Photography By Dimitrios Kambouris Via WireImage.

Gisele Bundchen left IMG Models in early 2021 after approximately 22 years of being represented by the fashion modeling agency. Gisele Bunchen is one of the world’s most famous fashion models, and now she’s saying goodbye to her fashion modeling agency, IMG Models, after 22 years of working together. The 40 year old supermodel beauty is reportedly taking her fashion modeling representation in-house, with twin sister and manager Patricia Bundchen set to take the reigns of her fashion modeling career.

Gisele is believed to be one of the modeling industry’s top earners. Discovered when she was just 14 years old while at a mall in her native Brazil, the 5 foot 11 inches supermodel became a fashion modeling star during New York Fashion Week in 1996, having made her runway debut just two years earlier in 1994.

Gisele Bundchen was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 2000 to 2007, wearing the coveted Fantasy Bra in 2000 and 2005, and has also graced over 41 Vogue covers throughout her fabulous fashion modeling career. In 2016 Brazilian supermodel announced she was quitting the catwalk, sharing on Instagram and writing:

‘I am grateful that at 14, I was given the opportunity to start this journey.

‘Today after 20 years in the industry, it is a privilege to be doing my last fashion show by choice and yet still be working in other facets of the business.’

Her final runway walk was something of a homecoming, modeling looks from Colcci during Sao Paulo Fashion Week in April 2016. However, Brazilian fashion model Gisele Bundchen has continued to pose for magazine fashion editorials and luxury fashion campaigns around the world. News of the retired Victoria’s Secret Angel’s representation came after her husband Tom Brady won his seventh NFL Championship during the Super Bowl.

Gisele was there to celebrate with her 43 year old loving husband Tom Brady, bringing his three kids Vivian, Benjamin, and Jack on the field during the Super Bowl to congratulate their famous dad (two of the three children are Gisele’s). The power couple shared a passionate kiss before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback accepted his MVP trophy that night in Super Bowl LV. Gisele Bundchen’s husband Tom Brady also broke his own record for oldest player to win a Super Bowl and joins Hall of Famer Peyton Manning as the only quarterbacks to win the Super Bowl trophy with multiple franchises.

  • Gisele Bündchen’s birth date: July 20, 1980.
  • Nationality: Brazil.
  • 17.2 Million Instagram Followers (June 2021).

“Brazilian fashion model Gisele Bundchen has earned over $497 million dollars from fashion modeling since the beginning of this century.”

Gisele Bündchen is arguably one of the most successful models of all time. Over more than 20 years in fashion, she built an unprecedented modeling career. During this time, she became the face of countless global campaigns for the most prominent brands and graced more than a thousand magazine covers, such as Time, Forbes, Rolling Stone, and the top fashion magazines including Vogue, W, Elle, and Harper’s Bazar. She has been photographed by the most prestigious photographers and walked the runaway for the most iconic fashion brands in the world.

Her path was so outstanding that a new term had to be created to define her presence in fashion. Gisele became known as a “Übermodel,” meaning “more than a supermodel.” In the late 90s and early 2000s, Gisele ushered in a big change in the era’s typical stereotype and brought to fashion a new look: a healthy body, curves and a golden tan. She also broke standards when she was able to combine a remarkable fashion career and a bustling commercial career. But her success is not only credited to her beautiful face and sculptural body. Her professionalism, positive attitude and contagious energy have been singled out by many as decisive traits in reaching the top of her career.

Furthermore, Gisele is also recognized for her passion and commitment to the environment. Along with her father in 2008 she created a project called “Agua Limpa” who planted more than 40,000 trees and was able to help the quality of the water in her hometown, Horizontina. In acknowledgment of her dedication to the environment, she was designated a Goodwill Ambassador for United Nations Environment Program in 2009. Since then, she has been working with the UN to draw attention to environmental issues and undertaken field missions in Brazil, Kenya, and the U.S. With a global reach, she uses her notoriety to raise awareness about the importance of protecting our planet and all living beings to make the world a healthier and happier place for her children and all generations to come.

Imagine that one day you are a beautiful Brazilian teenager eating a Big Mac at a local McDonald’s in beautiful Brazil South America. Now imagine that same 14 year old girl from Brazil becoming the highest paid model in the world with earnings of approximately $45 million United States Dollars per year. Not only that, but this same Brazilian girl becoming a supermodel known around the world and becoming the face of everything from Dolce & Gabbana to Victoria’s Secret. Now imagine that same supermodel becoming the first billionaire model in human history. With exception to the last part (the billionaire part), it happened to one girl. It happened to the Brazilian girl at the beginning of our story. It happened to Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen. Could it happen to you? Well, the answer is yes and no.

The truth is that even for the most beautiful perfect young woman with the most beautiful personality, body, and face in the world, the odds are far better at winning the lottery. But still, every year, some women that model do make it in the fashion modeling industry and eventually become supermodels. It isn’t impossible. So the question is how does a pretty teen girl go from nobody and unknown model to supermodel? How does one become a supermodel and is there an express route to becoming a supermodel for Victoria’s Secret and Estée Lauder?

The fashion editorial will be at least 8 pages of beautiful images of two beautiful models selected by our modeling agency and photographed near the hotel’s beautiful swimming pool and waterfalls. Our modeling agency then calls one of our newest models and offers her the editorial only to hear that she would like to politely decline. The reason, the fashion editorial does not pay enough or not at all. After talking with our model for some time and realizing that she will not change her mind our modeling agency then proceeds to call two other models. The two other models accept and become extremely excited to be a part of the fashion editorial even though they will have to drive several hours from their current location to arrive in San Diego Southern California just in time for the photo shoot (one model drove over 5 hours while the other model drove over 2 hours from Los Angeles County). The model that declined the fashion editorial was from San Diego so her driving would have been minimum.

Fast forward 2 months into the future and one of the models makes the cover of the magazine giving her maximum modeling exposure. The model that politely declined the fashion editorial missed out on the potential for a magazine cover. The model that made the magazine cover can now add that to her modeling portfolio (her book) and clients from around the world will see that she is a published model that the editors considered important enough for her to make the cover of their magazine. Now repeat this process over and over and the question is do you believe that the model that declined these opportunities will become a supermodel? Is there such a thing as a supermodel that makes no magazine covers? Or even better, is there such a thing as a supermodel that is never in any magazines? This is a textbook case, and because of our global reach our modeling agency encounters models that miss opportunities like this from time to time.

How To Become A Victoria’s Secret Supermodel And The Express Route From Unknown Model To Becoming A Supermodel For Victoria’s Secret And Estée Lauder

A handful of models, like British model Kate Moss, take the express route to becoming a supermodel. Kate Moss was a 14 year old girl inside JFK Airport when she was first approached by an agent who worked for one of London’s most prestigious modeling agencies. Other models, like Victoria’s Secret Brazilian model Adriana Lima accompanied a friend to a modeling contest, only to end up being the discovery. But for most other models, the path to becoming a supermodel is a long process that begins when girls send photos of themselves to local or national modeling agencies or show up for an open casting call at a modeling agency. For example, Victoria’s Secret’s Brazilian model Alessandra Ambrosio took a modeling class in her hometown of Erechim in Brazil and then asked her mother to move with her to São Paulo where she was scouted by a local modeling agency. After that she won a modeling contest in Brazil sponsored by one of New York’s biggest modeling agencies, and the rest is history.

Once a girl is signed with a big and prestigious modeling agency she is sent on what are called “go sees” which are castings where models are introduced to top photographers, important clients for magazine editorials, and top designers for runway shows. During Fashion Weeks in New York, London, Paris, and Milan Italy (held every year during spring and fall) a model can be sent on as many as a dozen go-sees a day for six straight weeks with almost no rest in between. It is this grueling and very low paying internship process that determines whether a model can stand out from the hundreds of other models (remember that all of the other hundreds of models competing for the same modeling jobs are also just as beautiful so personality will be a very important factor during the auditions).

Getting cast in an important designer’s show like that of Burberry, Gucci, or Prada can instantly launch a modeling career. Not getting cast at all for these runway shows can mean a one way ticket back home. Depending on her fashion modeling experience, a fashion model is usually paid between $250 to $1,200 an hour for runway work, but a beginner model takes home little or nothing and many fashion designers don’t pay at all. For example, an “exclusive” model for Calvin Klein (meaning that the model can not walk for any other fashion designers) can earn as little as $9,500.00 for one show (and 15 hours of preparation time).

How To Become A Supermodel And The Secrets Of Becoming A Supermodel For Victoria’s Secret, Burberry, Gucci, Prada, And Estée Lauder

So you might be asking yourself: how is it that if modeling pays so little supermodels make so much money? The answer is that even though runway may not pay, it can actually pay off big time. It is here that a model can be scouted by the star makers of the fashion modeling industry which include fashion magazine editors, top photographers, and cosmetic company executives. But most importantly, It is here that the editors of Vogue magazine might take notice of a girl and put her in the pages of Vogue magazine and/or its international versions such as French Vogue and Italian Vogue for the entire world to discover. It is also important to mention that Vogue magazine can pay a model $250 to be on the cover of their magazine, and that is assuming that you are already a supermodel. Going back to our earlier example of one of our beautiful models that politely declined a fashion editorial and missed the opportunity to make a magazine cover, is there such a thing as a supermodel that makes no magazine covers? Or even better, is there such a thing as a supermodel that is never in any magazines?

Show me the money! Please, how can I make money modeling? I mean, real money not just a few thousand dollars per day. Well, here is an example (the short version). Fashion model Hilary Rhoda was spotted at a New York fashion show by Balenciaga’s lead fashion designer who then brought the unknown runway model to the attention of his friend Aerin Lauder, Estée’s granddaughter and the creative director for Estée Lauder. Hilary Rhoda was then introduced to executives of Estée Lauder and eventually became the face of Estée Lauder worldwide. Estée Lauder’s models are chosen by its top executives. Model candidates are brought in for a photo shoot and put in pretend ads. The models then interview with the executives, who want to make sure the girls are well spoken and can handle store and media appearances. Contract models for larger cosmetic brands are generally paid between $300,000.00 to over $3 million a year, depending on exclusivity and the amount of days the model is expected to work.

It is also important to remember that this is only for just one company as the superpower modeling agencies that represent these models are constantly booking their models with as many clients as possible. For example, fashion model Carolyn Murphy, who models for other brands, earned an estimated $5 million in one year. American supermodel Hilary Rhoda earned approximately $2 million in one year. Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen earned approximately $45 million in one year. British supermodel Kate Moss earned approximately $9.2 million in one year. German supermodel Heidi Klum earned approximately $20 million in one year. You get the point. The models are also required to be a “positive role model” and have a “morals clause” in their contracts. At Victoria’s Secret (which has made supermodels out of dozens of models, including the 14 year old girl Gisele Bundchen at the beginning of our story, along with Adriana Lima, Heidi Klum, Tyra Banks, and Alessandra Ambrosio) executives don’t have to rely on personal preference to pick their next faces. They can measure a girl’s potential in cold hard cash. “Some girls sell incredibly well” said Victoria’s Secret Chief Marketing Officer Edward Razek. Computers track each photograph in every catalog and not surprisingly the girls who move the most merchandise (dresses, skirts, bikinis, bras, panties, and other sexy lingerie) end up moving up the corporate ladder to supermodel realm.

A Victoria’s Secret supermodel can earn as little as $50,000.00 to $100,000.00+ per day, and if that along with magazine covers, fashion advertising campaigns around the world, runway shows for Burberry, Gucci, Prada, and Victoria’s Secret does not motivate you, then probably nothing will, so you might as well politely decline like our model at the beginning of our story. What about the billionaire part for supermodel Gisele Bundchen? Well, we can say that supermodel Gisele Bundchen is well on her way to billionaire status based on the latest industry reports, but she can not even come close to supermodel Kathy Ireland and her multi-billion dollar retail fashion empire that she has created over the last few decades by licensing her name and image to thousands of products around the world. The moral of the story? The next time your superpower modeling agency calls you for a magazine fashion editorial or a runway show that will pay you almost nothing (let us say $250 for this example) per show, you just might want to think about it twice before politely declining. After all, there is a reason why superpower modeling agencies around the world became superpower modeling agencies in the first place.

The Richest Models In The World – The Richest Top Models In The World And Why Fashion Model Kathy Ireland Is The World’s Richest Model – The Richest Supermodels And Wealthiest Models In The World

The Richest Models In The World – The World’s Richest Models

#1 Kathy Ireland with a fortune estimated around $350 million dollars ($350,000,000.00 United States Dollars).

Fashion model Kathy Ireland is perhaps best known for being featured in the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue for 13 consecutive years. In fact, one of Kathy Ireland’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue magazine covers remains to this day the most profitable single edition of any magazine in the world and transforming beautiful bikini models into sexy cash cows for Sports Illustrated. In her prime in terms of her fashion modeling career (supermodel Kathy Ireland was super famous in the 1980’s) she had fashion magazine covers in Glamour magazine, Cosmopolitan magazine, and Vogue magazine (among others) and knew how to maximize her fashion modeling potential appearing as a guest in a variety of television series and shows (Melrose Place, Boy Meets World, and Touched by an Angel), co-starring in several movies, and endorsing several products in fashion advertisements.

Supermodel Kathy Ireland graced the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue magazine cover three times and has built a mega-business out of her mega-modeling-brand (her name, her image, her beautiful looks, etc.). In fact, American fashion model (or should we now say fashion mogul) Kathy Ireland recently moved an outstanding $2 billion worth of licensed products at retail stores, making her a bigger licensor than the formidable Martha Stewart. In fact, the empire of fashion model Kathy Ireland now spans home furnishing solutions (from leather furniture to cabinet tops and ceiling fans) all the way to signature Kathy Ireland socks and wigs. Kathy Ireland has also also added bestselling workout videos to her brand portfolio showing us how she was able to create a very powerful fashion brand using her name, her beautiful looks, and her vast following of millions of fans from around the world. Her beauty and looks made her millions of dollars in her youth, but her extraordinary business genius has made her the richest model in the world with only Brazilian supermodel Gisele Bundchen following close behind (if you consider a $100 million dollar difference close).

Similar to other top earning models like Cindy Crawford, Kate Moss, Elle MacPherson, and Heidi Klum (all ranked among the richest models in the world) fashion model Kathy Ireland has used her youthful success in the fashion modeling industry into a booming international fashion empire of her own. A career in fashion modeling also provides plenty of tough but valuable lessons for a future business entrepreneur. It requires discipline, the ability to handle rejection on a constant basis, and being able to brush of skepticism and critics at every pass (every time a client says no to booking a model) so resilience is key and extremely important. As models meet with potential employers (such as fashion companies) when trying to book a fashion job they must exude and show self-confidence, while remaining constantly aware of their own flaws and shortcomings. In fact, a fashion model might have to go to hundreds of “go sees” and auditions before booking a single job or collecting a single paycheck, so her modeling job is a daily lesson in persistence. Almost by definition, a successful model must build an identifiable “brand” long before she lends her name to anything.

Successful fashion models know how to leverage their name recognition in one field into another. For example, most successful fashion models make small leaps such as German model Heidi Klum when she created “Project Runway” or American fashion model Cindy Crawford with her skin care products designed by dermatologists. But no other supermodel has made a leap as dramatic into business as supermodel Kathy Ireland. The one time sexy bikini model has licensed her name to some 15,000 different products, most of which are very unsexy but extremely profitable. It also helps that Kathy Ireland is also relentlessly on-message when it comes to her brand identity. Her company motto, “Finding solutions for families, especially busy moms” might not be catchy, but it allows her the flexibility to sell a vast, hugely profitable variety of products to millions of women around the world. Thus, it goes to show you that you should never underestimate an extremely beautiful face.

Is This The End Of The Supermodel Era? Supermodels Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum, Kate Moss, Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford, And Kathy Ireland – Supermodels Or Business Giants In The Fashion Modeling Industry?

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.
