The top 20 models of 2011 - 1

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.
 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).
 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.
 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.
 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.
 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'.
 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.
 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.
 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.
