Getting her start as a beauty queen in Denmark, the stunning brunette went on to appear on the cover of Vogue and Elle, model for Versace, Chanel and Prada, and even walked the runway as a Victoria's Secret Angel. You also might remember her from the super-steamy music video for Chris Isaak's "Wicked Game."
In 1999, Christensen co-founded Nylon magazine before launching two clothing lines. She's also gone behind the camera as well, photographing for Nylon, Marie Claire and Elle.
Effortlessly gorgeous, Seymour stepped out on to the modeling scene in 1983 when she became a finalist at the first-ever Elite Model Management Look of the Year modeling contest. The brunette went on to appear in numerous issues of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, posed for Victoria's Secret and Playboy and even graced the cover of Vogue.
Now 47, Steph looks better than ever! After famously dating Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose (one more for the "then" side: the epic "November Rain" video), Seymour married business mogul Peter Brant. The couple have three children together; Seymour also has a son from a previous relationship.
What designer hasn't this gorgeous girl worked with? A face of Calvin Klein, Missoni, Chanel, Valentino and Revlon, Turlington also starred alongside her model besties in George Michael's iconic music video for "Freedom! '90."
Since her modeling days, Turlington has turned her attention toward launching two active-wear brands and a skincare line. The mother of two children with hubby Ed Burns also started her own foundation to advocate for maternal health awareness. She made her directorial debut on the 2010 film No Woman No Cry, a documentary focusing on pregnancy across the globe—so no, there isn't anything she doesn't do.
A pioneer in the industry, Iman quickly became the muse of Calvin Klein, Donna Karan and Yves Saint-Laurent after making her modeling debut in Vogue. In 1994, the beauty started her own cosmetics firm dedicated to finding shades for women with diverse skin tones.
Iman still heads her wildly successful cosmetics company and in 2007 launched a clothing line with Home Shopping Network. She is married to British rock star David Bowie, who she shares one of two children with.
Karl Lagerfield handpicked the blond bombshell when she was just 17 to become the face of Chanel and this was after Schiffer channeled Brigitte Bardot for a Guess? campaign, skyrocketing her into supermodel territory.
Years after her runway days, Schiffer believes, "Supermodels, like we once were, don't exist any more." Now married with three children, Schiffer is still a media darling in her home country of Germany.
The Australian stunner is arguably most famous for her record five Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue appearances, which led to her nickname "The Body." She's also walked in runway shows for designers such as Ralph Lauren, Donna Karen, Nicole Miller, Calvin Klein, Christian Dior and John Galliano and has appeared in a number of campaigns for Victoria's Secret.
More recently, Macpherson founded lingerie line Elle Macpherson Intimates and The Body, a line of skin care products. In 2010, she became the host and executive producer of Britain & Ireland's Next Top Model and hosted the first season of NBC's Fashion Star.
There will never be another like Twiggy! Known for her signature gamine look and wide eyes framed by loooong lashes, the towheaded stunner made androgyny sexy during the 1960s. She went on to enjoy a highly successful career in acting, starring in a wide range of television, film and stage productions.
Now 65, Twiggy has remained on the forefront of the industry, designing her own fashion line and appearing as a judge on America's Next Top Model.
After getting discovered while sunbathing on the beaches in France, it only took a few years before the blonde's tall stature landed her Vogue and Cosmopolitan covers. In 1977, Hall met Rolling Stones leader singer Mick Jagger and the two remained together for more than 20 years.
After having four children with her rock star husband, Hall took her talents to the stage. She has since appeared in a number of West End productions and most recently tested her dancing abilities on the British reality show Strictly Come Dancing.
In 1994, this Czech model put Wonderbra on the map with a sultry ad that featured the stunner in nothing but her skivvies. Herzigova went on to pose for Guess?, Victoria's Secret and Sports Illustrated before marrying (and later divorcing) Bon Jovi drummer Tico Torres.
Herzigova hasn't forgotten modeling completely, recently appearing on the cover of Elle Italia. She shares three sons with longtime boyfriend Gregorio Marsiaj.
Not only has Ireland appeared on the covers of Vogue, Cosmopolitan and Forbes, she also appeared in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue for 13 consecutive years and appeared on the cover for the 25th Anniversary Swimsuit Edition, the magazine's highest selling issue to date.
Since her modeling days, Ireland has focused on building her eponymous empire. In 1993 she founded kathy ireland Worldwide, a lifestyle company with its own fashion, home and wedding lines.
