Kendall's first place income comes from lucrative partnerships with brands like Adidas, Estée Lauder, and Calvin Klein. Jenner is far and away the leader-Kloss clocks in at second place with $13 million and has contracts with Swarovski, Away luggage, and Adidas.

Bündchen, who held the top spot in 2016, came in at fifth place tied with Cara Delevigne at $10 million. Meanwhile, supermodel sisters Gigi and Bella Hadid ranked seventh and eighth respectively.

Though Kendall is the highest paid model, she isn't the highest paid Kardashian/Jenner. Her sister Kylie Jenner runs away with that title, bringing in an estimated $166.5 million in a year.
