Carolyn Murphy
The signature face of Estee Lauder Cosmetics and its array of blue chip fragrances has capped off a dream editorial career with a dream contract. Her longevity has been a masterpiece of management on the part of her very devoted agency.
Natalia Vodianova
The supermodel with the fastest rise to the top of the industry is indisputably Natalia Vodionova, converting the cachet of a Calvin Klein contract into full-on celebrity via her Vanity Fair profiles and Only Girl July 07 Vogue cover.
Daria Werbowy
She has been a model with one of the most impeccable booking records of recent times with every single campaign being as prominent and as blue chip as they come (Prada, Prada fragrance, Gucci, Chanel, YSL, Missoni, Vuitton). Add to that major covers and a near monthly Only Girl rotation in US Vogue and Vogue Paris at her height and then the grand ring of a Lancome contract. Flawless!
Kate Moss
No model working, right this second commands more covers and campaigns than the iconic Miss Moss. The girl who once memorably opined "Never complain. Never explain." has certainly got the last word.
Gisele Bundchen
It'll be a long time before any other model will nab anything like the $25 million dollar Victoria's Secret mega-contract that put Ms Bundchen on the map five years ago. Though she has since then moved in from the brand Gisele still looms as the highest earning model on the planet at an estimated $33 million for 2006 and remains one of the only two models who actually can move mags on the newsstands.
