Iman

First cosmetics line for WOC. Married Bowie. Fought industry racism.

Iman revolutionized beauty standards by launching one of the first cosmetics lines for women of color in 1994, now sold in over 10,000 stores. Her 25-year career saw her become the highest-paid Black model of the 1990s, with a net worth estimated at $30 million. Married to David Bowie for 24 years, she proved that a model's impact can transcend runways and reshape entire industries.
