A new generation

You probably know Claudia Schiffer, Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell, but behind these legends, a new generation of models is emerging. They are men and women whose careers are, typically for this day and age, increasingly built from an Instagram account. Let's review the 20 most promising young models.

Karlie Kloss

Born in 1992 in Chicago and active since the end of the 2000s, Karlie Kloss has been the face of the Swarovski brand since 2016. With her very long legs and particularly slender figure, she is one of the highest paid models in the world.

Thylane Blondeau

Thylane Blondeauwas voted the most beautiful girl in the world at the age of six. Since her childhood successes, the French woman has continued modeling and become the youngest muse in the history of L'Oréal. She also walks the runway for and by Dolce & Gabbana. The future smiles on Thylane, only 21 years old.

Taylor Hill

Born in 1996 in the United States, Taylor Hill was discovered by a photographer at the age of fourteen and became a Victoria's Secret Angel in 2015. Voted Model of the Year at the Fashion Media Awards of the same year, she became the face of Lancôme in 2016.

Cindy Kimberly

One of the newest arrivals in the highly competitive world of modeling. Aged just 23, the Dutch girl became famous overnight when Justin Bieber shared a photo of her. She started her modeling career immediately after…

Charlotte d'Alessio

Another new face among the top models: the Canadian Charlotte d'Alessio. Born in 1998, she caised a buzz with photos of herself during the Coachella Festival in 2015. She has since been the face of several perfumes.

Emily Ratajkowski

Of Polish origin, born in London and raised in the United States, Emily Ratajkowski caught the eye of the public with her provocative photos. Noticed in Robin Thicke's music video 'Blurred Lines' a few years ago, she has since paraded for The Kooples brand while maintaining her status as a female icon.

Ashley Graham

The most revolutionary of all models! Born in the United States in 1987, Ashley Graham turned fashion codes upside down by fully assuming her shapes. She transmits a positive message to other women while being in great demand by the big designers.

Winnie Harlow

Another young model who breaks all the codes and contributes to changing mentalities. The Canadian Winnie Harlow suffers from vitiligo (depigmentation of the skin resulting in white spots), but she's been a successful model for the Desigual and Diesel brands. They appreciate her atypical appearance.

Barbara Palvin

Born in 1993, Hungarian model Barbara Palvin has been walking the catwalk for the greatest designers (Prada, Chanel, Calvin Klein) since 2010. She became the face of L'Oréal and then a Victoria's Secret Angel in 2019.

Cara Delevingne

The now thirty-year-old British model has acquired a certain notoriety by displaying herself frankly on social networks. A muse of Burberry at the age of 18, she was praised by Karl Lagerfeld for her small face, thick eyebrows, and slender bird silhouette. Known for her explosive poses, Cara Delevingne has also tried her luck in film.

Bar Refaeli

As the daughter of a model, Refaeli was introduced to the workplace early on. She dated Leonardo DiCaprio and was voted the most attractive woman in the world by 'Maxim' in 2012. Very appreciated both for her face and for the line of her body, the Israeli model has campaigned for several lingerie brands.

Constance Jablonski

Another French woman in this top 20, Jablonski launched her career with a bang in 2009 by posing for Dolce & Gabbana and parading for brands like Lanvin and Gucci. She then became the muse of Etam.

Josephine Skriver

Born of LGBT parents, the Danish Josephine Skriver started modeling from early childhood. She walked for all the major brands and made numerous magazine covers in the early 2010s, before becoming a Victoria's Secret Angel in 2016.

Kendall Jenner

We should not fail to mention Kendall Jener, born in 1995 in Los Angeles, as one of the stars of this generation. She began her modeling career at fourteen after participating in the program 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians.' While all the brands are fighting over her and she has more than 100 million followers on Instagram, Jenner was crowned Fashion Icon of the Decade and became the highest paid model in the world in 2017.

Gigi Hadid

Like Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid is worth mentioning here. She was born in 1995 in Los Angeles with Palestinian roots. Voted model of the year after walking the catwalk for the first time in 2015 for Victoria's Secret, she is now known around the world.

Alton Mason

Who said top models had to be exclusively female? Make way for men with an equally promising new generation! Starting with Alton Mason, who was first spotted on Instagram and then modeled for Kanye West's brand Yeezy in 2016. He then walked the runway for Chanel in 2018. His ratings are skyrocketing, and he's not even 25 years old yet.

Haatepah

Another phenomenon of the men's fashion scene! Also known as Coyotl, Haatepah Clearbear is of Native American descent. At 24, he has already modeled for Nike and Ralph Lauren, while he also advocates for Indigenous rights and popularizes Native American history on TikTok.

Leon Dame

Leon Dame became the darling of fashion houses after causing a sensation at a Margiela Fashion Show in 2019. He branched out to other labels and is now one of the most in-demand male models.

Ottawa Kwami

The Ghanaian Ottawa Kwami is the male model who walked the most fashion shows in 2021, with no less than 20 runways! A muse of Louis Vuitton and much courted by the competition, the young top model will undoubtedly continue to be talked about in the coming years.

Fernando Lindez

Born in Spain in the year 2000, Fernando Lindez distinguished himself by his atypical face with prominent cheekbones. He has modeled for several major brands while making appearances on TV shows as well. A rising star!
