Supermodels are highly paid, top fashion models. These (usually female) celebrities, also known as cover girls, appear on top fashion magazine covers, in catalogues and in fashion shows.
The first model to pave the way for what would become the supermodel was Lisa Fonssagrives.The relationship between her image on over 200 Vogue covers and her name recognition led to the future importance of Vogue in shaping future supermodels. Her image appeared on the cover of every fashion magazine during the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s from Town & Country, Life and Vogue to the original Vanity Fair. Model Janice Dickinson, however, asserts that she was the person for which the term was coined. as she popped the term herself while talking to her agent at the climax of her career: "I'm not superman, I'm a supermodel".
Other notable supermodels and top models have included Twiggy, Gia Carangi, Karen Mulder, Tyra Banks, Christie Brinkley, Rachel Hunter, Christy Turlington, Jerry Hall, Marie Helvin, Helena Christensen, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Linda Evangelista, Elle Macpherson, Stephanie Seymour, Elizabeth Hurley, Claudia Schiffer, and Kate Moss.
