She returned to New York City in 1978 and worked steadily for the next several years, earning $2,000 per day, nearly four times the standard rate. Dickinson eventually signed with Ford Models in order to secure a major advertising campaign for a new JVC camera. Dickinson, who had not forgotten Ford’s rejection, was out for vengeance. She was soon one of twenty Ford models who defected to John Casablancas’ fledgling Elite Model Management.
Dickinson was considered a supermodel by the 1980s because she “possessed the kind of name and face recognition” that the majority of women in the modeling industry strive for. She has appeared in and on the covers of magazines such as Harper’s Bazaar, Cosmopolitan, Photo, Vogue, Marie Claire, and Playboy, and has collaborated with some of fashion’s most well-known names such as Bill Blass, Gianni Versace, Valentino Garavani, Azzedine Alaa, Pino Lancetti, Halston, Oscar de la Renta, and Calvin Klein.

She has appeared on the cover of Elle seven times in a row and has modeled for Revlon, Alberto VO5, Balmain, Obao, Christian Dior, Clairol, Hush Puppies, Orbit gum, Max Factor, Virginia Slims, and Cutex.
