In 2007, Forbes named her fifteenth in the list of the World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels, earning at an estimated total of $1.5 million in the past 12 months.

Jessica Stam won the Los Angeles Model Look contest in 2002. Photographer Steven Meisel jump-started her career and soon after cast her in every advertisement campaign of his. "I guess I'm his muse", Jessica Stam has said. Jessica Stam has appeared on the cover of UK, Turkish & German Vogue and in advertisements for Marc Jacobs, Anna Sui, Giorgio Armani, Gucci, DKNY, and others.

Fashion designer Marc Jacobs created The Marc Jacobs Stam, a bag inspired and named after her. For the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show in 2006, New York Model opened the fourth runway theme "Pink". The appearance also included a featurette showing a Victoria's Secret commercial shoot and what a model sees when walking the runway. In the January 2006, Jessica Stam appeared in the Rochas ad campaign, shot and directed by Bruno Aveillan.
For Spring 2006 Ready-to-Wear, Stam walked a total of 64 shows combined during the New York, Milan, and Paris Fashion Weeks.

Stam fell at the Chloé Fall 2006 show in Paris, while wearing "ridiculously high patent-leather pumps" that got caught on each other as her feet crossed on the runway. Her fall received millions of views on YouTube and it even took first spot on the "Top Five Runway Falls" list by New York Magazine. She later recalled, "I fell and got back up," she says. "I kept walking. It happens, and it's no big deal."
She was presented on the May 2007 cover of American Vogue as one of the "World’s Next Top Models." In July 2007, earning at an estimated total of $1.5 million in the previous 12 months, Forbes named her fifteenth in the list of the World's 15 Top-Earning Supermodels.
