As a frontrunner of the rising supermodel takeover that occurred in the '80s, Elle Macpherson has graced the world's top magazines and runways over the past 30 years. Born Eleanor Nancy Gow on this day in , the Australian model was first discovered on a family ski trip in the early '80s, kickstarting her career. Perhaps best known for her nickname, The Body, Macpherson was one of the first models to capitalize off her image, spawning a brand portfolio ranging from skincare to lingerie. From supermodel stardom to savvy and successful businesswoman, CR celebrates Macpherson's birthday with a visual diary of the Aussie stunner's younger years in the industry. Macpherson's birth name is actually Eleanor Nancy Gow, however, due to a clerical mistake at her primary school, her surname was inadvertently changed to her stepfather's surname. In the early '80s, when Macpherson was making her big break into the editorial side of the industry, she met French fashion photographer Gilles Bensimon, who lensed this photo. The pair married in and worked together throughout their careers, despite divorcing in Macpherson's girl-next-door image set her apart from the other models of the '80s, although she would soon grow into her bombshell status later in her career. Before modeling, Macpherson was a law student at Sydney University.
