Here, the richest supermodels from 90s icons to Instagram ‘It’ girls.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Supermodels have come a long way from being glorified clotheshorses, with the richest of the top models amongst some of the highest earners in the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

Dominating the runway, helming campaigns and gracing the front covers of magazines has become a lucrative trade, with the jet-setting and lavish lifestyle of a luxury fashion model not only a coveted career choice, but one that can amass a fortune. <\/span><\/p>\n

Indeed, this billion-dollar business has supplanted the role of a supermodel as more than just a pretty face, with a handful of one-named wonders, see: Kendall, Cindy, Gigi and Giselle, breaking through from model to muse and icon, in turn, well-deserved spots on Forbes<\/em>\u2019 highest net worth lists. <\/span><\/p>\n

With the \u201cjob\u201d of gallivanting around the globe to saunter down some of the world\u2019s most exclusive runways only a modicum of what a supermodel\u2019s role requires her to do, the means through which these 90s icons<\/a> and Instagram \u2018It\u2019 girls<\/a> are bolstering their own personal wealth are more diverse than ever before. <\/span><\/p>\n

So, without further adieu, we present the richest supermodels trading their face cards for fortunes.<\/span><\/p>\n

The 10 Richest Supermodels, Ranked:<\/strong><\/h5>\n

Cindy Crawford<\/strong><\/p>\n

One of the original \u2018Big Five\u2019 supermodels from the late 80s and 90s<\/a>, Cindy Crawford garnered a name for herself thanks to her all-American glamour<\/a> that subverted the idea of the \u2018girl next door\u2019.<\/p>\n

As per a 2021 report from Forbes<\/em><\/a>, a combination of Crawford\u2019s skincare brand Meaningful Beauty and endorsement deals from Pepsi in 1992 and Revlon in 1989 have contributed to the 57-year-old\u2019s $225 million fortune.<\/p>\n

However, we\u2019re sure Crawford is also getting residuals from her music videos, exercise tapes and the upcoming Apple TV+ documentary The Supermodels.<\/em><\/p>\n

Gisele B\u00fcndchen<\/strong><\/p>\n

Brazilian supermodel Gisele B\u00fcndchen may no longer be a mainstay on the runway, but the former Victoria\u2019s Secret Angel\u2014best known for bringing an athletic physique<\/a> back to the catwalk after a heroin chic reign<\/a>\u2014is reportedly worth $400 million according to CelebrityNetWorth. <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

In 2016, Forbes<\/em><\/a> cited B\u00fcndchen\u2019s net worth at $30.5M, but with recent brand deals from Louis Vuitton and Jimmy Choo<\/a> (and a post-divorce glow-up<\/a>), B\u00fcndchen\u2019s accurate personal fortune is certainly growing.<\/p>\n

Iman Abdulmajid<\/strong><\/p>\n

Like the other supermodels on this list, the Somali-American model is better known mononymously. Iman<\/a> is arguably one of the world\u2019s original supermodels, with her career ascending in a meteoric fashion since being discovered in 1976.<\/p>\n

As per CelebrityNetWorth<\/em><\/a>, Iman is worth $200 million, with the majority of that reportedly coming from the inheritance left to her after the death of her husband, David Bowie.<\/p>\n

Heidi Klum<\/strong><\/p>\n

Heidi Klum first made a considerable amount of money after winning a $300,000 prize as part of a modelling contract in 1992, yet the German-American supermodel is now reportedly worth over $160 million, as per CelebrityNetWorth. <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

With Klum best known for her respective 13-year run as a Victoria\u2019s Secret Angel<\/a> and host of Project Runway<\/em>, the model is now best known for her television career, front-row appearances and nightmarish Halloween costumes.<\/a><\/p>\n

Elle Macpherson<\/strong><\/p>\n

Australian darling Elle Macpherson may have traded in coupes of champagne for glasses of green juice (courtesy of her WelleCo beauty supplements)<\/a>, but the beauty founder<\/a> has reportedly amassed a net worth of $95 million, according to CelebrityNetWorth. <\/em><\/a><\/p>\n

Along with being one of the \u201cMagnificent Seven\u2019 models from the 90s, Macpherson\u2019s fortune includes her former modelling agency venture, short-lived role on Friends<\/em><\/a> and hosting duties on Britain & Ireland’s Next Top Model.<\/em><\/p>\n

Naomi Campbell<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Naomi Campbell<\/a>\u2014who received an honorary doctorate from the University for the Creative Arts in 2022\u2014is one of the world\u2019s most decorated supermodels, with the British runway maven still dominating the industry.<\/p>\n

With Campbell<\/a> receiving her first magazine cover before she even turned 16, the mother-of-two is reportedly worth $90 million, according to CelebrityNetWorth<\/em><\/a>. In 2023 alone, Campbell fronted Fendi\u2019s Peekaboo campaign and walked runways for Alexander McQueen, Schiaparelli and Off-White.<\/p>\n

Claudia Schiffer<\/strong><\/p>\n

As one of Karl Lagerfeld\u2019s original \u2018choupettes\u2019<\/a> (or muses), German supermodel Claudia Schiffer enters the richest supermodel list with a reported net worth of $70 million. <\/a><\/p>\n

One of the biggest fashion icons in her heyday, Schiffer famously appeared in Versace\u2019s Autumn\/Winter 1994 campaign lensed by Richard Avedon and made an iconic cameo in Love Actually. <\/em><\/p>\n

Nowadays, Schiffer mainly shares fashion throwbacks and snippets of her 530-acre Tudor mansion<\/a> with her 1.8 million Instagram followers.<\/p>\n

Kate Moss<\/strong><\/p>\n

Kate Moss has continually claimed if she wasn\u2019t a supermodel, she\u2019d be a rockstar, but with the fashion star worth a reported $70 million<\/a>, we can only imagine what the perennial style icon would amount to should\u2019ve she chosen a different career path.<\/p>\n

The supermodel has worked with the biggest fashion houses since she was 16 years old, with Moss becoming a household name in 1992 after appearing topless with Mark Wahlberg in an infamous black-and-white Calvin Klein campaign.<\/a><\/p>\n

This year, Moss launched her own wellness brand, Cosmoss<\/a>, resigned as Diet Coke\u2019s creative director and even inspired a Kate Moss fan book hand-curated by Bottega Veneta\u2019s Matthieu Blazy.<\/a><\/p>\n

Gigi Hadid<\/strong><\/p>\n

At only 28 years old, Gigi Hadid<\/a> has risen to the ranks of the fashion industry to become one of the wealthiest figures from the Instagram generation of ‘It’ girls.<\/p>\n

Her nascent rise was chronicled on early seasons of Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills<\/em><\/a>, with Hadid working in every facet of the industry, from runway modeling, designing as part of her knitwear brand Guest In Residence<\/a>, hosting Netflix\u2019s Next In Fashion<\/em> <\/a>and even lending her backstage photography (taken on her Kodak disposable camera) to Miu Miu\u2019s Fall\/Winter 2020 campaign.<\/p>\n

According to CelebrityNetWorth<\/em><\/a>, Hadid is worth $30 million.<\/p>\n

Kendall Jenner<\/strong><\/p>\n

With Jenner fronting cameras since age 9 as part of her family\u2019s reality show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians<\/em>, the supermodel became one of the most sought-after stars when she stepped on the scene back in 2014.<\/p>\n

Now, in 2023, Jenner<\/a> is topping the industry courtesy of her recent brand deals with FRWD<\/a>, Calvin Klein, Miu Miu,<\/a> Proenza Schouler and Marc Jacobs, her spirit business, 818 Tequila<\/a>, and of course, starring on The Kardashians.<\/em><\/p>\n

Forbes<\/em><\/a> reported her net worth as $22.5 million dollars in 2018\u2014citing her as the highest-paid model in the financial year of 2017-18\u2014but CelebrityNetWorth<\/em> places her fortune closer to $60 million.<\/p>\n

Of course, as fans of Jenner would know, the renovation of her Beverly Hills mansion<\/a> has certainly added a substantial asset to her financial portfolio.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":42674,"featured_media":82249,"template":"","format":"standard","categories":[17,16],"yoast_head":"\nThe 10 Richest Supermodels, Including Net Worth &
