I was looking through Benjamin Kanarek’s archives again and I found another Gem with this fashion editorial featuring Adriana Sklenarikova Karembeu photographed for L’Officiel Paris from 1995.

Adriana is known for having the longest known legs of any model at almost 50 inches (125cm). She appeared in the Guinness Book of Records (European edition) in 1998 as “The model with the longest legs in the world”. Just after Eva Herzigova, she became the new face and breasts for Wonderbra in the 90′s. She married and divorced the French soccer player Christian Karembeu who was a major player in the French team that won the 1998 World Cup.

She was a member of the jury chosen by Alain Delon for the Miss France 2013 election.
