Supermodels have had a longtime rep for being outrageously tall and stick-thin. Although the skinny silhouettes still dominate the fashion industry, we’ve come a long way since then with the rise of curvier supermodels like Christine Brinkley, Heidi Klum, and Karolina Kurkova (who by the way, remained in high demand despite the fact the Brazilian press claimed she had “too much back fat”).
