A supermodel is a highly paid _fashion model_

Model: The Ugly Business of Beautiful Women by _Michael Gross_
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Gross) , the first known use of the term was in the
1940s in a how-to book for models by an agent named Clyde Matthew Dessner. In
an article in Glamour Magazine in 1968, the author described _Twiggy_
