The Charlie Girls


In 1990, supermodel Linda Evangelista signed on as Revlon's newest Charlie Perfume Girl. The Charlie perfume commercial Linda appeared in was a kind of homage to the sensational Shelley Hack/ Bobby Short commercial from 1976. In fact, clips from the original were used in the 1990 version. A supermodel in an homage to another supermodel, WOW. Watch them both on YouTube...
