The Beauty of Retrospect: Four Nancys

For this Leap Day, February 29, which comes once every four years, I offer four pictures of four different models from the 1980s - all of them named Nancy.  (And their surnames all happen to begin with the letter D.)


Above is Nancy Decker, one of the loveliest and most overlooked beauties from the modeling profession in the 1980s.  The Wisconsin-born Ms. Decker was with the Elite agency in the early part of the decade, and she did numerous ads and editorials. 


Above, in a sexy gold lamé dress, is Nancy DeWeir, who, in addition to doing many editorials and magazine covers, was a regular in cosmetics ads as well.
   

Next we have the timelessly beautiful Nancy Donahue, as evidenced from the recent picture above.  She turned 65 last February, but passing the "senior" threshold hasn't left a mark on her or slowed her down.  As a friend of hers, I ought to know. 💕 
  

Finally, this is Nancy Dutiel, who in the late seventies and early eighties, was the face of Lancôme in the United States.  This image, in fact was taken from a Lancôme TV commercial.  She did more than a few of those, but I've only found one on YouTube so far.   

I love Leap Day. 😊

For March, I'm going to take a break from new subjects and feature . . . more retrospectives!  Be back soon.
