Note: Before Img Models, Inc. can hire foreign workers permanently or temporarily, it must file labor certifications with the Department of Labor(DOL), demonstrating that it is paying the required wage for the positions in the geographic region where the jobs are located. Above table reports Labor Condition Application(LCA) for h2B visa and Labor Certification(LC) for green card filed by Img Models, Inc.. The data only indicates the number of applications filed by Img Models, Inc.. It does not mean that Img Models, Inc. actually got the visa and hired the workers.

Our LCA data includes LCA submitted for not only new employment, but also continuation or change in previously approved employment, new concurrent employment, change in employer and amended petition. Usually, only LCA for new employment needs h2B Visa quota if it is not cap-exempt.

Img Models, Inc. has applied for 1 LC and LCA from fiscal year 2019 to 2021. But this does not mean they really hired 1 foreign workers during this period. The visa applications might have been denied. When an employee renews or transfers his h2B visa or change work location under some circumstances, he will also file a new LCA application.

Department of Labor(DOL) typically certifies more than 3 times the number of foreign work requests than the number of h2B visas issued by USCIS. So there is no one to one relationship between the number of workers certified by the DOL and the number of h2B work visas issued by the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS).

10 models who earn the most in the world

09/30/2020

It is difficult to find a girl who would not dream of becoming a model as a child. The images that sparkle on the covers of fashion publications attract the attention of men and make other women burn with envy.

But only a select few succeed in the mobile business. The world’s highest paid models make huge amounts of money, but they have to abide by incredibly strict industry rules.

Top 10 models in terms of income

The modeling business acquired its current shape in the 20th century, although the industry has reached our days in a slightly modified form. Now the model is not the girl who should sparkle on the catwalk. Increasingly, these are the representatives of the fair sex, whose faces can be seen on the covers of magazines and in the most popular Instagram accounts.

However, models are still subject to stringent requirements. Only those who can endure this tough game achieve serious success and become one of the richest people on the planet.

10. Doutzen Kroes – $8 million

The girl was born in the Netherlands in 1985. Even as a child, she was attracted to highly paid models, and immediately after graduation, she decided to send her pictures to the agency. Attention was paid to Doutzen, and in 2005 she became the best model of the site of the famous Vogue magazine.

Expensive contracts were not long in coming. In 2006, Cruz became the face of the cosmetics company L’Oreal Paris, and now he is actively collaborating with the watch manufacturer Piaget. The career success story of Doutzen is interesting because the girl managed to break into the modeling business on her own. This is a rather rare case for today, the more surprising is its success, which is confirmed by an annual income of $ 8 million.

9. Joan Smalls – $8.5 million

Puerto Rican girl who was born in 1981. As a child, Joan was not spoiled, as the family often did not have enough money to meet basic needs. But the dream of becoming a model haunted her all the years. The girl realized that success can only be achieved in a big city. Therefore, Smalls moved to New York after graduation.

The first contract with a modeling agency dates back to 2007. Although then Joan was not such a sought-after girl that she is now. She has a lucrative contract with IMG Models for her current success. Cooperation with this agency helped to attract attention and become a representative of the Givenchy fashion house. Later, the girl took part in several Victoria’s Secret shows, and now she has an annual income of $ 8.5 million thanks to contracts with Estee Lauder and Moschino.

8. Bella Hadid – $8.5 million

The new wave top model was born in 1996. By the age of 22, a girl of Palestinian origin has managed to achieve incredible success. Hadid is a representative of the famous fashion houses Bulgari and Dior, and also has a contract with Tag Heuer.

Bella’s career would hardly have been possible without the participation of her parents. Yolanda, Bella’s mother, was also known as a model and TV presenter. The father, in turn, is a dollar millionaire. Therefore, as a child, young Hadid could choose any path to develop her life.

Bella signed her first contract in 2014. She was noticed by the IMG Models agency, with which the highest paid models in the world regularly cooperate.

The following year, Hadid won the Breakout Award, becoming the most promising representative of her profession. And although her annual income is inferior to that of her father, Bella is in the leading roles in the modeling business.

7. Gigi Hadid – $9.5 million

The famous model and older sister of Bella Hadid was born at 1995 year. But Gigi began taking her first steps in the business at the age of 2. Then she became a representative of the Baby Guess line. True, in the future, Hadid decided to focus on her studies, and the next contract was signed only in 2011. Collaboration with the IMG Models agency helped Gigi become the face of the Guess brand.

Hadid made her professional runway debut in 2014. In the show Desigual, she became a prominent figure, after which she received an offer from Tom Ford, a famous designer and filmmaker. In collaboration with him, she starred in a photo shoot with Arnold Schwarzenegger, and by 2015 she became one of the most expensive models on the planet.

The brands Versace and Prada wanted to recruit her for their promotional campaigns, and Gigi happily accepted the offers. Now her income is estimated at $ 9.5 million, which is slightly more than her sister.

6. Cara Delevingne – $10 million

British fashion model born in London in 1992. Her career path is not like the story of Cinderella, as Kara spent her childhood in a circle of well-to-do parents. Her grandfather was the head of the State Historic Buildings and Monuments Commission, her mother was a Selfridges shopper, and her father was a housing designer. The girl was trained in a private school and from childhood she aspired to become a popular person.

Kara’s active career began in 2012 when she signed a contract with Burberry Beauty. In parallel, Delevingne played episodic roles in films. But the modeling business continued to form the basis of her wealth. Moreover, in the same 2012, the girl was recognized as the “model of the year”. She instantly flew into the Forbes lists, but still for several years she did not get into the rating, where the highest paid models were presented. Now her annual income reaches $ 10 million.

5. Gisele Bundchen – $10 million

The most famous model in Brazil and possibly the whole world. Giselle has been considered the most sought-after in her industry for almost 10 years and regularly occupies a leading position in the Forbes ranking. But with age, the 39-year-old Bundchen has lost ground, which, however, does not prevent her from earning $ 10 million a year.

Giselle’s family could not be called rich. The girl was born in a small town, where her favorite pastime was visiting the sports section. The start of Bundchen’s modeling career is considered to be the incident that occurred at McDonald’s when the girl was 14 years old. A representative of Elite Management drew attention to her, and Giselle gladly accepted him. Then the career took off. Bundchen has become the face of Dolce & Gabbana and Versace, and now she produces clothes under her own label.

4. Rosie Huntington-Whiteley – $11.5 million

In April 1987, one of the richest models in the UK today was born. Rosie started her career while still in college. At the age of 16, she sent her profile to the Profile Models agency, although she initially dreamed of becoming a public relations specialist. Nevertheless, the bosses of the company saw in the girl a huge prospect in the modeling business.

Rosie debuted in 2004 at New York Fashion Week. This stunning success gave the girl contracts with magazines such as Elle Girl and Teen Vogue. This was followed by collaborations with the brands Ralph Lauren and Topshop. By 2019year, her track record includes contracts with most of the leading companies in the world, as well as her own line of clothing.

3. Chrissy Teigen – $11.5 million

American born in 1985 in Utah. The girl has Thai and Norwegian roots, which greatly influenced her attractiveness. In a surf shop in a California city where Chrissy worked, a photographer noticed her. The girl entered into an agreement with IMG Models and began to actively participate in fashion shows.

Teigen has repeatedly been the face of the brands Gillette Venus and Nike. But Chrissy decided not to stop at the modeling business. In 2013, she was chosen as the host of the reality show Model Employee, and a year later, the girl starred in a sketch-com about her life. By 2019, Teigen’s popularity has reached incredible heights: the girl has 20 million followers on Instagram and dozens of offers from various companies.

2. Karlie Kloss – $13 millionyear and immediately took second place in the list of the highest paid models in the world. The 27-year-old girl spent her childhood in St. Louis, where she began dancing.

Entering the ballet academy, Carly began to attract attention. Representatives of the Elite Model Management agency found a great prospect in her and signed a contract.

Kloss first appeared on the cover of The Vogue in 2007. After that, the girl was invited to take part in the filming of advertising promos for Nina Ricci and Bvlgari. By 2011, Carly had a whole stack of offers from companies dreaming of working with her, which made it possible to call the American one of the most sought-after models in the world.

1. Kendall Jenner – $22.5 million

Kendall Jenner is the world’s highest paid model by a wide margin. And she’s only 23 years old. True, the popularity of the girl is explained by the fact that she spent her childhood in the family of TV star Caitlyn Jenner and businesswoman Chris Houghton.

Kendall’s modeling career starts in 2010. The 13-year-old girl was noticed by the Wilhelmina Models agency, after which Jenner began acting for youth magazines. In the same year, young Kendall became a member of a resonant photo shoot by Nick Saglembeni, who took the girl in a very frank form. True, this made many famous brands pay attention to her, including Estee Lauder, Adidas and Calvin Klein. Nevertheless, such an impressive income is explained, among other things, by participation in popular American shows.

Conclusion

It is almost impossible for ordinary girls to reach the top of the modeling business. The vast majority of the ranking representatives were born into wealthy families, which explains their continued success. However, even here there are exceptions, showing that even without connections, you can earn several million dollars.

How models make money at New York Fashion Week

September 11, 2017, 13:53
Style

100%

In America, the first fashion week of the top shows belonging to the “big four” is held. What does the modeling career of New York Fashion Week employees look like from the inside and how much do they receive – in the material of Gazeta.Ru.

Twice a year America’s hottest girls come to New York Fashion Week to make money. It seems to most ordinary people that all that is required of models is to walk around in beautiful clothes and drink champagne, receiving fabulous money for this. In fact, it’s not like that at all. Only a few receive six-figure amounts, while the rest are content with penny salaries or even get stuck in debt to modeling agencies.

Work for Thanks

According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, a model in New York earns $48,000 a year and an average hour of work costs $23. But these are statistics. In fact, “secret fees” are common in the modeling industry – additional agency fees that are charged directly by the client. Commissions are deducted from the final pay of the model, which the girls are often not even informed about. According to ex-model and CEO of Alliance Models Sarah Ziff, in this area there is a particularly acute lack of financial transparency. “The amount that the model receives for her work is agreed between the agency and the client. However, agencies do not always notify models of the expected rate of payment or compensation before the conclusion of the contract, ”the Daily Beast quoted her as saying. Ziff notes that for 8 hours of work, instead of the amount agreed in advance, she received only photos for a portfolio or a brand gift card.

However, gift cards cannot be used to pay rent and buy groceries for dinner.

The second problem is the debts girls get into. If an agency needs a model to travel, for example, from Arizona to New York, they will pay her air travel expenses, pay her photographers for shooting and retouching, and rent her an apartment. But all this is done on credit, so the model must return the funds invested in it. At the same time, there is no guarantee that the girl’s career will justify the upfront costs. This story happened to 23-year-old ex-model Kelly Mittendorf. “I never made good money modeling. At some point, I had debts to the agencies with which I collaborated, ”she said in an interview with The New York Times. While working, the debt of the model to the agency amounted to a five-figure sum.

Dozens of girls’ and young people’s stories of unpaid wages and industry abuse can be found on models.com. For example, London Fashion Week 2016 participant Sidney Gaston told how she was forced to participate in the show during her illness, and after that she was not even paid her salary. “During the rehearsal, I was very dizzy, I went up to the director and said that I could not continue participating, otherwise I would faint.

In response, they told me that I had to go on the podium, otherwise I would not be paid. But I still didn’t get paid.”0005

, writes the model.

The situation is even more complicated for underage models. According to Sarah Ziff, at a young age, girls still do not know how to negotiate, which agencies actively use. Often, models receive fees late, after complaints about non-payment, or are left with nothing at all. “The workforce in this industry is female and young. If the models were predominantly middle-aged white men, they would be treated very differently, ”she clarified.

Who will give money

Each girl decides for herself how to make herself known in the modeling industry. Some cooperate with agencies, others go to auditions themselves. However, working “for yourself” does not guarantee financial stability either. According to model Kaileen Hill Araki, the industry is now being actively transformed under the influence of social networks. Street castings come to the fore, in which models participate who do not cooperate with agencies and do not know how much their work costs. “I have seen so many street casting models work 15-18 hour days for $150 just to work with a good brand or photographer,” she writes on models.com. “While an agency model can earn $1,500 for the same day of shooting. ”

Modeling agencies sometimes also cheat and pay only one of the participants for the working day. According to Sarah Ziff, the designers booked two models for the 10-hour shoot in Istanbul, but one of the models received an email stating that not everyone would get paid. “You will be paid (amount removed) for the day, but do not say anything to the other model. She will not be paid,” the message said. Ziff noted that both models worked the same amount of time and both were professionals.

In other matters, some models still manage to make a name for themselves in the modeling business and earn money on it. So, Gisele Bündchen is still in the lead in the modeling business and earns $ 30.5 million, Adriana Lima receives $ 10.5 million, and the current style icons Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid have $ 10 and $ 9. million respectively. Also on the list of the highest paid models are Karlie Kloss, Cara Delevingne, Candice Swanepoel and Liu Wen.
