Forbes magazine recently released the latest list of the world’s most highly paid models. Number 3 on the list, who continues to dominate the rankings year after year is supermodel English beauty Kate Moss.

She is no mere model anymore, or for that matter, simply an icon. Kate Moss is an industry now and quite a money machine. The impressive thing about this achievement is that she has managed to become a financial powerhouse while remaining a global superpower brand in the fashion modeling industry.

Kate Moss is a fashion world double threat, landing rich modeling and designing jobs. Earnings over the last year were approximately $13.5 million, thanks in part to a lucrative design deal with the United Kingdom’s TopShop.

Gisele Bundchen Is Soon To Become The World’s First Billionaire Model

According to Forbes Magazine, Gisele Bundchen is soon to become the world’s first billionaire model. Over the course of the last ten years Gisele has made approximately $215 million for her modeling work and campaigns. These ventures along with her various real estate investments are very likely to bring the model to the billionaire mark. It is safe to say that Gisele Bundchen puts the SUPER in supermodel.
When Gisele Bundchen comes to mind, many of us remember her as the drop-dead gorgeous Victoria’s Secret Angel. Gisele is without a doubt all of the above, but is also recognized as the face of many major designers, including Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana, Blvgari, and Christian Dior. Her most recent campaigns for H&M, Versace, and Inpanema flip-flop line are the most current major contributors to her rapidly growing income. In Brazil, she also has her own lingerie line in partnership with Hope called “Gisele Bundchen Brazilian Intimates” and a skincare line “Seeja Pure Skincare”.

Gisele’s modeling career began at age 14 in Sao Paulo, Brazil when she was discovered by an agency at a shopping mall in 1994. She grew up in Horizontina, Rio Grande do Sul, a town in the backcountry of Brazil mainly populated by German-Brazilians like herself. Originally, Gisele wanted to become a professional volleyball player and was often teased in school for being so skinny. Little did they know what the future had in store for the slender, blue-eyed, 14 year-old girl of Horizontina. After placing 2nd in the national contest and 4th in the world contest of Elite Look of the Year, Gisele left the backcountry and moved to New York City in 1996 to begin her modeling career.
1999 was an explosive year for Gisele’s modeling career as she appeared on the cover of Vogue Magazine July, November, and December and was voted VH1’s Vogue Model of the Year. In 2000 she appeared on the cover of Vogue Magazine yet again for three consecutive months and on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine naming her “the most beautiful girl in the world”. Since then Gisele’s face has graced the covers of hundreds of top fashion magazines, such as Elle, W, and Allure, as well as broader publications like GQ, TIME, Vanity Fair, and Forbes Magazine. Featured in over 600 magazines world-wide, it is no wonder Gisele has established herself as an international icon. The versatile supermodel has starred in advertising campaigns anywhere from Nivea Lotion to Christian Dior.
After acknowledging Gisele’s endless achievements it is no surprise that from 2009-2010 she earned an estimated 25 million making her the top earning supermodel and one of the most powerful celebrities in the world. Gisele uses her success and power to also give back to the world and is involved in numerous charity activities, including the I Am African Campaign helping to protect against HIV/AIDS, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and is a goodwill ambassador for UN Environment Programme, to name a few. Supermodel or billionaire, Gisele Bundchen’s modeling career, success, and charity involvement is very inspiring.

Monika Jagaciak’s big break came at age 13 when she signed a Hermes ad campaign. She had never heard of Hermes prior to winning. She has been through controversy due to her young age. In 2010, she appeared in Valentino, Chanel Beauty, and Marc Jacobs ad campaigns. Watch as she gets her makeup done with a big red lip at Missoni and dramatic smoky eyes at Roberto Cavalli.

Monika Jagaciak’s modeling career began in 2007 after she was encouraged by her sister to attend an open casting call at a shopping center in Poland. She was then signed in July 2007 and she appeared on the cover of French Jalouse. Her big break came at age 13 when Monika Jagaciak went on to land a Hermes campaign for the Fall/Winter 2007 season alongside modeling star Daria Werbowy beating out 600 other candidates while still in primary school. Monika Jagaciak stated in a later interview that before doing the campaign she had never heard of Hermes, nor had she heard of the photographer of the shoot Peter Lindbergh. “I think not knowing helped me stay relaxed” she said. Soon after, Monika Jagaciak began traveling overseas for her career and in 2008 she traveled to Japan where she landed the cover of Elle Magazine. In May 2008 she appeared for the second time on the cover of French Jalouse, and in October 2008 Monika Jagaciak also landed covers for Japanese Harper’s Bazaar and Japanese Spur. Since then Monika Jagaciak has shot editorials for magazines such as Numero, Japanese Vogue, Vogue Paris, and Vogue Italia. However, Monika Jagaciak had to sit out fashion shows, due to age regulations.

After waiting 2 years, at 15 years of age, Monika Jagaciak made a splash in the Fall 2009 shows, debuting at New York Fashion Week walking in many shows, from Donna Karan to the Calvin Klein Collection (which she opened and closed), becoming one of the most talked about newcomers of the fall 2009 season. She became known for her powerful runway walk even though she fell on the Herve Leger runway, and then she went on to close both Marc Jacobs and Marni. She has also gone on to walk in Milan Italy, walking for Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Versace, and many more, but she didn’t meet the age requirement to walk in Paris so she skipped those fashion shows. She has become one of the “Top Ten Models to Watch” by New York Magazine. Designer Francisco Costa said of her when she became the face of Calvin Klein, “She possesses a timeless beauty that gives her the ability to be highly versatile, making her one of the most promising new models today.”

The World’s Top Earning Models – Daria Werbowy $4.5 Million Per Year

Forbes magazine recently released the latest list of the world’s most highly paid models. Ranking in 6th place on the Forbes list of the most highly paid models in the world with estimated earnings of $4.5 million United States Dollars over the past year is Canadian and Eastern European beauty Daria Werbowy.

Daria Werbowy is a Ukrainian Canadian model. She is perhaps best known as a spokesperson for the French beauty brand Lancome. Although born in Krakow Poland, Daria Werbowy holds both Canadian and Ukrainian citizenship. When she was three years old, Daria Werbowy’s Ukrainian parents moved to Mississauga, a suburb of Toronto, Ontario, Canada. At age 14, Daria Werbowy was 5’11” and sporting braces.

Daria Werbowy had never seriously considered modeling, but found herself launched into the business after meeting a schoolmate’s mother who headed a local model and talent management agency in Toronto called Susan J. Model & Talent Management. At age 14, Daria Werbowy won a national modeling contest, but after a year of working with Susan J. Model & Talent, however, Daria Werbowy thought she could be doing more with another agency and left.

After switching over to Elite Models, Daria Werbowy began landing several prominent bookings in Canada but still had not achieved much international success. Daria lived in London and Greece, where there were a very large number of castings, but no work. Her first runway season was disrupted and her bookings canceled after the September 11 attacks in New York City. After a disappointing eight months, Daria Werbowy returned to Canada. She gave modeling a final shot as a means to fund her art school education.

“I returned to New York, met my agent and the next day I had an exclusive deal with Prada. From then on it was all a bit of a blur.”

When Elite Canada’s head scout, Elmer Olsen, started his own agency, Daria Werbowy followed and her career began to flourish. Within a few years, and under the guidance of International Management Group (IMG), Daria Werbowy had gained a foothold on the international modeling stage. Daria considered taking a break from the fashion industry at age 27 to sail around the world.

Though she relinquished the world’s No.1 runway model status to new “it girls” according to some industry insiders, Daria Werbowy holds the record for opening and closing the most shows in one season. To date, Daria Werbowy’s clients have included Lancome, Prada, Yves Saint Laurent, Pepe Jeans, Roberto Cavalli, Gucci, Hermes, Valentino, David Yurman, Missoni, Versace, Louis Vuitton, and Chanel. In her first season, Fall/Winter 2003, Daria Werbowy captured two of the modeling world’s most coveted assignments: the cover of Vogue Italia three times (July, August and October); and Prada’s Fall/Winter ad campaign.

Photographed by Steven Meisel, she was presented on the September 2004 cover of American Vogue as one of the “Models of the Moment”. In July 2007, Forbes Magazine listed Daria Werbowy as the ninth highest earning model in the world. Her earnings between June 2006 and June 2007 were in the order of $3.5 million United States Dollars, far below her 12 month 2010-2011 earnings of $4.5 million United States Dollars which just ranked her as the world’s 6th most highly paid model.

In 2008 Daria Werbowy embarked on a three month journey across the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. On September 6, 2008, Daria was inducted into Canada’s Walk Of Fame. She is the second Canadian model, after Linda Evangelista, to have a star on the Canadian Walk of Fame. Earlier that year, Daria Werbowy launched a three piece makeup collection by Lancôme for Sephora. The proceeds went to the Vik Muniz charity Centrao Especial for underprivileged youth in Brazil. Daria Werbowy was one of the faces on one of the fourteen covers of V Magazine in the September 2008 issue. Each cover boasts a head shot of a famous model, either from the new crop of leading models (Agyness Deyn, Lara Stone, Natasha Poly, Anja Rubik, etc.) or the supermodel era (Christy Turlington, Eva Herzigova).

Vogue Paris declared her one of the top 30 models of the 2000s.

Daria Werbowy is featured in the 2011 Pirelli Calendar photographed by Karl Lagerfeld.

She ranked No. 6 on Forbes The World’s Top Earning Models list, with an estimated earnings of $4.5 million since May of last year (2010-2011). Daria Werbowy earned $4.5 million United States Dollars since last May, anchored by a posh contract from fragrance and makeup giant Lancôme Paris.

Over the last year Daria Werbowy, who was born in Poland and raised in Canada, inked deals with Hudson Bay, Stefanel, Joseph, Oroton, and YSL. Other modeling contracts include: Lancôme, Versace, and H&M.

With stunning cosmetics contracts Daria has leapt effortlessly into the financial VIP club. Even better, her editorial profile is so consistently flawless that Daria Werbowy has emerged as the great breakthrough model of her decade.
