Christy Turlington

Christy Turlington was described as “the most beautiful woman in the world” by American Vogue Magazine’s Grace Coddington. This was due to her unique symmetrical face and pillow-lipped smile. In 1991, she earned a whopping $800,000 for a 12-day campaign with Maybelline, making her one of the highest-paid models of the time. She graced the cover of popular magazines hundreds of times and represented fashion powerhouse Calvin Klein Eternity’s campaign both in 1989 and 2014. She currently operates a nonprofit organization known as Every Mother Counts, which places focus on women’s healthy pregnancy and safe birth.
