6. Carla Bruni

 She might not be oficially ekeing a living per se out of being the poster girl for Christian Dior haute couture but the saucy Italian heiress now Mrs Sarkosy, France's First Lady, must take some credit for displaying John Galliano's talent to the max. The leggy beauty said to be both the late, Gianni Versace and Saint Laurent's fave supermodel, is back on the covers of, well, most newspapers and celebrity glossies internationally. Looking polished and demure when she met The Queen on a recent trip to Britain, Carla, dressed solely in regal purple and subtle grey cashmere (with matching pillbox à la Jackie O) showed what happens when a supermodel grows up and marries Mr Right (no, not your model agent Linda or even a premier football star). Way to go.
