We wonder how much the fabulously feisty glamazon who once said, "We don't wake up for less than $10,000 a day," (often misquoted as "we don't get out of bed for...") charged Miuccia Prada to front her latest autumn/winter 08 campaign? Dressed in black lace inspired by the scary Mrs Danvers from the 1940 film noir classic, Rebecca, Linda E announces her modeling comeback.In her heyday she was known along with Naomi Campbell and Christy Turlington, as The Trinity. Streamlined body, pin head, perfectly symmetrical face and the ability to re-invent herself quicker than Madonna, the Canadian-born Italian Evangelista looks, at 43, as cool as she did in George Michael's Freedom video in 1990... arguably her finest fashion moment.
