Lara Stone

Occupation: model

Born in 1983, Stone was a bit of a late bloomer. First discovered at the age of 13 by the Elite Modeling Agency, she did not make the big-time until 2006, when at age 23 she signed with IMG. Since then, she has won the British Fashion Awards' Model of the Year 2010 and taken the high fashion community by storm. She was featured on the August 2009 cover of W, which declared her the most-wanted face of the moment. Vogue Paris named her as one of the top 30 models of the 2000s.
