Cynthia Ann "Cindy" Crawford is an American model. Her success at modeling made her an international celebrity that has led to roles in television and film, and to work as a spokesperson. In 1995, Forbes magazine named her the highest paid model on the planet. She was named No. 3 on VH1's 40 Hottest Hotties of the 90s and was named one of the "100 Hottest Women of All-Time" by Men's Health. Crawford is known for her trademark mole just above her lip, and has appeared on hundreds of magazine covers throughout her career. During the 1980s and 1990s, Cindy Crawford was among the most popular supermodels, and a ubiquitous presence on magazine covers, runways, and in fashion campaigns. She was repeatedly and frequently featured on the cover of many magazines, including: Vogue, W, People, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Cosmopolitan, and Allure. A partial count in 1998 totalled over 400 appearances. Crawford also appeared in many fashion campaigns during her career, including those for Gianni Versace, Escada, Revlon, and Ink.

The Supermodel Era, Measured in Covers
Cindy Crawford's page quantifies the supermodel era better than any other in this guide: over 400 magazine appearances in a partial count by 1998, covers across Vogue, W, People, Harper's Bazaar, Elle, Cosmopolitan and Allure, runway and campaign work at the center of the industry, and Forbes naming her the highest paid model on the planet in 1995. Numbers like those are why the word supermodel exists — a small group of models in the 1980s and 1990s became international celebrities whose faces sold magazines as reliably as film stars did. Her trademark mole just above her lip is part of that story: a distinguishing feature retained rather than removed became one of the most recognizable details in fashion photography.
The campaign list spans fashion and beauty at the highest level — Gianni Versace and Escada in fashion, Revlon, Maybelline and Clairol in beauty, Omega in watches and Ripley in Chilean retail — which maps the commercial range a top model of her era covered. Television and film roles and spokesperson work followed from the modeling fame, reversing the usual order in this guide, where acting usually comes first and fashion attention second. For her, fashion is the career itself, and blog coverage of what she has been wearing is coverage of an industry figure's own presentation rather than a celebrity borrowing fashion interest.
Becoming and Following Her Coverage
Becoming, her 2015 book about her life and career, co-written with Katherine O'Leary, is the retrospective marker on the page — the point at which a modeling career of that scale becomes a published life story. Her official website and her Instagram, Twitter and Facebook accounts are linked here, with Wikipedia and IMDb for reference, and this page also links onward to the Apparel Search fashion models section for readers whose interest is modeling generally. The fashion blog search collects Apparel Search's posts about the fashion, jewelry and beauty products she has been wearing. In the C index she is the letter's defining model, and the Fashion Blog Celebrities hub opens the full alphabetical guide.
