BHBC The Crew Edition: Grace Jones and the First Black Supermodels - Day 13

Day 13: Grace Jones and the First Black Supermodels

People will tell you she doesn’t make the cut. 

She wasn’t a true supermodel. Too androgynous. Too loud. Not pretty enough. Her own boyfriend said she had a grotesque beauty. Boy bye. 

Yet, Grace Jones somehow made it from the pews of a holiness church in Jamaica to bearing her gorgeous body on the cover of magazines and being a muse to musicians, painters, and culture makers for decades. 

So, when we found a picture of Grace Jones laughing with Iman and Beverly Johnson, we knew we had to celebrate their crew of Black models. 

Join us for the juice.
