18 years since her first appearance on the cover of the iconic Vogue, Cindy Crawford has proved that she is still one of the sexiest women in the world. After the long break she is making the most spectacular comeback in January issue of Vogue magazine - 38 and looking great.

It is the eighth time that Crawford poses for Vogue’s cover. Inside the recent edition, which hits the stores Monday, January 10th, she appears in one of her sexiest ever fashion spreads wearing a see-through top, micro-mini and gold swimsuit slashed to the navel.

The career of Cindy Crawford, nee Cynthia Ann Crawford, started in 1982 after she won the Elite Look of the Year. She then shot to fame becoming one of the most recognized stars along with Naomi Campbell and Linda Evangelista. Besides catwalk modeling, Crawford has held endorsement contracts with the likes of Omega and Revlon. She has also tired her hand at acting and owns a line of age-defying skincare called Meaningful Beauty.

Cindy is now married to businessman Rande Gerber and is a mother of two kids, three-year-old Kaya and five-year-old Presley.

“It’s fantastic to have Cindy on the cover again,” says Vogue editor Alexandra Shulman. “It’s the ultimate pinup girl doing pinup pictures.”
