My Take
Jessica Stam belongs to a very specific moment in fashion, and I think that is what makes her interesting. The "doll face" cohort she defined helped reshape the look of the late 2000s runway, and her wide-eyed, slightly otherworldly presence was genuinely distinctive in an industry that prizes sameness. Forbes ranking her among the top-earning supermodels confirms she was commercially serious, not merely photogenic. Coming out of small-town Kincardine, Ontario, to that level is no small feat. To me, being remembered as a singular face rather than an interchangeable one is the rarest currency a model can possess.
Overview
Jessica Elizabeth Stam (born 23 April 1986) is a Canadian model. She is considered to be part of the crop of models described as "doll faces." In 2007, Forbes named her fifteenth in the list of the World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels, earning at an estimated total of $1.5 million in the past 12 months.
