Ad campaigns, catwalk shows, magazine covers, even commercial newsstand value: The Daily Beast has assessed all the aspects of a model’s “visibility and success” to determine supermodel superiority and has ranked them as a top-10 list.
“We considered four tenets to illustrate a model’s visibility and success — multi-year contracts, advertising campaigns, runway appearances, and magazine covers. Those with retail licensing deals, including Kate Moss and Gisele Bündchen, got credit for those estimated annual earnings, as well. Annual income from contracts, primarily negotiated by large cosmetic companies and Victoria’s Secret, were weighted 40 percent because they are the most difficult to get, bear the largest salaries, and indicate a very high level of success.”

Lara Stone isn't the only one getting all of the love. It looks like she has competiton for Carine Roitfeld's heart with French Vogue favourite Daria Werbowy. It's no secret that Roitfeld has a soft spot for the supermodel. Let's just say that she is to French Vogue what Caroline Trentini is to American Vogue.
With that in mind, it was hardly a suprise when it was announced that, like it did with Lara Stone, French Vogue is dedicating an entire issue to Werbowy for August.
Check back this week for all of the pictures.

Kate Moss, who has allegedly "gotten fat", doesn't seem to be too heavy for the line of service men showing her off in the new autumn/winter Longchamp ads. We think the one on the far right is being a little nosey by looking in her handbag, but hey.
In the other shot for the fall campaign, Daria Werbowy joins the mix to show off leather goods and a little cheetah.

Can you see this face winning modelling jobs? So can IMG. Miss Kimberly Alexis Bledel has signed with mega-agency IMG. This puts the former Gilmore Girl in the company of Gisele, Daria Werbowy, Kate Moss and (you know you love her) Taylor Momsen.
We say: Get this girl a beauty campaign ASAP.
