MDC (Models.com) Rankings

Should've added Yasmin to the top 50 as well. I don't get why that hasn't happened yet. Just this year she's already had a Vogue Japan and China cover.

Should've let Marte in the top 50. She was in the Celine S/S 2017 campaign but MDC never added her name to it.

agreed. Models.com is not reliable at all.

^ i've always wondered why certain models have all their work painstakingly added to their profiles and others only get less than half their campaigns and shoots added and credited. Is anyone else surprised Coco Rocha is still a 'money girl'. i feel like aside from some magazine shoots which pay nothing and occasional print and runway work, she's probably not earning like the other girls on that list?

Also, how can they have people like Heidi Klum on the 'Legends' list, and not have girls like Paulina and Elle? Both had more crossover success in commercial and HF than Heidi and much more lucrative careers if you discount VS, which was basically Heidi's only client for most of her career. Same goes for tyra banks.

I was surprised finding Line Brems e Lina Berg in the MONEY list..is it a joke??
I'm sure they both easily pay their bills, but are their big bookings so consistent and regular as other models?

And what about Ginta Lapina, Alana Zimmer, Aline Weber? They all have their major moment (especially Ginta with her YSL beauty contract and Aline with Tom Ford), but now I can't see them as big "client keepers" using a MDC definition.

And Ginta with her recent divorce $$$ I am guessing La Senza pays pretty well also.

Seriously, I would love to know more about what models really make as it seems to be more than I thought. For example, I am surprised that models like Magdalena and Aymeline are able to support themselves and live seemingly lavish lifestyles when they don't seem to do that many big jobs, and that Hanne Gaby was recently able to buy her second property in NYC in the space of a few years. Only a few examples, but I guess it is hard to gauge where models make their money and how much they really make. How do girls like Kasia, Anna S and Kinga keep afloat?

Can we consider this as Gigi being number one in Top 50 list?

my screen from models.com

If so, shame on Industry for letting this happen.

Just noticed they took Alessandra Ambrosio off the Money Girls list - any other names they took off? I can only identify her.

Veruschka was added to the Legends list.

 

[Armani]

About time, tbh. ^ Can't believe she wasn't even ranked all this time...
They took Hanaa Ben Abdesslem off Money Girls too, don't know how long she was taken off but I know Ale's is recent. (Now it's time to take off all those random names in the Top Earners section and update Top 50 to include Yasmin, He Cong and Camille, MDC!)

 

[guimon]

What Camille? Hurel? For the top 50? You serious?

I think it's too soon for that. She should be added to the hot list first. That would be more fitting.

Still dont get why Yasmin didn't make it to the top 50 yet. So long overdue.

I'm amazed she (Camille) hasn't ever been ranked, but I think it's time for Top 50 already. She's been dominating HF for a while now, and booking lots of work outside the runway as well. I wouldn't be surprised if she started out on Hot List like the vast majority of the girls on Top 50 though - Sora Choi was on the Hot List for the longest time, even though she was deserving of that Top 50 spot for a while as well.

 

[littlekiki]

if they haven't ranked Camille at this point, they never will. Unless she gets a huge job that gets her lots of attention.

 

[niknak]

I guess MDC is in the process of updating rankings(I wonder how long that will take.) A few girls gone from Hot List and Top 50, but Faretta is there now.

 

[Armani]

Faretta's in both Top 50 and Hot List? I didn't even know that was possible, I'm sure they'll remove her from Hot List soon.

They also changed the main pics for the rankings, Taylor Hill is the main pic for Top 50.

 

[mathiaskatz]

Added to top 50:
Faretta

Removed from top 50:
Adrienne Jueliger, Julia Hafstrom (Money List), Olympia Campbell

48 girls in Top 50

Removed from Hot List:
Aamito Lagum, Alice Metza, Caitie Greene, Heather Kemesky, Jamilla Hoogenboom, Lily Stewart, Pooja Mor, Steffy Argelich

39 girls in the Hot list (inc. Faretta, 38 without)

 

[anlabe32]

Should've taken the opportunity to remove Ally Ertel, Aya Jones, Damaris Goddrie, Estella Boersma and Greta from the Top 50 as well and add Birgit, Luna and Yasmin.

 

[Armani]

This is good change, but I agree ^ there's still lots of girls in Top 50 that need to be taken out and switched with more deserving (& relevant) talent.

 

[guimon]

Should've taken the opportunity to remove Ally Ertel, Aya Jones, Damaris Goddrie, Estella Boersma and Greta from the Top 50 as well and add Birgit, Luna and Yasmin.

+ Dilone, Julia, Karly, Roos and Othilia.

and add Cara, Grace, Ellen, Charlee, Cong He, Mayowa and Sara Grace.

 

[billiejbob]

I'm genuinely intrigued, why do people care about MDC rankings anymore? I used to love MDC and its rankings when they kept their lists simple and accurate but now they're all over the place and irrelevant.

Totally agree! MDC is always so late.
