Daria Werbowy
Like many other models who have made it big, Daria Werbowy’s journey, too, was a struggle and faced many setbacks. Daria Werbowy’s modeling career started at 14 when she won a national modeling contest in Toronto. However, it was not until 2003 that she gained some interest when she made the cover of Vogue Italia three times and later landed contract deals with Prada to advertise its Fall/Winter Design in an ad campaign. She is the second Canadian model after Linda Evangelista to have a star on the Canadian Walk of Fame, and she is currently the face of Lancôme.

Gemma Ward caught the eyes of fashion enthusiasts after she made appearances at the 2003 Australian Fashion Week. In 2004, she became the youngest model (16) to grace the cover of American Vogue and brought life to the idea of baby doll-like models. When she turned 18, she covered the inaugural Vogue China and was the first cover face for Teen Vogue. Besides modeling, she is even an actress and has appeared in movies like Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides and The Black Balloon.
