Koizumi left modeling in 1989
This date is too early. An official Yves Saint Laurent museum page documents Ariane Koizumi modeling in a Paris fashion show in January 1990.
Full reasoning
The article says Koizumi left modeling in 1989, but there is direct evidence she was still modeling afterward.
An official page from Musée Yves Saint Laurent Paris states that an “Evening ensemble ... [was] worn by Ariane Koizumi during the fashion show for the spring-summer 1990 haute couture collection” in Paris, January 1990. January 1990 is after 1989, so the claim that she had already left modeling in 1989 is incorrect.
This does not rule out that she may have been transitioning out of full-time modeling around that period, but the specific statement that she left modeling in 1989 is contradicted by a documented runway appearance in January 1990.
