Anja Rubik is ranked as the world’s most influential model

Gisele might be the richest, but new research carried out by industry website The Fashion Spot has revealed Polish supermodel Anja Rubik is ranked as the most influential model in fashion since April last year. And it’s clear to see why.

The 26-year-old stunner has already posed on an impressive 59 magazine covers and appeared on 43 designers’ runways in a mere 12 months.

Anja has been held as the most in-demand model according to The Fashion Spot ranking, and subsequently has the most Twitter followers at a staggering 54,508, and the highest number of internet searches for her name with 2.67 million.

Chanel favourite Freja Beha Erichsen comes in at second place with 65 magazine covers and 51 shows, and despite appearing in just two shows last year, Dutch model Lara Stone takes third place with 47 covers.

Next Model Abbey Lee Kershaw has also been ranked at number four in the hot list, with 48 magazine covers, 53 shows and over three million internet searches under her belt.

And after modelling for the likes of Chanel and Tom Ford, it’s no wonder Abbey has been hailed Australia’s biggest model export since Elle Macpherson.

Keep up the good work, ladies.
