Throwback Revlon–This Thursday we pay homage to the 1980s with a look at Revlon’s cosmetics advertisements from the era of big hair and even bolder fashion. With a tagline that read “The most unforgettable women in the world wear Revlon,” it certainly stands out as an iconic moment in beauty with the legendary Richard Avedon capturing the campaign images. Supermodels including Christy Turlington, Beverly Johnson, Cindy Crawford, Jerry Hall and Iman were featured in the advertisements. Discover more flashback Revlon photographs below!
