She described the experience as “therapeutic,” especially when it brought back memories of working with friends in the industry who have died, like the designers Lee Alexander McQueen and Azzedine Alaïa. A book released in conjunction with the exhibition features a selection of the fashion photographs that helped enshrine Ms. Campbell as one of the industry’s original supermodels. “It was a time of great fun,"" she said of her early career in the 1980s and 1990s. “It wasn’t about finances, it was about creativity. Nine to five didn’t exist — we were nine to whatever.” ~ THE NY TIMES
