Chutih lai chuan naupang mai an ni a, a tak takah chuan, thawmhnaw pawh hian awmzia a nei lo; tunah chuan kum 50 vel an ni tawh a, chutiang bawkin (Chhiaparelli gown in jersey, Christy-i hmangaih em em chu tih loh chu).
Look cool ber, downbeat ber pawh—jeans leh Bottega Veneta tana superhot Matthieu Blazy-a tank—chu paradoxically-in savun a siam a ni. Chu chu ui kalpui hunah engtin nge a thawh? Mahse, ngaihtuah ngai suh. Hengte hi Supers an ni a, eng look pawh an nei thei a, gamely takin Madonna leh Lauper hmasa soundtrack-ah an sa dun thei a, an taksa tak tak nena inmil lo tak tak shape siam nan chauh light an man thei a, chutih lai chuan subtly coaching the young, rising-star photographer Rafael Pavarotti chuan thawmhnaw che vel dan tha ber ber a sawi. Take inkar ah monitor te an check thin; “bossy ladies” (Cindy’s term) an nih avangin siamthatna an pe thin.
Naomi hian a kekawrte chu a bânsan ngai lo, a costar-te kekawr bul lo an awm lai pawhin. Inpekna lama master class a ni. Mahse, mahni nun back-to-the-future version-a awm chu a va mak tak em! Tin, chu aia mak zawk chu, i naturally, by any gauge, gorgeous i nih laiin mawi taka awm tura hna thawkin nun i hmang tawh a ni. Kum sawm tam tak chhunga an lo hre vek tawh Edward Enninful-a’n 30 Rock episode pakhat, Tina Fey-i character-in mipa (Jon Hamm-a chang) hmeltha em em, a hriat lohvin special treatment leh privilege bubble-a cheng a date-na chu charming takin a reference a, chu Cindy a ni a, literal takin mawina chu a brand-ah a siam a, hriatthiamnaah a nuih hmasa ber a ni.
Oh, mahse chu bubble chu a ruihthlak hle. Engtin nge a puak darh a, kum sawmthum chuang zet a liam hnuah pawh khawvel a hip chhunzawm zel chhan chu tunah chuan documentary ṭhen li awmna, The Super Models tih thupui a ni ta a, September 20 hian Apple TV+-ah a tlangzarh dawn a ni. Brian Grazer leh Ron Howard-te Imagine Entertainment-a Roger Ross Williams leh Larissa Bills-te direct a ni a, he series hian broad leh fine stroke-ah ’80s tawp lam atanga ’90s laihawl thlenga style community thlalak a rawn tarlang a, chutih lai chuan high fashion chu niche aṭangin a kal ta a ni hobby for aspirational clothes hounds to a pillar of mainstream entertainment film, television, leh music bula ding.
Grazer chuan a characteristic offhand foresight hmangin, “Hei hi cultural moment, singularly important lo tak a nih thu hi ka tlu mai niin ka hria,” a ti. He inthlak danglamna lairil ber chu Christy, Naomi, Cindy leh Linda te an ni a, tleirawl pali leh tleirawl tlemte chauh an ni a, an thil hmuhnawm tak tak, born-with-it confidence, quick wit, intuitive style, intense curiosity, leh utterly bananas work ethic te inzawmkhawmna hmuh tur awm lo tak takte an ni industry tan switch chu a flip ta a ni.
Tin, light pawh a thi ngai lo. He series bakah hian a star pali (Christy: “Engvangin nge kan chanchin hi eng emaw chen kan thunun loh ang?”) te siam a ni a, documentary tam zawk siamnaah hian a awm a, Linda leh Steven Meisel te hian lehkhabu pakhat an nei bawk an seminal collaboration te chu thla leha Phaidon atangin an chhuak dawn a ni. Supers lar tak takte red carpet looks kha tunah chuan Gen Z star-te chuan an ha tawh a; an hmel chu billboard atang chuan a tla thla a (Fendi’s Kim Jones: “Campaign-ah dah la, an hralh!”). Compulsive takin an fascinating reng a ni. Heng zawng zawng hi ngaihtuah chungin Supermodel bubble atanga dispatch thenkhat kan rawn tarlang e.
Here’s the point: House of Style model roundtable-a Naomi naupang tak maiin industry-a hnam inthliarna chungchang a sawi lai en hian; Linda-i’n Meisel-i nena an siam fo ṭhin portfolio-te cinematic intensity leh complexity a tawn leh chuan; Christy-i Calvin Klein hmel ni tura a fingzia emaw, MTV medium thar hmanga a khawvel star leh chronicler ni thei tura Cindy-i fingzia emaw ngaihtuah chuan thawk chhuak thei lovin a awm ta a ni. Hengte hi rock star move an ni. Tin, chuti chung pawh chuan, chi inthliarna chungchang sawi chhuah theihna perspicacity an neih laiin, an wing bawk a, naupangte chauh an ni.
Linda platinum-a chantir hmasa ber sam siamtu Garren-a chuan heti hian a sawi: “George Michael video shoot hma zan khan a pum pui chu kan bleach vek a. Vanlawng a chuan lai chuan: ‘Tunge ka nih ka hre lo, mahse ka tlak hmain ka chhui chhuak ang.’ ”
