This isn’t about how much money they make, but more about how much I love them. So, it’s entirely subjective and not very objective. I actually believe this list isn’t really the top models of “right now”, because the models I prefer aren’t the really new ones.

1. Lily Cole

Lily Cole is not a stick. She, as she says herself, “has tits”. Which is good; I think it makes a girl look so much better, so much more feminine. She’s slender, tall, and curvy. She has striking blue eyes, a face like a doll, and she’s a redhead. I love red hair.

2. Gemma Ward

Need I say more? Or anything at all? I think I could stare at this picture be totally mesmerized by it forever. God. How can someone be so perfect?

3. Caroline Trentini

Look at that silhouette! She does elegant, cute, and sultry so well. She also walked in the Victoria’s Secret fashion show once I think. And what a cute name. Trentini.

4. Heidi Klum

Smoking body, check. Crazy successful reality tv show Project Runway, check. Hot husband, check. Cute kids, check. Ability to age oh so gracefully, check. Lovely German accent (Are you eeeen or are you owwwt?), check. The ability to make snorting when laughing adorable, check. Heidi’s got it all!

5. Chanel Iman

I adore the fact that Chanel Iman is 1/4 Korean, 3/4 black. What a gorgeous mix! She looked absolutely adorable on the Tyra Banks show, but I can’t find any pictures of that, so this will have to do! She’s pretty twiggy, but I think it’s just her body type - she doesn’t look like she’s going to die any time soon.

6. Devon Aoki

Devon is short (more like average height, but short for a model) and half-asian. Yay for being short and asian! Her face is pretty doll-like too. And that garden-of-eden-esque photoshoot? Awesome.

7. Marissa Miller

Excuse the blatant almost-nudity, haha. It’s just that Marissa Miller has possibly the most perfect body in the history of the world. See for yourself. No wonder she’s a VS Angel…

8. Tyra Banks

She might’ve gone a little crazy with the rhinestone encrusted Vaseline giveaway on her talk show, but that’s okay, I’ll forgive her. She’s more than a little quirky, but America’s Next Top Model is a greattttt show, and I think she’s absolutely gorgeous!

9. Adriana Lima

I’ve sort of run out of things to say about the VS Angels. I just love them.

10. Alessandra Ambrosio

Ditto above.

I prefer, it seems, models that have curves. Which both makes sense and doesn’t. Curves are sexy, and probably healthier. But sometimes, I think clothes look better on skinnier girls. What’re your favorite models? Do you prefer twiggy or more voluptuous models? Do you think clothes look better on skinnier people?
