We can throw out the names of the top female supermodels in our sleep, but who are the equivalents of Gisele Bündchen and Naomi Campbell in the men's modeling world? That would be the likes of Sean O'Pry and David Gandy, who once humbly dismissed his supermodel title, saying, "I would sort of just rather be called at the top of the game."
Our list of top male models doesn't stop with those two, though. There are plenty of men out there, of all ages, that have achieved the highly coveted status as a top model. From their faces to chiseled abs on the runway, we just can't seem to look away. Get acquainted with the most famous male models to date, ahead.
Beckford shot to fame after being discovered by an editor of hip-hop magazine The Source back in 1991. He went on to land a modeling gig with Ralph Lauren's Polo Sport fragrance campaign, thereby kicking off his runway career (opens in new tab) and he achieved the same level of fame as the '90s female supermodels. He has since diversified his portfolio to include acting and hosting, and maintains an active Instagram presence.
He was scouted at the age of 10 and signed to a modeling agency by 12 years old. The Cut, in 2015, notably dubbed him (opens in new tab) "the One Direction of male models." Lucky Blue Smith, who is now 21, has walked in runways for Chanel, Fendi, Jeremy Scott, and Tom Ford to name a few. He has also appeared in ad campaigns for Calvin Klein, Moncler, L'Oreal, and more.

The model is best known for being Karl Lagerfeld's muse and maintaining a super-close relationship with the designer until his death. The New York Times (opens in new tab) once wrote, "As the most senior and prominent member of a group of male models often referred to as Karl's Boys, Brad not only works for Chanel and Fendi...but also accompanies [Lagerfeld] on yearly vacations to St. Tropez and work trips and to parties worldwide." The two have such a special bond that Lagerfeld was named godfather to Kroenig's son Hudson (opens in new tab), the little boy who often appeared next to Lagerfeld during his runway bows.
The British model was scouted from a televised model-search competition and went on to work as the lead male model for brands like Dolce & Gabbana.

Fun fact: Hu Bing was a former member of the Chinese National Rowing Team.
