Tyra Banks
Tyra Banks became the first Black woman to appear on the covers of both the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and the Victoria's Secret catalog during her modeling career in the 1990s, breaking significant representation barriers within two of the industry's most prominent commercial platforms. Banks's later transition into television, creating and hosting "America's Next Top Model" beginning in 2003, gave her an unusually direct and lasting influence shaping how a generation of aspiring models and the broader public understood the modeling industry's inner workings and standards. Her successful pivot from modeling into television production, hosting, and business ventures demonstrated one of the most extensive career transitions of any former supermodel, building a media and business career that ultimately extended well beyond and outlasted her original modeling fame. Tyra Banks's combination of her barrier-breaking modeling career firsts and her industry-shaping "America's Next Top Model" television franchise has made her one of the most influential supermodels in modern fashion and media history.
VS
Cindy Crawford
Cindy Crawford rose to prominence in the late 1980s, becoming one of the defining faces of the original supermodel era, distinguished partly by her natural, athletic look and signature mole above her lip, which she declined to have removed despite some industry pressure to do so. Crawford's 1992 Pepsi commercial, in which she simply walked past a group of awestruck children while drinking a Pepsi, became one of the most iconic and frequently referenced advertisements of the decade, demonstrating a model's crossover commercial appeal extending well beyond print fashion work. Her successful transition into business ventures, including a long-running skincare and home furnishings line, reflected a broader trend of top supermodels leveraging their personal brand recognition into lasting commercial enterprises beyond modeling work itself. Cindy Crawford's combination of her iconic, widely referenced 1992 Pepsi commercial and her successful transition into her own commercial business ventures has made her one of the most recognizable and commercially enduring supermodels in fashion history.
