But the fact is that some are just dreaming, while others are making it happen and achieving tremendous success. It is believed that Russian girls have the most beautiful appearance, and it is difficult to argue with that. This is confirmed by the most famous Russian models.

# 1. Natalya Vodyanova

A great example is Natalya Vodyanova ... Who would have thought that some vegetable saleswoman could win thousands of hearts with her beauty and become a famous and respected model.

In the market where she worked, the girl was noticed by one of the representatives of the modeling agency. Soon she conquered all the catwalks of Paris and became the loving wife of Lord Portman.

At the moment, Natalia Vodianova is not only a supermodel, but also the mother of five beautiful children. She also does charity work - financially helps children from poor families.

It is interesting:

Natalia Vodianova is one of the famous three Russian models, by whose last names the 2000s were called “the era of three Vs” (Natalia Vodianova, Anna Vyalitsyna and Evgeny Volodina).

No. 2. Anna Vyalitsyna

A native of Nizhny Novgorod Anna Vyalitsyna , better known in the West under the pseudonym Anne V.

As soon as Anya started her career (at the age of 15), she was immediately nicknamed "Russian princess" and was bombarded with job offers. There were covers, contracts, screenings ... and discussions in the yellow press. At first, Vyalitsyna was credited with an affair with Leonardo DiCaprio, which Anna denied. A little later, the press exaggerated the relationship with Adam Levine, the vocalist of the group Maroon 5, with whom the model had been dating for more than 2 years. And even later, information about the relationship of the supermodel with Adam - Kahan, vice president of Yahoo, was leaked to the press. Now Anna and Adam are raising their daughter Alaska and are absolutely happy.

It is interesting:

In 2002, the Chanel fashion house launched a new fragrance. Chanel Chance had to support the fashion house's image as one of the most important perfume giants. Anna Vyalitsyna was chosen as the face of the new fragrance for two years - from 2002 to 2004. The success of this new perfume was overwhelming. Chanel Chance was named the best fragrance in 2003 and 2004. And the image and character of Anna turned out to be so successful that in 2005 the Chanel company renewed the contract with her, leaving the model with the Chance symbol for several more years.

Anna Vyalitsyna became one of those fashion models who raised the rating of Russian models to incredible heights. Her agent Duncan Ord once said:

Russians have a work ethic that no other nationality has. Photographers and designers love their looks, but absolutely everyone appreciates their attitude. They give themselves completely to work and, no matter how old they are, they understand the rules of this business.

This absolute professional recognition made Russian models incredibly popular and opened the way for those who were destined to become the new "Russian wave" in the modeling business.

No. 3. Vlada Roslyakova

Russian supermodel Evgeniya Volodina - iconic model of the early 2000s. The muse of many photographers and designers.

This girl was actively talked about in 2009, when a rumor was launched about her affair with Mickey Rourke. However, even without Rourke, this native of Kazan is worthy of attention. Still - she began her modeling career at the age of 14, and at the age of 16 she was invited to work in Paris!

The rapid growth of Evgenia Volodina's career began in 2002 with photographs for the Italian version of Vogue magazine. After that, job offers simply fell on the novice model. One of her most famous works is the presentation of the Gucci company, where Natalia Vodianova also took part. An equally famous event was the participation in the presentation of the Victoria's Secrets and the Pirelli calendar.

No. 7. Irina Shayk

Irina Shayk- another of the representatives of the modeling business, who decided to take a pseudonym. Just like Poli, Irina shortened her surname Shaikhlislamova for convenience. A gorgeous, beautiful girl with Tatar roots from Yemanzhelinsk (Chelyabinsk region) won the hearts of judges at the Supermodel 2004 beauty contest in Chelyabinsk. With the victory in this competition, a modeling career began, first in Europe, then in the United States. In 2007, the model signs a contract with the Italian brand Intimissimi. Since 2010, Irina Shayk has been representing Intimissimi as a brand ambassador.

In the same year, the press started talking about the romance of the Russian beauty with the most titled footballer of our time - Cristiano Ronaldo. Their relationship lasted until 2015.

Since April 2015, the model has been in a relationship with actor Bradley Cooper. On March 21, 2017, the couple had a daughter, Lea de Sienne Sheik Cooper.

It is interesting:

She allocated funds for the repair of wards and the purchase of necessary things for refusenik children, and now she is actively cooperating with the Help.org charity fund, raising funds for operations for sick children.

Russian models very confidently declared themselves in the world in the early 2000s, during the so-called "era of three Vs", when Natalia Vodianova, Anna Vyalitsyna and Evgenia Volodina became one of the most demanded top models. Since then, it has become clear to everyone that Russian top models deserve the utmost attention.

From the USSR to the present day - we have collected Russian models that everyone is talking about

Regina Zbarskaya

The main "red queen" Soviet Union at home she received 76 rubles a month, while Pierre Cardin offered her contracts with incomes measured in thousands of dollars. Regina went to the first foreign shows of Soviet fashion designers in Paris, where everyone admired her and called her "the most beautiful weapon of the Kremlin." The leadership of the special services really enjoyed the popularity of Regina - so much so that she cost her her marriage to the graphic artist Lev Zbarsky. But the model's career was ruined not by divorce, but by the release of the memoirs of one of her lovers, a Yugoslav journalist, who told that she worked for the KGB and slept with influential people throughout the country.

But Valentina Yashina was called “Soviet Greta Garbo” for her Aryan appearance, inherited from her father, who was a Swede. She was going to become an operetta artist, but an unsuccessful romance with a stage partner put an end to a possible career. To achieve financial independence from her parents, she tried her hand at being a fashion model - and remained on the podium until the age of 65. She was always in the center of male attention: Joseph Kobzon and Nikolai Malakhov were simultaneously seeking her hands and hearts, but she preferred the second.

Galina was too good for censorship, which had to be reckoned with during the Soviet era. The student of the Shchukin School of the Fashion Industry had to pay attention when the country urgently needed an analogue of Twiggy. This was followed by the Moscow International Fashion Festival, after which the American Vogue has been seeking a photo shoot with Galina in the title role for almost two years. The shot, taken by photographer Arnaud de Rone, radically changed the attitude towards the model in the country. Milovskaya was kicked out of school and began to be called the defiler of state symbols. In 1974 she emigrated, but she never received the status of a top model in the West. But she married the banker Jean-Paul Dessertino, graduated from the Sorbonne and became a famous documentary filmmaker!

The eternal rival of Regina Zbarskaya nevertheless defeated her when she was instructed to represent the dress with the ideologically verified name "Russia" at the 1967 World Exhibition in Montreal. The foreign press began to call Mila "snegurochka". Together with her husband, artist Yuri Kuperman, she emigrated to London. There she got contracts with Dior and Givenchy, but lost her husband, who fell in love with Catherine Deneuve. Only her third marriage became successful for Mila: her husband-businessman Douglas Edwards helped her open her own business.

Today, the star of the films "Guest from the Future" and "Through Thorns to the Stars" would have every chance to interest Alessandro Michele and become one of the stars of the Gucci shows. But her career began in the 70s, amid the ridicule of classmates about her awkwardness, isolation and huge horn-rimmed glasses. In the cinema, she was invited exclusively to roles in science fiction films, but she did not refuse to work as a fashion model. The 90s broke out - and Elena got a job as a secretary to a businessman who was killed in front of her. The incident literally forced her to become a recluse.

Who today remembers that it was Tatiana who was one of the most successful models of Vyacheslav Zaitsev? The wife of the country's most famous director gained popularity thanks to her Slavic type, but he put her before a choice in the midst of her career. Nikita Mikhalkov packed her suitcases and offered an ultimatum: either life with him, or work as a fashion model. Tatiana was pregnant with her second child and the choice was obvious for her. She had to abandon the bright prospects on the eve of a trip abroad, in which both models and artists were advised to go, arguing that "there will be a lot of such nikitoks there." Well, Mikhalkov himself was simply tired of hiding his wife's work, which was not prestigious at that time, presenting her to everyone as a translator.

Her photo was placed on the cover of his own book about makeup by the famous makeup artist Kevin Okua, after which she was offered to appear for Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire. It was 1991 - and no one could prevent Isayeva from starting work abroad. She became the face of brands such as Escada and Guerlain, and then traded everything for a happy family life. She became the wife of hockey player Vladimir Malakhov and bore him children: Giorgio Armani's friends still say that you can spoil his mood just by mentioning the fact that Lyudmila changed her bright career to the role of a housewife.

Olga Pantyushenkova

One of the Russian models that Karl Lagerfeld was crazy about. She had to choose between education, countless invitations to shows and beauty contests - and she did it, signing a contract with the French agency Elite, in which she was advised to start with a haircut. The girl, who dropped out of school in 1993, went to work with Chanel, Saint Laurent, Dior and Thierry Mugler. She entered the top 15 highest paid models in the world and became the face of Cacharel's Eden fragrance. In February 2019, she died of cancer, and a couple of weeks later, pancreatic cancer claimed the life of Karl himself.

In 1992, Natalya went to the casting at the Vyacheslav Zaitsev Fashion House, not really knowing what exactly the models do. When she was offered a contract, she was incredibly surprised, since she had never considered herself a beauty. In 1999, she became the face of Saint Laurent's Opium and took part in the filming directed by David Lynch. It is believed that no one was able to repeat her signature walk on the catwalk.

In 1993, in the Look of the Year competition, Tatiana took third place, thanks to which she was offered a move to New York and a contract with the Elite agency. In 1995, she was included in the three most popular models of the same agency, along with Cindy Crawford and Linda Evangelista. Two years later, she starred for the Pirelli calendar with Monica Bellucci and Ines Sastre. Tatiana has worked with brands such as Yves Saint Laurent, Kenzo, Christian Dior, Victoria's Secret and Vivienne Westwood at various times.

Random pictures taken by photographer Alexei Vasiliev were seen in the Parisian agency Viva - this is how the career of one of the most successful models of the first half of the 2000s began. Another photographer, Stephen Meisel, contributed to the fact that in 2001 Volodina took part in 20 shows in one Fashion Week: such an indicator is sometimes only dreamed of even by well-promoted models. In the Gucci autumn-winter 2002 advertising campaign, she has already starred with another Russian star - Natalia Vodianova.

For her cold look, Sasha was nicknamed an alien in the fashion industry, but she has an incredibly kind and open character. Her career began thanks to her husband, artist and photographer Igor Vishnyakov, who was the first to insist that Pivovarov would be successful in modeling. Sasha is the record holder for the number of contracts concluded with the same brand: in 2005 Prada offered her cooperation for six seasons in advance. Sasha spends all his free time drawing and even arranges exhibitions from time to time.

Natasha's real surname is Polevshchikova, but the girl rightly decided that no one in the West would be able to remember her. She began her career at the Milan agency New Model Today: it was thanks to him that Charlize Theron became famous. In 2005 and 2006, she was entrusted with participating in Victoria's Secret shows, and soon she received contracts with Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Lanvin. In 2011, Natasha for the Pirelli calendar was filmed by Karl Lagerfeld - and this shooting only confirmed her status as one of the most popular models in the world. Together with Natalia Vodianova, she can be found in the rating of world icons of the fashion industry on the website Models.com.

“The dominance of the three Vs” - this is how the American and European publications called the popularity of Natalia Vodianova, Evgenia Volodina and Anna Vyalitsyna on the world catwalks in the early 2000s, which became the reason for increased interest in Russian models in the future. Today only Irina Shayk can compete with Natasha's fame all over the world. Vodianova's first husband was the British aristocrat Justin Portman, but since June 2011 she has been living in a civil marriage with the son of multibillionaire Bernard Arnault, Antoine. Natasha has four sons and one daughter. She successfully combines motherhood with filming for Elle and Vogue, working with Chanel, Gucci and Marc Jacobs, as well as organizing charity events and managing the Naked Heart Foundation.

In 2005, Valentina managed to "make" 50 shows in one season at Fashion Weeks in Paris, New York and Milan. In the same year, she took part in the iconic photographing of the Vanity Fair edition entitled "Slavs of Fashion, The New Beauties", dedicated to the beauty of Slavic girls: together with Valentina, one could see Natasha Poly, Natalia Vodianova and Evgenia Volodina in her. In 2005, Zelyaeva offered an exclusive contract to Ralph Lauren, which was then repeatedly extended. Today Valentina lives in New York and considers Paulie to be her best friend.

Anna is well known to American tabloids not only as a model. Her personal life could be followed with a breath: at the end of 2009, she was repeatedly seen in the company of Leonardo DiCaprio (although the couple in every possible way denied the relationship), then Anna met for two years with Adam Levine, the frontman of Maroon 5, from whom, according to insiders, went to another frontman - Jared Leto. That romance ended too much, and in 2014, Anna began to meet with the vice president of Yahoo, Adam Kahan, having given birth to his daughter a year later. Vyalitsyna has always managed to combine a stormy romantic relationship with a successful career in collaboration with such brands as Alexander McQueen, Anna Sui, Calvin Klein, Chloe and Max Mara.

She was offered to change the name "Elena" in Paris to a more euphonic one - and offers for filming in Tokyo and New York fell on her like a cornucopia. Vlada is in the top 30 most in-demand models of the 2000s, she has worked with such famous photographers as Mario Testino, Terry Richardson and Stephen Klein, as well as on the set of L’Officiel, Marie Claire and Vogue. Vlada collaborates with Moschino, DKNY, Sonia Rykiel and Giorgio Armani and lives in New York, but one day she plans to return to her native Omsk.

Anna Selezneva studied psychology at Moscow State University and did not dream of a modeling career, but after a few years she could easily appear on two glossy covers in one month. In 2007, a model scout saw her in a fast food restaurant, and after a couple of months Anna defiled at the shows of Paris Fashion Week. At first, she was periodically compared to Kate Moss, but then Selezneva was perceived as an independent successful model. The face of Ralph Lauren Midnight Romance considers Sophia Loren to be her style icon.

Sasha studied ballet since childhood and took part in dance competitions, where she was offered to try her hand at modeling. In the spring of 2007, she took part in the Alena Akhmadullina fashion show, and in 2012 she was noticed in one of the catalogs by Karl Lagerfeld and invited to take part in one of the Chanel shows. In 2014, Luss starred for the Pirelli calendar, and also became the face of advertising campaigns for Carolina Herrera and Dior Beauty. Now Sasha openly declares that she is ready to part with a modeling career for the sake of working on the set: she made her debut in Luc Besson's film Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, and more recently appeared in his own film Anna, where she played a Russian super-spy.

Irina Shayk managed to literally unite the entire beautiful half of the country: the Instagram account of Lady Gaga, who was accused of breaking up with Bradley Cooper, girls and women were bombarded with unflattering comments. Irina's real surname is Shaikhislamova, but she decided to shorten it to make it easier to pronounce for foreigners. As a child, Irina dreamed of being a journalist, but winning the Miss Chelyabinsk contest paved the way for her in modeling. Shayk became the first Russian model to appear on the cover of a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, but she always emphasized that she would never work with Playboy, no matter how tempting the fee was. She appeared on the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2016, making a splash - the model was already pregnant with her daughter Leia from Hollywood actor Bradley Cooper. Her best friend- designer Ricardo Tisci.
