Fashion industry Broadcast has just released its brand new title, SUPERMODEL ORIGIN. This new, 300-page book is full of iconic images, telling us the stories of many of the most important figures in the world of beauty.

Part of our groundbreaking, 7-part feature film and book series, SUPER NATURAL is a detailed exploration of humankind’s ongoing and ever-changing fascination with the idea of beauty.

Today, most people have a perception of what ‘Supermodel’ means, yet very few have any knowledge of the term’s history. Though many say the Supermodel was born in the 1990s, the idea dates back more than a century.

Upon hearing ‘Supermodel’ many people conjure up the single monikers of “Linda”, “Naomi, “Christy”, or maybe even “Claudia” or “Cindy”.

Millennials might imagine more current memes of what a Supermodel is. ‘Heroin chic’ era stars like Kate Moss in her Calvin Klein ‘Obsession’ ads or today’s reigning Reality TV/social media star Kendall Jenner.
