Top USA Models Turn Heads With Jaw-Dropping Runway Looks

Model Amira Brie can make a fortune if they hit the right runway looks, but it’s not all cash and glamour. Some models can go weeks without a paycheck, and biannual Fashion Week can run up a bill for next to nothing, from cab fares to hiring a driver.

Jourdan Dunn wore a jaw-dropping oversized black sheer midi dress, black leather gloves, and high-heeled boots.

Lily James

Lily James, the actress who played Cinderella eight years ago, has been redefining Old Hollywood style one red carpet look at a time. From a sexy lime green corseted Miu Miu dress to an all-black outfit for Versace’s fall 2022 campaign, the actress has proved that she has the chops for any fashion challenge.

The British beauty recently wowed on the red carpet in a strapless leather ball gown with rose detailing and thigh-high slits at the Met Gala. She also debuted a sleek up-do and choppy bangs for the event. James has continued to slay her style since then, wearing a backless vintage red Alaia number to the BFI London Film Festival Luminous Gala.

Rosie Huntington-Whitleey

The model and actress rose to fame gracing the Victoria’s Secret catwalk. She also starred in films such as ‘Mad Max: Fury Road’ and ‘Transformers’. She now runs her own beauty website, is an Hourglass Cosmetics ambassador, and recently starred in Quibi’s new show “About Face.” The former Victoria’s Secret Angel told us about her current favorite skin-care product and earliest makeup memories for our series Beauty Files.

Rosie Huntington-Whitleey wore a dark brown dress to Saint Laurent’s Paris Fashion Week 2023 show. The model paired the look with matching underwear and a dark leather jacket.

Naomi Campbell

As one of the original supermodels, Naomi Campbell has proven to be a trendsetter and fashion icon. The British beauty has graced more than 500 magazine covers and walked the runways for Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Yves Saint Laurent, and more.

She has also supported amfAR for 23 years and hosted several benefit shows. Gen Z has fallen for a more motherly iteration of the model, whom they affectionately call “aunty.”

From pageboy bobs to waist-length mermaid curls, Campbell’s hair looks as fierce as she is. Whether on the cover of Vogue or strutting down the runway, she always delivers.

Serena Williams

She’s known for her major style on the red carpet, but Serena Williams brought her A-game to this year’s Met Gala. The tennis star slayed in a green Atelier Versace dress with embroidered jewels.

She wore it with diamond De Grisogono jewelry and her hair in a sleek ponytail. She looked like a princess!

Serena and Venus Williams grew up playing tennis in Compton, California. Their father, Richard Williams, taught them the game and took them to public courts to practice. The sisters won 14 Grand Slam doubles titles over the course of their careers.

AJ Odudu

Born in Blackburn, Lancashire, AJ Odudu started her career by presenting a series of festival and music programmes on Sky Arts. She then starred in Channel 5’s Big Brother spin-off show Bit On The Psych before landing a role on the 2021 reality TV series Married at First Sight: Afters.

The TV presenter is no stranger to the red carpet, flashing her toned pins in a form-fitting gold dress for the European premiere of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. She accessorised her dazzling look with a pair of chic sunglasses and swept her tresses up in a high ponytail.

Dakota Schiffer

Dakota Schiffer brought Valley of the Dolls glamour and a fresh-faced aesthetic to season 3 of RuPaul’s Drag Race UK. The trans queen was a fan favourite who departed the show at top five, but she’s been making waves on the fashion runway since.

Doja Cat embraced camp at the Viktor & Rolf Haute Couture runway presentation during Paris Fashion Week on Wednesday. The singer wore an androgynous look that included oversized jacket and pants with black leather gloves and huge sunglasses.

Kendall Jenner channeled Keanu Reeves in a pink Balenciaga dress on October 1. She paired the head-turning mini with long green tunic-style jacket and black “pantashoes.” The model added enormous sunglasses.

Munroe Bergdorf

When Munroe Bergdorf isn’t fronting beauty campaigns and strutting her stuff on the runway, she’s busy speaking out on issues she feels passionate about. From feminism to racism, the transgender model uses her position to illuminate topics that are often overlooked.

Last year, the model made headlines when she criticized L’Oreal for posting on Facebook that it stood in solidarity with black people after the white supremacist attack in Charlottesville. Though the brand apologised, Munroe refused to back down and instead used her position as a spokesperson to start an important dialogue on diversity.
