"She is a fashion icon. She knows herself so well, it's as if she's looking at herself through the camera and moving accordingly."
Michael Thompson
"C'est (Linda) une faiseuse d'images. Elle se projette, sans jamais se mettre à la place du photographe."
Dominique Issermann, French Elle, 2003
“She’s extraordinarily beautiful and extraordinarily photogenic, and she…she…sparkles in front of the camera. I don’t know how else to say it. When she smiles, it’s very inspiring for me.”
Steven Meisel
“No one models with more conviction than Linda. Her secret, I think, is that she has never been bored by modeling, and never seen it as a stepping stone to another career.”
Anna Wintour
“She’s like an instrument. She’s a kind of Stradivarius. You can play her like you can play no other instrument. She’s strong and at the same time flexible. She’s tough and very touching, and that’s the secret of her success.”
Karl Lagerfeld
“Linda probably loves modeling more than anyone I know. That’s why we all love looking at pictures of her.”
