Supermodel Claudia Schiffer became the heroine of the March issue of the German version of Vogue magazine. The 53-year-old '90s catwalk star appeared on the cover with her cat Chip, who co-stars in her husband Matthew Vaughn's new film Argyle. In an interview, Claudia spoke about family life and the evolution of the modeling industry.

A native of Germany, Claudia Schiffer became the heroine of German Vogue more often than other models, but she did not appear on the cover for more than six years. Today, the muse of Karl Lagerfeld and other designers sometimes returns to work and accepts invitations to participate in cover shoots and advertising campaigns.

Claudia Schiffer has been married to British director Matthew Vaughn for almost 22 years and has three children, whom she kept away from the press until they came of age. The star’s eldest children, 21-year-old Kaspar and 19-year-old Clementine, despite their significant modeling potential, do not yet plan to follow in their mother’s footsteps and lead a private lifestyle.

The family lives a surprisingly ordinary life in the English countryside. Working together with her husband in a shared office, playing sports and wellness treatments, as well as spending conscious time with family - this is what characterizes Schiffer's daily life.

Mattel recently released a new Barbie doll that is based on Claudia's appearance at the Versace show in 1994. Schiffer notes that people are nostalgic for the nineties and the main era of supermodels for a reason.

"In general, I think people love the Nineties because there are a lot of parallels between that time and today's generation. Fashion can be provocative and create real change. We crossed a lot of boundaries back then with the 'supermodel' image: becoming famous people and "They were successful on their own. It was new and it opened the door for the next generation - and then they took it to the next level. I think it's very interesting now to know how all this happened back then - in the era before social media."

Claudia admitted that she is not nostalgic for the times when her career was at its peak and lives for today. The model does not strive to be in the center of events and compete with the new generation.

"There was a huge explosion of creativity back then, a lot of talented photographers, stylists, hairdressers and makeup artists were born; a lot of people in this industry in some sense grew up with us. But I'm not nostalgic in the sense that I wish I could go back to that time, because I love my life today. I have lived an incredible life and I am very happy that I have all these wonderful memories. We didn't understand what was happening back then. We were in the middle of it. There was a time when models were like movie stars, we were at the forefront of everything. This has never happened in the modeling industry."

Today, models have access to many different tools for career development and more rights to be heard thanks to social networks. Contemporary values ​​are also safer for aspiring models who may raise concerns about inappropriate behavior, for example, and have their voices heard.

"The industry has modernized with things like digital media and e-commerce that didn't exist back then. It's a very different experience today than in the nineties. Models today can have multi-level careers because they have access to a huge global audience through social media .They have power and control over their images, voices and values, which I admire.In those days, to show who you were, what you were worth or what you believed in, you had to do a lot of interviews or appear on the cover to get noticed and remembered. Today you can achieve this much faster if you have access to the digital world."
