Britain has produced some incredibly successful supermodels who have gone on to achieve global acclaim, and earn millions of pounds a year.
According to new data compiled by international lingerie brand
Bluebella, there is a new highest earning supermodel in Britain — earning an epic £8 million a year salary, or £22,000 a day.

The ranking is in ascending order, based on the estimated amount of cash they brought in with contracts over the last year.

9. Erin O'Connor — £1.5 million. 39-year-old O'Connor is a veteran British model, she has worked for Giorgio Armani, Julien Macdonald and Jean-Paul Gaultier. Karl Lagerfeld described her as 'one of the best models in the world.'

7. Edie Campbell — £2 million. Lesser known Campbell, 26, is a firm favourite with Vogue, she has also modelled for Chanel, Burberry and Hermes.
6. Georgia May Jagger — £2.5 million. Mick Jagger's youngest daughter, 25-year-old Georgia May is famous for her smile, which makes her one of the most distinctive models in the world. She has high-paying deals with Rimmel, among other brands.
5. Naomi Campbell — £3 million. 47-year-old Campbell is still a big name in the industry after being at the top for three decades. She is still in demand with labels like Gap, who signed her in February 2017.

3. Kate Moss — £5 million. Kate, the queen of the catwalk, lost her place as Britain's highest paid supermodel this year. The 43-year-old's earnings have dipped after she dumped her long-term model agency Storm to go it alone.
