Photographer Mark Squires shoots these exclusive pics of Wilhelmina New York model, Alexandra Richards, for MODELS.com. Mark is working on 2 special projects coming out in the next year.

Also, check out Alexandra’s V Magazine profile shot by Paul Maffei. If you’re thinking she looks like Patti Hansen, you’re on the money. With her dad in the current LV ads and her mom, one of the biggest of the 70′s supermodels, there’s definitely a fashion/rockstar moment vortexing around Alexandra right about now.

Natasha is Numero’s Naiade. In English, naiad means “A water nymph said to inhabit a river, spring or waterfall.” Ms Poly certainly fits the romantic bill.

Isabeli Fontana, is having one of her best seasons ever for fall/winter 08. Here’s the first of her campaigns, Roberto Cavalli shot by Inez and Vinoodh. Models like Isabeli (mother of 2), Natalia Vodianova (mother of 3) and Stephanie Seymour (mother of 4) prove that motherhood makes these gorgeous creatures more womanly and even more most wanted. Perhaps we’ll be seeing more campaigns like the 2003 Gucci ads with Nadine Willis…

WWD talks to Karl and Donatella about why the 90′s supermodels still hold so much sway over us. The mood of the fall 08 campaigns feels so 1995. Think about this: current American It girl Ali Stephens was 4 years old back in ’95! click here to read the article. All images from WWD
