FAN BINGBING COVER (2020 COLLECTOR'S EDITION) - MODE announced its eagerly awaited "MODE's World's 100 Most Beautiful Women 2016" list on Thursday December 29th 2016 at a private invite-only event to much excitement. Topping the list at number one is Olivia Culpo. Following at number two is Fan Bingbing, and at number three is Beatriz Fortunato. There were a lot of oohs and aahs, some surprises, and some big smiles. Some of our editors were clearly relieved because they no longer had to continuously dodge questions about who was in and who was out of the closely guarded list this year. MODE's President, Alexander Michaels, announced the top ten from the 100 list first and stated that, "Compiling this year's 'MODE's World's 100 Most Beautiful Women' list was particularly challenging for MODE because of the incredible level of talent, achievement, and energy of those within the list, and also those just out of it." He continued, "One of the most enjoyable aspects for us of compiling the list every year is reading the contributions and suggestions from our readers on who their favorites are. You get to learn so much about so many wonderful people on the list and understand that this is not merely about physical beauty, but rather more about hard work, dedication to one's craft and goals, and the powerful impact these amazing women have on society."
