Wealth stalker and list-obsessed financial magazine Forbes has released its latest list of the planet’s wealthiest earners in fashion: female models. Topping the list is Brazilian model Gisele Bundchen who earned $45 million between May 2010 and May 2011.
German model, mom and producer Heidi Klum came in a distant second with $20 million, while Kate Moss ranked third with $14 million thanks in part to her deal with UK brand TopShop.
“Gisele Bündchen is clearly in a class by herself, and has been for a number of years,” Edward Razek, chief marketing officer of Limited Brands, told Forbes. Razek worked with the supermodel during her Victoria’s Secret career. “She’s an international icon who can also move product–from shampoo to couture.”
