrushing… Its not about hating… its my oppinion.
Airbrushing is very costly. She would require very litte which is why she is highly sought an paid well. You need only look at footage of her when she was on Oprah where you cannot airbrush to know this woman is a phenom…
