You know their names. You recognize their faces on the world’s most prestigious fashion magazines. You know they make millions, and we mean millions. But did you know that these supermodels are also becoming business giants in the fashion industry? Business you said? We thought this was a fashion blog about the modeling industry and our favorite models and supermodels. Actually, you are correct, but maybe not in the way that you thought you were prior to reading this article.

Meet Gisele Bundchen – The World’s First Self Made Billionaire Model?

Gisele Bundchen is known throughout the world. She is expected to perhaps become the world’s first self made billionaire model. Gisele Bundchen is still the highest paid model in the world, having earned approximately $45 million last year. While her record $5 million a year Victoria’s Secret contract has ended, she still earns serious money by licensing her image to Brazilian shoe company Grendene. Her sandal line, Ipanema by Gisele, accounts for about 20% of the company’s $95 million in annual sales. Annual royalty that gets sent in the form of checks to the beautiful wife of superstar quarterback Tom Brady: about $8 million per year just from that income source alone.

Meet German Beauty Heidi Klum – $20 Million Per Year Is The Only Introduction She Needs

Pity the poor supermodel. In The 1990’s supermodels earned $50,000 a day on the runways of New York, London, Paris or Milan. Today, all but the cream of the crop are likely to walk away with little more than a taxi fare and a few pairs of the designer’s high heels. As for high powered cosmetics contracts, long the province of supermodels like Claudia Schiffer and Cindy Crawford, those are now going to Hollywood stars like Scarlett Johansson and Eva Longoria, both with L’Oréal.

Fortunately, beautiful faces never go out of style. A popular model with a few contracts under her belt can slap her name on fragrances, clothes, shoes, and skincare lines. “Brands are still looking for that beautiful face or body,” says Ryan Schinman, chief executive of Platinum Rye, which represents corporations that partner with celebrities. “Older models with household names are making more than they ever did as supermodels in the 1980’s or 1990’s. They are at the height of their earning potential.” Heidi Klum, the world’s 2nd most highly paid model having earned approximately $20 million last year is known throughout the world thanks to having been an Angel with Victoria’s Secret and now the famous host of Project Runway which is seen by millions of viewers worldwide. As she approaches her 40’s, one can only imagine that this is just the beginning of her fashion modeling empire.

But no supermodel can quite compete with Sports Illustrated favorite Kathy Ireland, whose branding strategy inspired the likes of Cindy Crawford and Heidi Klum. Kathy Ireland, who puts her name on everything from sofas and window blinds to jewelry and even entire homes has taken branding to the billion dollar universe! In 2007, her company, Kathy Ireland Worldwide, in which the green-eyed beauty holds a majority stake, generated $1.5 billion in retail sales. Kathy Ireland takes home at least $15 million of that dollar amount. Everyone knows it pays to be pretty and beautiful. It is also good to know that it pays even more to be really smart. Thus, while many in the fashion industry have claimed that the “Age Of The Supermodel” is long gone, many could argue that this is just the beginning!

The modeling icon people call Heidi Inc. is no mere sexy mortal, but a force of nature. It is important to note that according to Forbes magazine, the top 10 earning female models on the planet made a combined $112 million in the 12 months up to May 2011. This represents an increase of approximately 30% from a total of $86.5 million over the previous year. Most of this gain was enjoyed by the top three supermodels: Gisele Bündchen, Heidi Klum, and Kate Moss. Brazilian beauty Gisele Bundchen is also expected to become the word’s first self made billionaire model. The trio have transformed themselves from supermodels to business tycoons, stepping off the runway and into the role of designers, entrepreneurs, and business geniuses. Heidi Klum, the German supermodel and host and executive producer of Project Runway, with an audience in the millions, trails far behind Gisele Bündchen at No. 2 on the list with estimated earnings of approximately $20 million in the last 12 months.

Christian Dior Paris Fashion Week – Backstage For The Fall Winter Fashion Runway Show

Romantic and vibrant, is the only way to describe the stunning look of Dior for Fall Winter 2010/2011. Designer John Galliano was inspired by the 17th century and the movie the Libertines by Johnny Depp. Backstage makeup artist Pat McGrath gave the models flushed cheeks, and Orlando Pita teased the models hair to the extreme creating a slightly frizzy finish that formed a halo like effect around the head. The result was simply stunning.

Model Kate Moss is the new face of Dior (she also made the cover of Vogue Paris).

Christian Dior S.A. (more commonly known as Dior) is a French fashion company which owns the high-fashion clothing producer and retailer Christian Dior Couture, as well as holding approximately 42% of LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton, the world’s largest luxury goods firm.

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.

Kate Moss Biography:

Country of origin: United Kingdom

Born in Britain, Kate Moss was discovered at the age of 14 by the owner of Storm Models at JFK International airport. Her big break came through a 1993 ad campaign for Calvin Klein. Now in her 30’s, Moss continues to work, commanding magazine covers, editorials, and ad campaigns. More recently Moss has also launched a line of clothing with British chain Topshop. She has a daughter, Lila with magazine publisher Jefferson Hack. Kate has been immortalized in paint by Lucien Freud, Stella Vine and in gold by Marc Quinn.
