Karlie Kloss, Stella Tennant and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley have all enjoyed a year in the spotlight, but who else made our top 20?
Arizona Muse
There was no escaping Arizona Muse's bushy brows and heart-shaped face this year, be it from a billboard modelling for high street giant Next, or a Louis Vuitton ad campaign. The mother-of-one, who hails from New Mexico, has fast become the fashion editor's model of choice, clocking up editorials in the American, Russian, Australian and French editions of Vogue - to name but a few.
Stella Tennant
Tennant's 40th year proved to be a winning one: after gracing the cover of Italian Vogue and appearing in autumn campaigns for Zara, Etro and Reed Krakoff, the Scottish-born mother of four was crowned Model of the Year at the British Fashion Awards.
Cara Delevingne
19-year old Cara has come in to her own this year. Continuing her role as the face of Burberry, the bushy-browed Londoner took to the catwalk to open and close the Prorsum spring/summer 2012 show with gusto.
Daphne Groeneveld
One of the breakout new faces of the year, Dutch Daphne walked 48 runway shows for spring/summer 2012 alone. She has also covered V magazine and Love Magazine and was picked to star in the Versace for H&M campaign.
Lindsey Wixson
Wixson's bee stung lips and full cheeks make her face unmistakeable. A catwalk favourite, she too starred in the Versace for H&M campaign, all while remaining a sweet, modest girl from Kansas, USA.
Karlie Kloss
After clocking up numerous editorials, ad campaigns and catwalk appearances, Kloss recently hit the big time: she was chosen to walk in the Victoria's Secret show in November. Shortly after, the 19-year-old was photographed by Steven Miesel for Vogue Italia, in what is a soon-to-be-iconic editorial, proclaiming her the new 'Body'.
Gisele Bundchen
Still regarded as the highest earning and most powerful supermodel (she earned over $45 million last year) Gisele enjoyed cover appearances on 13 glossy covers this year. And the work keeps pouring in: Versace, Givenchy and Salvatore Ferragamo have all picked her to front their spring/summer 2012 campaigns.
Lara Stone
Ranked by models.com as their top model, 2011 has proved to be another work-filled year for Dutch-born Stone, with over 12 glossy covers and campaigns for Calvin Klein, Tom Ford and Prada Perfume.
Freja Beja
Erickson Countless catwalk appearances coupled with campaigns for Chanel, Louis Vuitton, H&M and Valentino has left Freja one of the most in-demand models of the moment (not to mention the ever-increasing Vogue covers).
Kelly Mittendorf
The face of Prada's autumn/winter 2011 campaign has put newcomer Kelly firmly on the radar. With her feline eyes and strong jaw, she's defintely one to watch.
