“I never even thought about modeling,” Crawford, 57, admitted in the 25-second clip that begins with a photo of the supermodel from the 1980s when she first began her career.
“I didn’t even know it was a real job. I didn’t know how I would get from DeKalb, Illinois, to a magazine,” Crawford said as she sat in a white director’s chair, dressed casually in a black dress and matching leather jacket.
The clip then cuts to footage of Crawford performing commercial work in the ’80s. “My dad really didn’t understand that modeling was a real career,” she said. “He thought modeling was like another name for prostitution. So they came with me to my very first modeling appointment.”
“As the fashion industry continues to redefine itself – and women’s roles within it – this is the ultimate story of power and how four women came together to claim it, paving the way for those to follow,” explains apress releasefor the series.
