MODELS.com TOP 20 SUPERMODEL ICONS (20-11)

11
Liya Kebede

IMG


Paris:
Viva Model Management


Milan:

With that landmark Estee Lauder contract, the one that platformed her in a massive worldwide ad buy alongside Carolyn Murphy and Liz Hurley, previous MODELS.com Cover Girl Liya went global. Since her 2005 US Vogue cover broke ( clients like Oscar de la Renta have kept her career fire burning. F/W07: Estee Lauder S/S08: Tiffany and Co F/W08: Tiffany and Co., Lanvin with Steven Meisel.

Paris:

Milan:

Madrid:

Hamburg:
Mega Model Agency




Fashion's favorite blueblood proves her worth with a steady stream of blue chip campaigns ranging from Burberry to Hermes. And to think this quintessential muse landed in NY almost a decade ago with a shocking nose ring as a signature statement. She's legendary now. F/W07: Anne Klein F/W08: Vera Wang with Steven Meisel, Marc Jacobs with Juergen Teller, Mariella Burani with Paolo Roversi

13
Christy Turlington



Beauty this refined is the definition of timeless and with Maybelline signalling on Christy Turlington's radar once more, expect to see this classic face, literally EVERWHERE in 2007. S/S08: Escada, Chanel eyewear and bags, Roberto Coin F/W08: Escada with Patrick DeMarchelier, Maybelline

Paris:
Marilyn Agency


Barcelona:
Traffic Models


Milan:
d'management group


Hamburg:
Mega Model Agency



15
Carmen Kass



There is a feeling that fashion will always need and that is the ideal of an obscenely rich, ultra-sexy, super-woman pulsing with an almost dismissive beauty. Nobody gives that feeling better than Ms Kass and for that reason she remains one of the most bankable faces (and bodies) in the business right now. Just ask the raft of clients who continue to sign her on as being vital to their brands. FW07: Just Cavalli FW08: Kenzo, Michael Kors


16
Amber Valletta

New York:
DNA Models

London:
Models 1

Paris:
Marilyn Agency



The more womanly she becomes, the more beguiling she grows. Besides she is one the great money machines of modern model times and one can rest assured that her bookings were not inexpensive. Ample proof that when great beauties grow up they acquire a priceless aura. SS06: David Yurman, Lanvin SS08: Stella McCartney with Inez and Vinoodh, Stella McCartney Lingerie, Valentino with Inez and Vinoodh FW08: Dsquared2 with Steven Meisel, Iceberg


17
Isabeli Fontana



Because she is a legendary beauty. Because she is a Brazilian national treasure. Because the career has been a dream.


18
Malgosia Bela



Malgosia Bela reigns as Next's resident icon in between her legacy of fragrance campaigns, cutting edge covers (Self-Service) and blue chip editorials (Vogue Paris) even as she logs a steady body of campaign bookings season after season.


19
Erin Wasson

New York:
IMG

Paris:
IMG Paris



Miss Wasson has emerged out of this decade as the rarest kind of thing. A model of realness. Engaged, interesting and strong Erin Wasson has transcended being a mere mannequin to become a nurturer of new talent (Alexander Wang), a jewelry designer, a style icon and all this while still rocking through her list of contracts and campaigns. We love a long distance runner.

20
Guinevere Van Seenus

New York:
IMG

Paris:
IMG Paris



From Paolo Roversi to Steven Meisel, Guinevere Van Seenus is locked in place as the model photographers find incredibly inspirational. Her body of work could be in an art gallery and as a matter of fact, has done exactly that!
