Helena Christensen Tackles the Supermodel Definition

What makes a supermodel super? It’s a word that gets tossed around to describe a different caliber of models, but while there are many brilliant and talented models in the world, a certain few attain the title during their careers.

Helena Christensen breaks it down for us.

su?per?mod?el [soo-per-mod-l]
–noun
“They all had interesting personalities and were fun. They were versatile in their way of posing and expressing themselves. They had a certain depth to them that made you interested in more than just the facade.”

“To be a part of that whole group of girls—at the end of the day, I was there. I did it. I am a million experiences richer.”

Well said, Helena. And there’s a definitive definition for everyone out there. Plus she gives us another supermodel cover for January 2010 along with British Elle!
