( A lot of models are not on the list. You can only have a maximum of 20 " poll choices", and unfortunately SI in the 00's has seen A LOT of different models. So, the girls included here are really only girls who have been in 3 or more issues, or who had the cover. Sorry if your favorite is not here. There really wasn't enough space to list half the girls! Hopefully you can still enjoy the poll anyway! )

Overall: Heidi

Personality: Heidi

this one is very hard

I have fav "models" on the list but to be fair some are not "SI greats" to me aka Anabb thus not remembering them for their SI work...

but voted for:

Face: Daniela it is so perfect IMO

Body: Veronika

overall: Heidi. her cover was amazing and she made some fun,iconic photos

also : Elsa,Molly,Josie,Petra,Yamila,Ana

^ Some are not " greats" but everyone on the list has been featured in the mag at least 3 times ( I think) and most of them 4 or 5 times. The 00's simply doesn't have a lot of greats YET.

I voted for VV!

What does overall mean ? I thought it meant face and body combination at first, until some voted same for face and body and another for all . Does it mean best at modeling, greatest swimsuit model or best representation of SI or something like that ?

Face: Yamila

Body: Marisa

Overall: Daniela

But, really, there are a lot of great candidates here, and the decade isn't over yet. Honorable mentions go to: Elsa, Josie, Veronika, Petra, Heidi, and Carolyn.

In this context, overall just means who produced your favorite work. For example, you might think Klum has the best face and Varekova the best body, but as a complete package ( face, body, modeling work for SI, etc.) Daniela P is your favorite.
