The Swedish sensation exploded onto the modeling scene with the compelling blend of rugged good looks and winning personality. His versatility and professionalism combined with one of the best physiques in the business appealed to a whole range of clients, from Versace, Guess and Lagerfeld to Hugo Boss. One of the first of the male supermodels of the 90's, Alex remains to this day, a fixture in an industry that remains loyal to those who can always deliver the "shot".

Even after a decade Larry Scott remains one of the industry's most coveted faces. After his iconic turn for Armani (who can forget his ten years as the face of Acqua Di Gio) as well as work with nearly every designer Scott continues to book choice jobs. With a recent resurgence between the pages of Interview and Vogue Hommes International Larry is poised to continue his winning streak.

8Nacho Figueras
Sometimes a model is so perfectly matched to the appeal of the brand they represent that they become more than just a campaign representative, they become the physical embodiment of the brand itself. Nacho Figueras is the total Polo package - with his smoldering good looks, athleticism (he actually plays the sport professionally) and debonair vibe he captures all the qualities of the Ralph Lauren man. Perhaps that’s why the designer made Figueras the face of all three Polo fragrances - the first time any model has ever simultaneously represented all the scents at once. |

New York: Ford Models
Copenhagen: 2pm Model Management
Barcelona: Sight Management Studio
Milan: d'management group
Paris: Success Models
London: Nevs
Hamburg: Kult Model Agency
Brad Kroenig has gotten from the modeling industry, everything that a clever and enterprising young man dreams about. Capital, real estate, an amazing client list (Hermes, Chanel, Fendi, Cavalli, Dom Perignon, Gap, Adidas, Tommy Hilfiger!) and a place in fashion history including cameos in Lagerfeld Confidential and his very own multi-volume tome of portraits. You name it, he got it. And THAT is what being an icon is about. |

6Gabriel Aubry
New York: Wilhelmina New York
Milan: I LOVE Models Management
Barcelona: Sight Management Studio
Gabriel Aubrey is one of those rare model icons that looms as a bonafide celebrity even as his legacy of fashion bookings marks him as one of the last of that era of male models worthy of the prefix "super". As a long running fixture of the Calvin Klein brand, Mr. Aubrey still clocks in for duty to this very day. But model watchers will always remember that incredible run that spanned clients such as Hugo Boss, DKNY, Versace and Tommy Hilfiger. |
