After perusing a fabulous coffee table book, “Vogue: The Covers,” I became inspired by not only the 100+ years of beautiful covers, but the illustrations and models featured on each one.

Aside from the gorgeous covers, reading the book exposed me to the classic and memorable models from the 1940’s – 1970’s. It was fabulous to learn about past models who have covered the historic magazines. Who are you favorite models from the 20th century?
