A deep look into the exciting world of modeling to understand how aspiring models can make their way.

The importance of the parent agency

How do you become a model for Vogue & Co. In short, you need a good modeling agency with an international network. You gain initial experience in your home country and later abroad. This is the only way to make it onto the covers of the big fashion magazines!

You need a good model agency, your “mother agency”!

In the industry, we call them the “mother agency”. This is the first agency that believes in you as soon as they see your application and photos. Your mother agency is your first support and your first confidant in the fashion world.

How does cooperation between agencies work?

Mother agencies, such as CM Models, look for promising talent, sign contracts and help models get their first photo shoots, castings and jobs. Once a model has proven herself and built up confidence, the doors to international opportunities open.

The way abroad

If you want to work as a model abroad, it is important to gain experience and build your reputation. At first, you will probably work in European fashion capitals such as Paris or Milan. With time and a growing portfolio, you may then be able to make the move to the United States.

The US market

New York City is undoubtedly the epicenter of fashion, but Los Angeles also has a lot to offer, especially in the commercial sector. If you manage to make a name for yourself here, there are plenty of opportunities open to you.

In the world of modeling agencies, a lot of communication takes place via email, as agencies and models are often spread across the globe. Nevertheless, it is important to meet in person from time to time to create a closer bond.

A modeling career requires time, commitment and hard work. Your mother agency is your first and most loyal ally. With patience and a growing list of jobs, you may one day be able to enter the exciting world of fashion in the United States.
