Natalia Vodianova is one of the nine Supers of The Moment as covered by Vogue US in their traditional models May issue. Being on the very front cover, even if she’s 27-year old and a mother of two three (thank you Irina!) is something remarkable in the fashion world, so tough and exigent with beginners.
Natalia Vodianova’s pictorial, however, is as stunning as her presence on the cover, even if she’s not really one of the models with most ad campaigns and fashion coverage. (the story continues right after the jump! Don’t miss the gallery with Natalia Vodianova’s pictures from Vogue US May 2009!)
She portrays Dovima (Dorothy Virginia Margaret Juba, Avedon’s muse), Veruschka (Vera Gottliebe Anna Grafin), Lauren Hutton, Suzy Parker (Cecilia Ann Renee Parker, Coco Chanel’s favorite), Marisa Berenson, Twiggy (Lesley Hornby, Diana Vreeland’s perfection), Jean Patchett, Penelope Tree, Jean Shrimpton.
All nine mighty ladies of fashion impersonated by Natalia! How she pulled them all off (well, besides Lauren Hutton’s gap in the teeth)? By studying their mouth expression! She looks great, the pictures look great and I’d say this is one Vogue issue to absolutely buy! What do you say? (photos via tfs)

Wow that is a lovely and interesting layout! I really enjoy looking at it and I will have to get the issue so I can check it out.
I love all the different portrayals of the different iconic models. Natalia Vodianova did a stellar job and she is lovely. :)
WOW
Natalia Vodianova rulez!
As she was married to Justin Portman, her carreer was almost over, after a short time of modeling. What surprised me the most was that Mrs. Vodianovo always could be seen on covers, in some ads etc. But actually was never an Super or Topmodel. I liked her from the beginning and now my critics, these days she looks skinnier then ever before during her short modeling career. I got a few pics were she was wearing stirrups in Paris during shopping time and my immediatly thoughts were this can’t be a mother of two kids and already 28 years old. She looked like an 16 year old. Nothing shocking I know but her skinny and behaviour made me think.
How many pages this May issue has please?
And just one thing…. please, can someone send me an invitation for thefashionspot.com? I am waiting for months for an invitaion… :(
A small correction- Natalia Vodianova has 3 children, not 2 as stated in the article.
Irina, your totally right, she has 3 kids. It was a little bit confusing when my dearest Kpriss wrote 2 in the article. But remember Kpriss and also I arent neighboors of her estate in England. And what is most important, with so many models around getting baby’s it’s difficult to know how many they have, look to Heidi Klum okay it’s wellknown that she is pregnant, so it will be her fourth child, but who cares about the kids of lesser wellknown models?
