Crossover<br />
Star:<br />
tricia Helfer<br />
With her curves and posterperfect<br />
good looks, Helfer hopscotched<br />
easily from her family<br />
farm in Donalda, Alta., to the runways<br />
of Europe after earning the<br />
title of Ford Supermodel of the<br />
World in 1992. Her mass appeal<br />
(reminiscent of fresh-faced Farrah<br />
Fawcett, whom she portrayed in<br />
a TV movie) led to campaigns<br />
<strong>for</strong> Chanel, Giorgio Armani and<br />
Lacoste. Most recently, Helfer has<br />
reinvented herself in Hollywood,<br />
garnering a wide new fan base as<br />
the sexy cyborg Six in Battlestar<br />
Galactica.<br />
The Muse:<br />
Jessica<br />
stam<br />
in one short year, stam made the<br />
leap from coffee-shop sighting (the<br />
Kincardine, ont., native was spotted<br />
by a scout at a tim hortons in 2001)<br />
to being declared steven meisel’s<br />
muse. with her haunting blue-grey<br />
cat’s-eyes and cupid’s-bow lips, her<br />
otherworldly looks were a departure<br />
from the supes and waifs who came<br />
be<strong>for</strong>e her. fascinating photographers<br />
and designers alike (marc<br />
Jacobs christened the stam bag<br />
after her), she paved the way <strong>for</strong><br />
the doll-like beauties currently gracing<br />
runways and fashion pages.<br />

as Canada’s sexy girl next<br />
door, Cuthbert is also one<br />
of our country’s hottest<br />
acting exports. Here, we<br />
mixed her steamy redcarpet<br />
style with a twist<br />
of vintage Hollywood<br />
glamour.<br />
famous faces in<br />
flare: ten of our finest<br />
moments from the past 30 years<br />
The New Supe:<br />
Daria WerboWy<br />
A tomboyish beauty with feline features,<br />
Werbowy reigns as one of the world’s most<br />
recognizable, highest-paid—and hardestworking—models.<br />
The Polish-born <strong>for</strong>mer art<br />
student from Mississauga, Ont., took runways<br />
by storm, walking no less than 30 shows <strong>for</strong><br />
Fall ’03, her debut season. Since then, she’s<br />
graced ads <strong>for</strong> some of the glossiest names<br />
in the biz (Prada, Gucci, Chanel, YSL), setting<br />
herself apart as leader of the new guard: a<br />
business-savvy supe with an anti-diva attitude.<br />
The<br />
Sex Symbol:<br />
yasmeen GHauri<br />
With her shapely body and sultry catwalk<br />
swivel, Ghauri broke the mould when she shot<br />
to fame in the early ’90s. Her provocative looks<br />
made her a regular on the Versace runway, as<br />
well as the skin-baring pages of the Victoria’s<br />
Secret catalogue and Sports Illustrated. The<br />
Montrealer was among the pioneering supermodels<br />
who put Canada on the fashion map.<br />

THE DISCO DARLINGS: Fan Death Frequently spotted sitting front row during<br />
Fashion Week Mexico, the Vancouver-based dance duo known as Fan Death is charming the chants<br />

“Veronica’s Veil” on Chanel’s Spring ’09 catwalk. “I’m so obsessed with traditional Mexican clothing and<br />
culture,” says lead singer Dandi. “Our favourite track off our new EP [due this fall] is called ‘La Paca.’ It’s<br />
about a woman psychic from Mexico whom the police hire to solve crimes. She dresses outrageously!”<br />
