QuoteSara Kapp is a model who may not be a household name to many, but to insiders in the modeling trade, she's just as big a star as Naomi Campbell or Cindy Crawford.
Ms. Kapp was at the height of her career in the seventies and the eighties, appearing in ads for clothing and cosmetics.
She was also a huge favorite in runway shows.
In the 1980s, Sara Kapp was the exclusive model for the Princess Marcella Borghese cosmetics brand, and her face appeared in numerous upscale department stores as a result. The pictures at the Borghese counter were enlarged and back-illuminated like photos at any other cosmetics counter, but Sara Kapp didn't need any of that to appear larger than life. She already was.
