19. Imaan Hammam
At the tender age of 19, Imaan Hammam is a force of power and high fashion. She was born in Amsterdam, so we are going to include her on this list, even though her bloodlines run through Morocco and Egypt. Either way, she is very beautiful and there is something delicate yet powerful in this young woman. At 5-foot, 10-inches, she is tall and mighty, but also thin and waifish. She has modeled for Givenchy, Vogue, Prada, Jean Paul Gaultier, Balenciaga, Versave, Fendi, and Dior, among other iconic fashion labels. When Imaan appeared on the United States version of Vogue magazine, it was a breakthrough for women of color.
