She is one of the original 90s supers. That shock of blonde hair, that smile, those legs. There is a reason why the German model's career went as far as it did, and secured her a place by Karl Lagerfeld's side at Chanel for so many years, landed her the longest standing contract with L'Oreal Paris in history, and became the muse of so many designers during the height of her career. On and off the runway, there was seldom a moment when Schiffer wasn't perfectly dressed for an occasion. It helped that almost every designer of note wanted her in their clothes, but remember, the 90s were an era that pre-dated the personal stylist, so the below looks are all her. Here, we round up some of Claudia Schiffer's most iconic looks from the 90s.
