Iconic supermodel Cindy Crawford turned 58-years-old on Tuesday.
The Fair Game actress shared a special note to Instagram to mark her birthday with her 8.2M followers.
The catwalk queen was seen blowing out the candles to her very large baby blue cake that read Happy Birthday Cindy on top in white and three gold candles.
The leggy looker from Illinois had on a pale blue shirt and a large gold medallion around her neck as her brunette hair was worn down in soft waves with her makeup done sparingly.
From the reflection in the glass door behind her it was clear she was in a tropical setting as there palm trees swaying in the wind.
The cover girl also shared a flashback photo from the 1990s when she blew out the candles to a Vogue themed 21st birthday cake.
And there was another much older image of her as child in a floral print dress with black Mary Jane shoes next to a big white birthday cake.

‘Grateful for another set of birthday candles – thank you for all the love,’ wrote the star in her caption. The post was liked by Christy Turlington who shared: ‘Happy Birthday to you, my always reliable friend and Super sister!’
And Helena Christensen added, ‘Happy birthday to you beautiful, fun, smart, cool goddess and sweetest friend.’
Molly Sims, Reese Witherspoon, Claudia Schiffer, Paulina Porizkova, Julianne Moore, Sofia Vergara and Jessica Alba also hit the like button.
Though Cindy is well into her fifties, her career is not slowing.
She is now starring in the Donna Karan spring 2024 campaign after landing on the cover of Vogue and starring in the series The Supermodels.
The ad is called In Women We Trust and features many big names from the past.
Crawford is joined by her pals Linda Evangelista, Amber Valletta, Shalom Harlow and Carolyn Murphy.
Also in the campaign are Imaan Hammam, Karlie Kloss and Liya Kebede.
Photographer Annie Leibovitz was behind the camera.
Evangelista talked up Donna’s special touch. ‘Donna believed more in women than anybody,’ Evangelista, 58, said to People on Thursday. ‘You can be whoever you want to be in her clothes.’
Looking back, Linda said: ‘I remember the pep talks before the fashion shows.
‘The backstage felt more personal. She would try to instill this confidence in us, but once you were wearing her clothes, you didn’t need it.

‘Donna’s been part of the milestone moments that I’ve had.’
‘Donna does represent both strength and sensuality,’ Evangelista added. ‘Donna Karan really stood the test of time.’
‘She introduced a new style of power dressing, which celebrated women and their bodies. That was her sweet spot, and it still is,’ Crawford said in a press release.
‘In Women We Trust is such a powerful statement,’ said Valletta in a release about appearing in the campaign. ‘We need more women to lead us into the future because women think differently.’
‘It’s not about the clothes, it’s always been about the woman in the clothes,’ Valletta stated in a press release.
The company describes the Spring 2024 campaign, titled In Women We Trust, as ‘a resounding celebration of the brand’s iconic heritage that now marks a new chapter in both legacy and future.’
It calls the collection ‘a new era of accessible luxury’.
Karan launched her first collection with her namesake label in 1985.

The price range of the collection is $159 to $599.
The new campaign is rolling out on Donna Karan’s social media channels, highlighting the eight women and their individual stories.
The Spring 2024 collection is available globally via the brand’s website and in select retailers.
This comes after Cindy and Linda starred in The Supermodels. The four-part show focused on the top models of the 1990s.
In addition to Cindy and Linda were Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington.
The series was directed by Academy Award winner Roger Ross Williams and Larissa Bills, while it was executive produced by Brian Grazer and Ron Howard’s Imagine Documentaries.
The series premiered on September 20.
Cindy stars in the new Donna Karan spring 2024 campaign. It also features Linda Evangelista , Amber Valletta, Shalom Harlow, Carolyn Murphy, Imaan Hammam, Karlie Kloss and Liya Kebede
She also appeared on the cover of British Vogue with Oprah, Salma Hayek, Kate Moss, Gigi Hadid, Jane Fonda, Miley Cyrus and several other ladies
The logline for the series read, ‘The Supermodels travels back to the 1980s, when four women from different corners of the world united in New York.
‘Already forces in their own right, the gravitas they achieved by coming together transcended the industry itself.
‘Their prestige was so extraordinary that it enabled the four to supersede the brands they showcased, making the names Naomi, Cindy, Linda and Christy as prominent as the designers who styled them.
‘Today, the four supermodels remain on the frontlines of culture through activism, philanthropy and business prowess.
‘As the fashion industry continues to redefine itself – and women’s roles within it – this is the ultimate story of power and how four women came together to claim it, paving the way for those to follow.’
In 2020 the ladies opened up about the show.
Speaking about her new venture, Naomi told MailOnline: ‘My sisters Christy, Linda, Cindy and I are extremely thrilled to share our story with the world and there could be no better partners than Brian Grazer and Ron Howard which is a dream come true to bring it to life, as we knew they would respect and honor our story.
‘We hope our journey seen in the docuseries will encourage, motivate and inspire young people around the world. We look forward to this great adventure ahead with director Barbara Kopple.’
Cindy wrote on her Instagram page: ‘I’m excited to reunite with my friends to both celebrate and examine the way supermodels transcended the traditional perceptions and limits of modeling in the fashion industry through time.
‘With the support of Imagine Documentaries and Academy Award-winning director Barbara Kopple, we plan to explore the dynamic personalities, and shifts in media and culture that helped shape and define this iconic era.’
The Supermodels will take fans back to the 1980s at the start of their modelling careers and document how the four women came together from across the globe and collectively achieved a notoriety that transcended throughout the industry.
The four-part series will also examine the ladies work today, in not only the fashion industry, but activism, philanthropy and business, and how the quartet have blazed a path for the next generation.
Linda said of the series: ‘To finally have the opportunity to tell our story in collaboration with the brilliant team at Imagine, and under the direction of Barbara Kopple, is as exciting for us as we hope it will be for viewers.
‘I would love for people to see this as a celebration of not only our individual stories, but also to the power of friendship, dreams and perseverance.’
While Christy added: ‘ I am looking forward to looking back on this unprecedented time in fashion with these incredible women whom I have grown up with.’
Originally from south London, Naomi established herself among the top three most recognizable and in-demand models of the late 1980s.

The Supermodels, a four-part show about top models of the 1990s, featured Crawford, Evangelista, Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington
The Illinois native landed on the cover of Vogue dozens of times
Just before she turned 16, she was on the cover of British Elle and in 1987, she became British Vogue’s first black cover girl since 1966.
Meanwhile Cindy is said to have featured on around 500 magazine covers and walked for shows including Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Christian Dior, DKNY, and previously, Valentino.
The ladies, alongside fellow super models Claudia Schiffer, Helen Christensen and Carla Bruni reunited on the catwalk in 2017 for the Versace SS18 show at Milan Fashion Week.
Showing the young guns how it was done, fashion’s golden girls brought the show to a stunning climax, after it was opened by Kendall Jenner and model sisters Bella and Gigi Hadid.
The Nineties supermodels walked designer Donatella Versace down the runway to rapturous applause as they paid tribute to her late designer brother Gianni Versace, who was killed in 1997.
On the 20th anniversary of his death, it was a fitting tribute to a man with whom each of the women worked personally during their modelling days.
The women were all dressed in glittering gowns, proving that their supermodel figures were all looking impeccable into their late forties – and early fifties, for some at the time.
