Several Paris Fashion Week video viewings later, and she&#8217;s got the bug to wear it all; to be there <em>in it</em>. Fortunately her razor sharp jawline and chameleon abilities have allowed just that and she skyrocketed her to the fashion stratosphere.. Her first season out, <em>she walked 30 shows without knowing a lick of English</em>. Which I suppose proves the point that you <em>can</em> get by on just your good looks (and in this case, polite, intuitive silence and a fearsome smize). If you turn the tables and find yourself in Shanghai without knowing a damn word in Chinese, check what Fei Fei Sun advises you eat, see and shop in her city.<span

Upon imparting her sartorial knowledge to a few women in the community, she was able to start her own company: <strong>Retalhos Cariocas</strong>. She takes scraps of factories&#8217; leftover fabrics and uses them to transform the country&#8217;s ubiquitous Havaianas into gladiators, booties, wrap shoes and more. All at once, Silvinha is giving fabric <em>and</em>her neighbors a second chance at life.<span

The 17-year-old pop punk netted $53 million last year and dances his way to a debut on the list at the #3 position.</p><p>Rounding out the Top 10 are <a

It is needless to say that stumbling upon Forbes&#8217; 2009 list of the most successful male models was not only a sight for sore eyes but rather informative about the business of the modeling industry.</p><p>While the industry is dominated by doll-faced, lanky females, male models with more classic looks tend to be the most successful. In the midst of a recession, agencies have had to renew older contracts to save money, thusly narrowing the types of men represented. The Cole Mohrs and Ash Stymests, although trendy &#8220;image guys,&#8221; tend to fall once they&#8217;ve been used and seen enough. In addition, those who have been branded to a fragrance campaign tend to endure a low profile in the industry since such campaigns are so publicly widespread.</p><p>I&#8217;ll admit, it is a bit disheartening to see some of my favorites so low, or even nonexistent, on the list, but based on magazine covers and spreads, advertising campaigns, contracts and runway shows over the past two years, here is Forbes&#8217; most successful male models:</p><p>1.
