As one of the original supermodels, Christy Turlington Burns has a legacy that few can compete with: being a part of seminal collections, becoming a muse for the biggest designers, and sharing the spotlight with some of the best models fashion has ever seen. In the years since her runway retirement, Turlington Burns has become known for her roles as documentarian, maternal health activist, and Apple Watch spokeswoman, but her ’90s catwalk heyday is unforgettable. A favorite of icons like Calvin Klein and Karl Lagerfeld, as well as now-defunct labels like Claude Montana and Todd Oldham, Turlington Burns made her way down every runway that mattered. A comprehensive take on the Turlington Burns allure would require several hours’ worth of footage and hundreds of pictures, but these are some of the superstar’s most memorable runway moments from the Style.com archives.
