The World’s Most Highly Paid Models – #3 Kate Moss $8.5 Million Per Year

She’s 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’s managed to become a financial powerhouse while remaining the absolute epitome of editorial cool.

The return of lost contracts and the success of her Topshop line marked a successful year for Moss.

The 35-year-old icon has been attacked for getting old and heavy, but regardless, she’s enjoyed remarkable success in the last year. She’s the face of Versace, Longchamp, and David Yurman, among others. Her line for British retailer Topshop, which moved stateside earlier this year, continues to do well.
