Oh how I miss the models of mid 2000s.

where is Malgosia Bela? i remember Daria and Isabeli went to the icon list at the same time .is it right?

^There are a lot of people who find Lara and Doutzen sexy but the list is down to opinion, it's not something your can measure with covers and ad campaigns like the top 50. There are girls there who don't fit my idea of what is sexy but I can see why they appeal to other people in that way. I think Freja is sexy and deserving of a place but I know some people will shudder at that suggestion.

Lara and Doutzen have less of a mainstream sex appeal than Freja though. Doutzen's body is so masculine it's scary.

ikr, I love Natasha but Sasha has ALWAYS been getting getting tons of Campaigns per season. It always bothering why They give Sasha such injustice and the more she works and gets campaigns the more they pull her down
back in 2008 when Sasha's work was literally everywhere, LOL putting Raquel as No.1 was a Joke


and Sasha LOWER than Joan Smalls who doesnt have a single magazine cover and LOWER than Abbey who only got Gucci and isn't doing much these days, though I think Abbey will move down soon as she is more concentrating in her music career and is not that much in demand.

Sasha is on the same rank as Abbey, and Abbey's campaigns always come out later than the other girls for some reason. She probably has 5 more coming out soon. Abbey is still very much in demand and she's still working a lot. You're so biased and I'm not even sure if you realize it.

 

[alonsoJonathan]

I dont think so if i remember right isabeli came back to number 2 for a lil be,i think it was the last days when raquel was No.1 or first days when lara git the No 1 spot. dont really remember.
but Isabeli was in No.2 for like 2 /3 week.than they realize that she was a TOTAL icon n put it on that list.

i wish i can help you more but that is all i remember

 

[Luxx]

I've gotta ask you why Lara Stone is on that list. She's not sexy at all, she just has big boobs. Same with Doutzen.

I don't know what to tell you other than talk to Calvin Klein and Victoria's Secret and tell them that.

I personally find someone like Saskia to be very sexy, but I would never put her on the sexiest list since that isn't how she is marketed and those aren't the clients she works with really.

Surprised people don't like Gisele being on the sexy list. Different strokes I guess, she's got herself a massive contract with Fidelia though, that is in the Asian market but rest assured Gisele has not left the sexy arena.

michelabella is correct in that it is just about who is getting certain types of work / being marketed in a certain sort of way. So it is a combination of things - re: Gisele, she might not be a VS Angel anymore, but she is still GISELE and a big part of her success revolves around the fact that she's still fashion's reigning Brazilian bombshell.

And if you handle other things on the site do you know why some big editorial for some girls (ie. a Vogue Japan ed.) won't be put on the site, yet something tiny for another model (ie. a Harper's reprint cover for some tiny country) will be uploaded?

Sorry, I have absolutely nothing to do with the database/model profile side of things.

hi,Luxx,i want to confirm something that is model.com know what Campaigns the model will get before the Campaigns come out?

Y'all are trying to get me in trouble!!

That notion is not incorrect...

 

[michelabella]

thanks Luxx you said exactly what I thought. To my knowledge Gise has 3 Lingerie contracts and still does occasional bikini work and is known as a "sexy model" by the average non fashion follower.

 

[AlwaysNicky]

where is Malgosia Bela? i remember Daria and Isabeli went to the icon list at the same time .is it right?

Daria went first,then Gemma NO.1,then Raquel NO.1,then Isabeli became No.2 for a while,she went to icon list,i think.

 

[Hoother]

I don't know what to tell you other than talk to Calvin Klein and Victoria's Secret and tell them that.

I'll let them know they're wrong. They try to be sexy and just fail so hard. Lara walked the VS show and got called ugly, Doutzen just looks like a man all the time... You probably think I'm a hypocrite for telling Liranyana she's too biased, but you must be blind if you find them sexy.

 

[AlwaysNicky]

Gisele never was NO.1 on sexist list

Why u think doutzen looks like a man???i don't get that
even i don't think she is sexy ,but she is VS angel and she got many so-called sexy covers before she pregnanted.they put her on the list all because of these reasons i guess.

 

[michelabella]

Doutzen post baby looks less muscly. Plus the average male/the sexy market mostly just want the girl to look healthy/curvy with some T&A. Freja may be sexy by some people's opinion but does she do VS/GQ/SI/bikini work? bc I think that's what the sexy list is all about, not how sexy we think someone does or doesn't look.

There are no curves here, just muscle. I am curvier than this and I have the body of a 12 year old.

Sasha is on the same rank as Abbey, and Abbey's campaigns always come out later than the other girls for some reason. She probably has 5 more coming out soon. Abbey is still very much in demand and she's still working a lot. You're so biased and I'm not even sure if you realize it.

Abbey has more camapigns ? really
as far as I know almost all the major campaigns are out, she only has Gucci
bias ? I'm just telling the truth and Sasha is more established model compared to Abbey tehy are not on the same rank !

I haven't seen any new abbey eds or covers lately, probably concentrating on her music career, well good for her

Abbey has had 2 Vogue and a Numero cover in just the last three months.

models.com is not updated with the models current campaign work load
add Paul & Joe F/W 11 and Biotherm Contract from Sasha
as for Joan Smalls ? because her work and no magazine cover is a Joke to per in Top 5, totally undeserving
if there is someone moving up it should be Constance and Liu Wen

if you base it on work campaigns, then Sasha has more than Abbey or Joan in their combined in S/S and F/W
there is a differnce in the work per season by these three. Sasha has maintained, that is every seaon always getting more than 1 blue chip campaign
It has always been like that for Sasha, not sure about Abbey or Joan ? well she has Estee Lauder contract that's not a merit for Top 4
then Constance and Liu should very well move in who has done more imo

Lara and Doutzen have less of a mainstream sex appeal than Freja though. Doutzen's body is so masculine it's scary..

Boooring, we get it It's not about what you think, it's what about the clients think and they would laugh at your face if you tell them you think they aren't sexy. And if you don't think they are sexy, fine, but lots of them do. Lara is very sexy. She got a great body and lots of sexappeal. Maybe you're more attracted by someone with less curves like Freja (cause you mention her), but no need to pull others down. Also, there were enough who find Lara sexy as angel. It's all based on opinions.
i don't find Doutzen sexy but she got such a beautiful angel face that it make perfect sence she is a angel.

Luxx since you are here: why isn't Marloes Horst on the list? She is sexy and she works for tons of lingeriebrands like VS and she does more sexy work then HF work.

My top 5:
1. Lara
2. Anja and Freja
3. Karlie/Sasha
4. ALK
5. Joan

And when Lara is not n1. I guess
1. Anja
2. Freja
or
1. Freja
2. Anja
rest the same.
