Slipping into a pair of red stiletto heels, Cindy looked just as good as she did in 1992 as she displayed toned arms, long legs and very small waistline in the tiny shorts and low-scoop vest. 

The shoot was set at the Halfway House Cafe, where Cindy shot the famous commercial. Two wolves sat in the retro supercar as Cindy fuelled up on gas.  

Crawford shared what the new Pepsi experience was like. 'It’s always a pleasure and a thrill to work with my friend @davidyarrow,' began the Versace model.

'And even more so when it's for a good cause. We returned back to the original Halfway House from the famous @pepsi commercial I did in 1992 to recreate the moment (with a David Yarrow twist) in hopes of raising funds for the American Family Children’s Hospital in Madison Wisconsin where my brother was treated for leukemia.'

Crawford was born in DeKalb, Illinois, and raised with her two sisters, Chris and Danielle. Their brother Jeffery died of childhood leukemia at age three. 

Cindy continued: 'So far, with the help of David's gallery network across the globe supporting the art and its sales -- we've already raised 1 million dollars for the cause.'

Important cause: Crawford  wants to raise funds to help the hospital where her late brother Jeffery was treated for childhood leukemia. He tragically died aged three

She then credited the members of her glam squad.

'I also have to thank my dear friend, hairstylist @peter.savic who did the iconic hair for the original commercial... so i was thrilled he was able to be here for this version as well!' said the wife of Rande Gerber.

'Thanks also to @samvissermakeup for makeup and @allowitzstyles for styling. I think we nailed it! Such a fun day –– I can't wait to show you more. More on stories xo.' 

Stars praised her move. Reese Witherspoon said, 'Truly gorgeous ! And for a great cause ❤️.' Helena Christensen said, '❤️cool in every way.'

Cindy 1992: She looked young and slender as she was at the very top of the modeling business
Cindy 2002: The supermodel recreated the ad in 2002
Cindy 2018: The pinup was more covered up for this ad as she wore a blue denim shirt

Thrice before: Cindy seen far left in 1992, then in another ad in 2002 and on the far right she is seen in 2018

The winner? Some say that Cindy looked her very best in the original 1992 ad while others prefer a more mature Crawford

The original featured Crawford in a tank top and jean shorts - made from her own jeans she brought to the set that day - driving a Lamborghini and stopping at a rural gas station to buy a can of soda. 

Two young boys in a nearby field can be seen watching on in awe and amazement as the beauty guzzles the can in one go. 

'It was one of those moments in my career that when I walked down the street, people were like, "Pepsi!" Or I'd be at a bar and people would send me over a Pepsi,' Crawford said, laughing. 'And it's funny because during Halloween a lot of women will dress up as me in that commercial. It's like an easy Halloween costume.' 

In the 2018 ad she was with her son Presley Walker Gerber who was a teen at the time. 

Crawford also appeared in an an ad for Diet Pepsi in 2002, where she drove to the same gas station, this time dressed in a tight white blouse and jean shorts, driving a white Jeep.   

Crawford's modeling talents have not only extended to her son - her daughter, Kaia Jordan Gerber, is also a top model.

What are the symptoms of leukaemia in children?

Fatigue and pale skin - this is because leukaemia can cause anaemia which makes a child feel weak, tired and light-headed.

Infections and fever - children with leukaemia lack normal white blood cells which would normally help fight infection.

Rash - children may have small, dark spots that look like common rashes if the leukemia cells spread to the skin   

Easy bruising or bleeding - this includes frequent nosebleeds, bleeding gums and bleeding a lot from small cuts.

Bone or joint pain - this is caused by a build up of leukaemia cells near the surface of the bone or inside the joint.

Swelling of the abdomen - leukaemia cells may collect in the liver and spleen causing them to enlarge.

Loss of appetite and weight loss - if the spleen and liver swell, they can press against the stomach causing loss of appetite.

Swollen lymph nodes - some leukaemias spread to the lymph nodes causing them to swell.
