When your first modeling gig is a spread in Vogue, it's pretty safe to say you're going to make it big. And was that ever the case for Iman. The Somalian supermodel, with gams that won't stop and some of the nicest skin in the biz, has taken the fashion world by storm since she got her start at 21. Although she has graced the cover of just about every major magazine, don't think that this lady is just a pretty face -- she is also an actress, entrepreneur, pioneer in the field of ethnic cosmetics and a noted humanitarian. Oh, and we can't fail to mention that she bagged one of the biggest pop icons of all time -- David Bowie?
In this 1990 photograph, we see Iman with her husband of 20 years. Bowie is clad in a classic '90s look, a turtleneck worn underneath a suit, while Iman flaunts her enviable figure in a tight LBD. We love how the duo chose to color coordinate (black and grey of course!), though Iman's dark red lipstick is really stealing the show. She may have found the perfect shade for Valentine's Day.
