Texan supermodel Jerry Hall is simply put, one of the greatest supermodels of all time.

She has walked the biggest and best runways and been spotted on countless magazine covers over her decade-spanning career. Born on July 2, 1956 Jerry Faye Hall began modelling in the 1970s and quickly became one of the most in-demand models in the world, thanks to her famously long blonde mermaid hair and impressive 6–foot-tall stature. 

How did Jerry Hall begin modelling?

The story goes that Jerry was sunbathing with her twin sister Terry in Saint Tropez when she was discovered by fashion agent Claude Haddad in the early 1970s. By 1977, Hall's fame had skyrocketed and she had graced the covers of over 40 world famous glossys including Italian Vogue and Cosmopolitan. She made the transition into acting with an appearance in 1989's Batman alongside Michael Keaton. Other notable roles include Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie and a stint treading the boards in a stage adaptation of The Graduate
