Jerry Hall (born July 2, 1956) was a breakout supermodel in the 1970s, known for her tall, statuesque figure, striking blonde hair, long legs, sharp bone structure, and glamorous, rock 'n' roll style. She was discovered as a teenager on a beach in Saint-Tropez and moved to Paris, where she quickly rose to fame.
Her defining feature was a massive mane of long, honey-blonde hair, typically styled in voluminous, cascading waves or dramatic side-swept curls that perfectly caught the lights of the runway or Studio 54. Standing at six feet tall, Hall popularized a tall, athletic, and athletic-yet-curvaceous silhouette. She effortlessly carried the fluid, draped designs of the decade.
As a fixture of the New York nightlife scene, her personal style was heavily intertwined with disco culture. She frequently wore slinky metallic dresses, silk halters, high-waisted trousers, and bold satin pieces by designers like Halston and Yves Saint Laurent.
She became a primary muse for fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez, designer Thierry Mugler, and rock stars alike, most notably Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music (appearing on their iconic 1975 Siren album cover as a blue mermaid) and later Mick Jagger, whom she met in 1976.
By the late 1970s, she had appeared on dozens of Vogue and Cosmopolitan covers, cementing the transition into the golden age of the jet-setting supermodel.
