With the new year having officially arrived, its time to take a look at those models who are likely to cause the greatest sensation. From January 3 to January 16, we'll be revealing the names of models we expect to see everywhere this year.
Top model lists are about as arbitrary as anything and totally at the whims of those who put them together. Unlike other rankings, which include subjective criteria in their assessments, we've computed the list scientifically. Hence, we've rounded up the top 10 American models who have taken 2017 by storm: from their catwalk presence to their street style.
Taken from the IFDAQ 'American Models National Rankings' list, it serves as a cheat sheet for supermodel historians out there. These refreshingly eclectic mix of models mean business. Not only have they made an impression throughout 2017, but are anticipated to define the upcoming seasons in fashion.
Grace Elizabeth ranks at No 7. The Florida native beauty who has been making waves in the industry, started modelling in 2014 and is since unquestionably on the rise. Grace got her start in modelling as the face of Guess advertising and followed in the footsteps of Adriana Lima. She then went on to make her runway debut walking exclusively for Miu Miu during the Fall/Winter 2016 ready-to-wear season.
Grace made her first appearance in Vogue USA for its June 2016 issue. Since then, she has worked with photographers like Patrick Demarchelier, and Theo Wenner. Internationally she has been featured on the German, Spanish, and French editions of Vogue. Her beauty and seductive charisma make her one of the most sought after models in the fashion media landscape, which is why she is now a regular subject for leading fashion photographers. In 2017, she was tapped as the new face of Victoria's Secret Pink.
In addition to ranking No 7 on the IFDAQ 'American Models National Rankings' list, Grace ranks at No 13 on IFDAQ 'Global Fashion Model List'.
