Karlie Kloss's Networth Explored

Coming to the 32-year-old supermodel’s earnings, let us begin with her modeling career. Karlie Kloss began modeling at the young age of 13 and is currently represented by IMG Models. The supermodel is also known for her panther-like walk. Throughout her career, she has walked for multiple luxury designers and has appeared in advertisements for numerous brands.

A Cosmopolitan article citing The Daily Mail suggests that in 2015, Karlie Kloss was paid about $299 for every step she took on the runway. In 2016, Kloss, along with Kendall Jenner, reportedly earned about $10 million as a model. In 2018, Kloss was the second-highest-paid model in the world, with approximately $14 million in pre-tax/pre-fee earnings, trailing only Kendall Jenner, who earned about $22.5 million.

According to Cosmopolitan, as a Victoria's Secret Angel, she supposedly made about $5 million a year. However, she left the brand in 2015, believing that its image was not "truly reflective" of who she is. In 2019, she hosted Project Runway, and though her salary was not made public, Cosmopolitan reported that it likely wasn’t too far from the contestants’ prize of $250,000.

Though she does not actively walk in runway shows anymore, she remains involved in entrepreneurial activities and brand endorsements. Multiple outlets report that she has a large number of brand endorsements, ranging from Nike to Swarovski and more.

Beyond modeling, Kloss has built a career through business ventures, partnerships, and investments. According to Celebrity Net Worth, in 2020, she joined a group of investors to acquire ownership of W Magazine and has since been actively involved in its direction and operations.

In 2023, she reportedly acquired i-D, a British fashion magazine, and became its Chief Executive Officer. In 2024, according to Wikipedia, she and her husband revived Life Magazine via Bedford Media.
