Professional modeling remains a pretty good gig if you can get it, and for these ten models, the work was especially good. These are the ten highest-paid models of 2018, based on earnings from June, 2017 to June, 2018. Altogether, these ten models pulled in a collective $113 million – here are the individual models on the list:
- Kendall Jenner : $22.5 Million

Kendall Jenner isn’t the top earning Kardashian of 2018, but she is the top earning model, which is almost as good.
- Karlie Kloss : $13 Million
Karlie Kloss was able to pull in an annual $13 million – reportedly the most she’s ever made in a year – thanks in part to a massive social media presence.

Hadid number two earned a flat million bucks less than her sister, which is still good enough to tie for eighth place on this list.

Bella’s eighth-place slot is shared by Joan Smalls, who’s been in the business since 2007.
