Edward Razek: Why Victoria’s Models Succeed Off The Runway
Edward Razek: Why Victoria’s Models Succeed Off The Runway
According to a study by Forbes.com if there are institutions that produce winners Victoria’s Secret is that to the modeling industry.
Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum and Tyra Banks are among the notable alumni of the Victoria’s Secret Brand who have achieved enormous success in the fashion industry.
Many fashion brands use famous actresses to market their product. Victoria’s Secret has shied away from that trend by using impossibly tall vixens that are comfortable sharing their bodies in lingerie. To do this as a career one must have a ton of confidence and fantastic physique. Edward Razek understands this probably more than anyone in the modeling industry.
“I try to encourage all of the women to get involved with the brand, to develop their communication skills and to watch the best examples, like Heidi, to see what they’ve done with their careers,” says Razek. “I am constantly looking for the next Tyra, Gisele or Heidi.”
Razek also understands the importance that his models are professionals. “The notion of girls partying all night and showing up late and throwing cellphones at chauffeurs, you won’t see it, period,” says Razek. While it is true that Naomi has spread her wings on the Victoria’s Secret Runways, it is apparent she didn’t learn her skills from VS. “There are too many good girls (out there) and we won’t deal with divas.”
Victoria’s Secret has also avoided the fashion trap of using anorexic looking models in its ad campaigns. It is true that VS models are leaner and taller than your average girl and they choose women with extraordinarily good looks but they use a fuller, more toned and athletic model than many brands do.
Whatever their secret is, the world loves VS models. Thank you Mr. Razek.

Heidi Klum on “Models have an expiration date.”
In the most recent edition of Instyle Magazine Heidi Klum admitted, “like food, models spoil with age,” and “they have a sell by date.” Not earthshattering news from the 36 year old mother of 4 who has remained queen of the modeling industry for years now, but interesting to know that she is on top and has done so with style and grace. Heidi recently changed her last name to Samuel to honor her husband Seal.
Heidi blasted off from supermodel status to being a permanent icon in the modeling stratosphere with her hit reality show Project Runway. There she is a host, guest judge and executive producer. Project Runway airs on Thursdays and has switched networks from Bravo to Lifetime.
Forbes Magazine estimates Heidi’s income at 16 million dollars annually. Doesn’t look like Heidi will expire anytime soon.

Heidi Klum Book: Heidi Klum’s Body of Knowledge: 8 Rules of Model Behavior (to Help You Take Off on the Runway of Life)
Heidi Klum Book: Heidi Klum’s Body of Knowledge: 8 Rules of Model Behavior (to Help You Take Off on the Runway of Life)
Product Description:
Heidi Klum is one of the most famous supermodels in the world, but it took a lot more than above-average looks to get there. Growing up in a small town in Germany certainly didn’t prepare her for superstardom. After winning a national modeling contest she had entered on a lark, Heidi spent the next two years trying to catch a break in a business dominated by skinny waifs and big egos. Ignoring the skeptics and naysayers, at nineteen, she hopped a plane to the United States, where she tirelessly (and always optimistically) posed, strutted, networked, and laughed her way to the top.
Heidi learned a lot on the road to becoming a cultural icon—and fortunately she took notes along the way. In this funny, dishy, and highly practical book, she shares the secrets behind her success and shows how anyone can achieve their goals in work, love, and life:
• Pursue success long after any sane person would have given up
• Persuade others you have the chops to do whatever it is you’re going for
• Make people see you as you want to be seen
• Find your own unique style
• Create a strong, healthy body
• Tap into your seductive side
• Broaden your horizons by traveling the world
• Have a blast while it lasts
This informative romp is full of gorgeous photos from the top professional photographers in the fashion industry, personal pictures from Heidi’s own scrapbooks, behind-the-scenes stories about the modeling world, and helpful hints for achieving success. With her refreshing candor and effervescent style, Heidi offers dead-on advice that will resonate with anyone who has everwanted more out of life.

Gisele Bundchen Is The World’s Highest Paid Model (Video)
Gisele Bundchen Is The World’s Highest Paid Model (Video)
The fashion industry has a reputation for pushing boundaries but recently it has been more known to play it safe.
Partially because of the recession and parially because of media advertising slumps clients have become notorious penny pinchers and very reluctant to work with new models.
Even Victoria’s Secret who is known for discovering beauties and launching their careers has not hired a new Angel since two years ago when it hired Holland’s Doutzen Kroes to join the lineup.
“Companies want to know that if they’re putting money behind a talent that she is recession-proof,” says Ivan Bart, senior vice president and managing director of ING Models, which represents model superstars such as Gisele Bündchen and Heidi Klum.
“We find that the experienced models continue to earn well.”
When companies do buy ads, they reserve the space for their proven talent. “With the exception of the top 20 girls, there’s less work and less money,” says Edward Razek, chief marketing officer for Limited Brands — Victoria’s Secret’s parent company.
Despite tough times superstars Gisele Bundchen and Heidi Klum went on to lead the list of top earners for 2010. The top earner is Gisele Bundchen making nearly 25 million dollars modeling for True Religion Jeans, D & G, Ipanema (her own sandals line) among other clients.
Heidi Klum is the second highest earning model. She is in her seventh season of Project Runway and her earnings boast nearly 16 million annually.
Kate Moss comes in third place with a reported nine million for the 36 year old superstar.
