Bikinis that burn – Kendall makes it hot

Kendall Jenner poses in fiery red with an elegance that sends fashion editors around the world into ecstasy. The cuts? Skimpy, but classy. The colors? From vibrant crimson to elegant black. Kendall shows: You don’t need XXL accessories – a perfectly fitting bikini is enough. And no one wears it cooler than her.

The look: minimal cut, maximum impact

High legs, golden detailing, no frills – the new collection goes back to pure sensuality. Kendall shows triangle tops with a statement factor, ultra-high bikini briefs and one-pieces that are made for supermodels. She herself describes the style as “raw, confident & feminine” – and that’s exactly what the images deliver. No filters. No drama. Just style.

Star-level photography – Kendall has rarely been this intimate

The campaign feels almost voyeuristic – so close, so unposed. The photos were taken in a secret villa with an endless pool and dramatic sunlight. Kendall leans, lies, walks through the water – every image feels like a moment you just happen to catch. And that’s exactly what makes the campaign so irresistible: it plays with naturalness without being boring. An aesthetic direct hit.

It girl meets It brand: Why Calzedonia does everything right

Calzedonia, once known for tights, is a global swimwear player in 2025. The brand has reinvented itself – young, sexy, elegant. And with Kendall at the helm, it’s clear that this brand doesn’t just want to sell, it wants to dominate. The Italian label is sending out a clear signal: We have arrived, on the radar of the fashion elite.

Kendall’s message to all girls: “Be your summer icon”

Whatever Kendall touches becomes hype. And this time, too, she’s not just bringing her body with her, but her attitude. She wants every woman in the collection to feel strong – “as if you were dancing barefoot on a rooftop and all eyes are on you”. Her looks convey self-confidence – not as a trend, but as an attitude.

Why the fashion world is going crazy!

Look at the photos, wow!

Since the release, the campaign has been buzzing across all channels: TikTok, Instagram, fashion newsletters. Kendall in a red bikini? Viral. Kendall in a white one-piece? Save, share, post. Fashion houses react, fans go crazy, Calzedonia sets sales records. In short: this campaign hits the zeitgeist – with full force.

Kendall delivers the 2025 summer trend

You don’t need to google new trends – Kendall has long since shown the way. Calzedonia’s swimwear collection not only sets visual accents, but is also a lifestyle statement. A touch of dolce vita, wrapped in minimalist elegance. And Kendall? She delivers the definition of “Hot Girl Summer” right along with it.

Model, presenter & media professional

Since her breakthrough in 2011, Rebecca Mir has been an integral part of the German media landscape. She has proven it: You don’t have to win to shine. As runner-up on GNTM, she was even more successful than the winner at the time, Jana Beller – thanks to her charisma, discipline and genuine talent.

GNTM was just the beginning

Rebecca impressed with her professionalism and charisma. Shortly after GNTM , she walked for Lena Hoschek, Jorge González and Minx at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Appearances in New York soon followed, including for Christian Siriano. Cover pages such as Cosmopolitan, GQ and TV Spielfilm followed one after the other – her face became known throughout Germany.

There was a crackle on “Let’s Dance” in 2012. Rebecca as a celebrity contestant, Massimo Sinató as her dance partner. “We were already sizzling during Let’s Dance,” Massimo later revealed. Flirtation turned into love – despite obstacles at the time. In August 2012, they made their relationship public.

Wedding & family happiness: A couple with history

They married in Sicily in 2015 and their first son was born in 2021. Since then, Rebecca has shown herself to be a loving mother – approachable but never too private. Her family life remains protected but honest. The two are still considered one of the most likeable celebrity couples in Germany.

“Yes, Massimo and I are together,” Rebecca told BUNTE at the time. Their love grew despite the flashbulbs and press pressure. Today, they celebrate appearances, vacations and successes together – at eye level and with a lot of respect for each other.

Diligence, fitness & focus

Rebecca is considered ambitious and disciplined – even in everyday life. She works out regularly, dances standard with Massimo and loves exercise. “Squats are my secret tip,” she revealed in an interview with Cosmopolitan. So it’s no wonder that she’s still in top form years after GNTM.

The mission of Model Agency One

Stephan explains MAO’s mission: to provide young people, regardless of their age, with free recommendations for modeling agencies. The list includes the most exciting cities in the fashion industry and helps you find the perfect starting point for your modeling career.

Find your model agency, on:

• Model Agency One

The diversity of modeling agencies

One of the most important things Stephan emphasizes is the diversity of modeling agencies. There are agencies for different looks and types, be it for TV commercials or high fashion. Model Agency One will help you find the right agency for your individual needs.

3 valuable tips for modeling

Stephan shares three crucial tips for aspiring models:

1. Check the agency’s portfolio and work: Take a look at the agency’s models, jobs and clients. This will give you an insight into their quality and experience.
2. Never pay money for a contract: Reputable agencies earn money by placing jobs, not prospective models.
3. Apply to several agencies: Apply to several agencies in your city. This increases your chances of being selected by an agency that will support you.

The importance of Polaroids

You don’t need professional photos for your application. Agencies often work with Polaroids, natural photos taken in daylight. Your smartphone is enough to take portrait and full-body photos.

Want to become a model? Let’s go!

Stephan concludes the video with words of encouragement and encourages aspiring models to pursue their dreams. He also refers to his book “The Model Book” and his podcast “The Model Podcast”, which offer further valuable information for aspiring models – including you!

Diversity in the modeling business

One of Stephan’s first important messages is that there is room for different looks and types in the modeling business. Whether you think you don’t fit the classic fashion ideal, there are agencies looking for different profiles. From TV commercials to high fashion – there is something for everyone.

From Los Angeles: Stephan on becoming a model

You can find more videos on YouTube x CM Models.

Application to several agencies

Stephan recommends not just applying to one agency. The application process is often straightforward and only requires a few photos and basic information. You could submit your application to CM Models first and then, after some time, to other agencies to maximize your chances.

Important: Never pay money

A particularly important point is never to pay money to a modeling agency. Reputable agencies earn their money by arranging jobs, not by charging prospective models.

The casting and application phase

If an agency finds your profile interesting, you will be invited to a casting or video casting. It is important to be authentic and show your natural beauty. No make-up or styling is required. Simple videos and photos are sufficient.

Patience and the way to the top

Stephan emphasizes that the path to success as a model requires patience. It’s unlikely that you’ll end up on the cover of Vogue straight away. It takes time to gain experience and establish yourself as a model. Quality in photo shoots is more important than quantity.

The international route

Once you have gained your first experience in your home city, you can take the next step and work abroad. Stephan explains how this works and provides insights into the requirements for international assignments.

Finally, Stephan encourages aspiring models to be brave and apply. A modeling career can be difficult, but with patience and hard work, it is achievable. His valuable insights provide great guidance for anyone pursuing the dream of becoming a model.

The beginning of Heidi’s career

The internationally sought-after German model Heidi Klum originally comes from Bergisch Gladbach. Heidi’s father was initially a production manager in a perfume factory until he founded the model agency “One eins fab” in honor of his daughter’s success. Klum’s mother, on the other hand, was a hairdresser. Heidi graduated from a comprehensive school in her home town in 1992.

• Born: June 1, 1973
• Grew up in: Bergisch Gladbach, Germany
• Height: 1.77 meters
• Shoe size: 41

Model ’92’ was the name of Thomas Gottschalk’s show at the time, in which 25,000 girls had to compete to become a model. Heidi, 18 years old at the time and an aspiring high school graduate, proved her talent and won the competition. Back then, the modeling profession was not as well known as it is today; even Heidi still didn’t know that “being a model” was a real profession at the time.

“When I left school, I didn’t even know that modeling was a job.”

Model business or training?

But modeling was not her only hobby; Heidi was also very interested in fashion at a young age. Now she was faced with a choice: she could either start training as a fashion designer in Düsseldorf or try to build a career as a model. Thanks to her success on Thomas Gottschalk’s TV show, the blonde thought her chances as an aspiring model were excellent. How do you think Heidi decided?

The first jobs in New York: Victorias Secret, Vogue & Co.

Model mom, top model, advertising face, style icon, mother and so much more. We don’t even know where to start with such a huge career, but of course we’ve picked out everything you need to know about the beauty. The top model is the first and so far most successful top model from Germany! Born in Bergisch Gladbach, the model was discovered by Thomas Gottschalk in the casting show Model’92 in 1992. S

hen she was just 19 years old, she won a 300,000 US dollar contract as a model for three years. After graduating from high school, she moved to the United States in 1993.

As you’ve probably already guessed, Heidi decided to give modeling a chance. To actively support her budding career, Klum moved to the United States to New York after graduating from high school, at just 19 years old. Five years later it happened; Heidi landed a job as a Victoria Secret Angel after appearing on the cover of the American magazine Sports Illustrated. As a campaign face for various companies such as Birkenstock, Douglas and even McDonalds, Heidi made a name for herself. Soon everyone knew her and she was a role model for all the young girls out there who also wanted to realize their dream as a model.

Interested in how Heidi walked as a model for the underwear company Victorias Secret? In this video you can see the pretty blonde on the catwalk from 1998 to 2009.

Germany’s next Topmodel, DSDS & America’s Got Talent

Germany’s Next Topmodel, DSDS, America’s Got Talent, Project Runway, Making the Cut etc., Heidi Klum is not only seen on catwalks, but also on TV. Since 2006, she has appeared on television every year to choose Germany’s new top model. As you can see, Heidi is not only in demand as an international model, she also devotes a large part of her life to numerous TV shows, her own collections and, of course, her family.

But that’s not all, Heidi has received many awards over the years, such as the Bambi or the Emmy, which put her unique career in the spotlight. Heidi is therefore not only an idol for Germans, but also inspires people all over the world. Because she shows that the dream of being a model is not impossible!

Your casting show “Germany’s next Topmodel”

At 1.76m, Heidi Klum is not one of the tallest models today. For her own casting show “Germany’s next Topmodel”, which is broadcast on ProSieben, the requirements are to be at least 1.76m tall and 16 years old. The 48-year-old has been choosing the most beautiful girl in Germany every year for 13 years. The first girl to win the casting show was Lena Gercke. A season always consists of 15-16 episodes in which the girls have to complete a wide variety of tasks.

From introductions to major clients for jobs to exciting photo shoots, everything is included. The girls have a very exciting time there. Heidi put together a jury of three people every year. Each time it consisted of her and two famous men chosen for the task, such as Thomas Hayo and Michael Michalsky. The upcoming fourteenth season will be a little different. You can find out more about the jury in the fourteenth season and the latest news here:

• GNTM: All seasons

Your private life: Wedding & children

Such a beautiful, successful woman, but no man at her side? Quite the opposite: at the age of 20, Heidi Klum married hairdresser Ric Pipino. After five years, however, the marriage broke down and the two divorced. During a brief relationship with Flavio Briatore, Heidi became pregnant for the first time. She had her first daughter, followed by the divorce and the typical, private little dramas about moving out, moving house and selling the house after the divorce. At the age of 32, Heidi Klum gave married life another chance and married Seal, with whom she had three children, who adopted her first daughter and from whom she took the surname Samuel.

Heidi’s love life

After 7 years of marriage, the two separated. Heidi currently has the German guitarist of the band Tokio Hotel Tom Kaulitz at her side. The pictures on Heidi’s Instagram make it clear: Heidi is currently overjoyed with her love life! For those who already know Heidi Klum, it is particularly interesting to see how she behaved as a 19-year-old on the GNTM casting show compared to how she appears today. It’s very clear to see: She has developed enormously. Back then she was rather shy and very polite, but today she is a real presence with huge self-confidence!

Heidi Klum: Tom Kaulitz, family & children

After four failed relationships, Heidi has finally found the man of her dreams: Tom Kaulitz from Tokio Hotel. They have been married since August 3 last year, but the age difference of 16 years doesn’t bother them much. On Instagram, the two are more in love than ever. Tom and Heidi met at a party thrown by Michael Michalsky, who was a former member of the “GNTM” jury. They both ignore the numerous criticisms of their relationship and prove to the world that true love really does exist.

What does Heidi’s career look like in the future?

A new TV show? Or maybe baby number 5? Heidi has often surprised us with her plans for the future. Whether it’s a new fashion collection in collaboration with major companies or a new book, she is full of surprises. She is one of the most successful supermodels in the world, because: she’s simply got it!

From 1990, Crawford made her final breakthrough with a photo series in British Vogue. With an annual income of 6.9 million dollars, Cindy Crawford was considered the best-paid model ever.

Interview! Men’s models, looks and idols

In the interview, we talk about men’s models, popular looks, but also Timothée Chalamet, who is currently a style influencer for many.

Male models like Jon Kortajarena, Anwar Hadid and Sean O’Pry work for big brands like Armani, Ralph Lauren and Calvin Klein. You deal with advertising campaigns and shoots every day, and also with the different tastes of customers. What type is extremely popular with men’s models at the moment?

The type of male model that is in demand varies. There is fashion and advertising.

Men’s models at Fashion Week: skinny + young

Stephan Czaja (CM): When we talk about fashion, or haute couture, new collections, fashion weeks in Paris, Milan, London, the fashion cities. Generally speaking, I would say young, almost “young” looking 17-21 years old, relatively thin or “skinny”, without a beard and almost always freshly shaved. The models are diverse, African, Asian, European, all looks. The “skills” don’t have to be that trained, a cool look is often enough. Typical Calvin Klein perfume advertising, as if the model “doesn’t care about anything. Fashion stands for new things and accordingly “new” faces are always being sought.

Men’s models in advertising: cool, athletic + smiling

Stephan Czaja (CM): In advertising, men tend to be more distinctive, depending on the target group. Let’s say from the skinny 17-year-old at the fashion show to the athletic man, successful, 3-day beard, a great smile. A career in advertising starts from the age of 19, up to 25, depending on the type. Ultimately, advertising always sells a certain attitude to life, or the “good life” or lifestyle. That’s why “ability” is all the more important. A cool look is no longer enough. Whether it’s a travel campaign, the latest smartphone, fashion, etc., emotions and practiced posing (posture) and facial expressions are needed

Long-term success as male models

Stephan Czaja (CM): The better the male model, the faster the production, the more successfuly the planned goals of the photo shoot are achieved. Looks really only come second. You can only get good jobs and big clients if you prove to your management that they can trust the model. This means being punctual for jobs, attending casting appointments on time, working together professionally on the first small jobs on set, etc.

These are the most successful models in the industry.

How long can you work as a male model?

Stephan Czaja (CM): If you like the modeling job, i.e. castings, photo shoots, travel, all doors are open to you, even as you get older. It’s often just important to start early, as a teenager, or at the latest as a young adult. This gives the model management time to build up and the model time to learn.

Future: Which men’s look is coming next?

Stephan Czaja (CM): Next, curvy men will increasingly appear in advertising. Hardly noticed or not noticed at all until now. Curvy women have been around for a few years now. Men with an Asian look are also a trend among marketing agencies, advertising agencies and all other clients.

Timothée Chalamet: Idol and love story

What makes a guy like Timothée Chalamet so influential for many people?

Stephan Czaja (CM): Thanks to the huge success of his films “Call Me By Your Name” and “Little Women”, Timothée Chalamet has become one of the most sought-after and successful actors in Hollywood. Whether Instagram or breakfast television. His fanbase is mainly in the TikTok / Instagram generation, under the age of 25. His public relationship with his ex-girlfriend Lily-Rose Deep in particular has made him the idol of many, as the couple were Hollywood’s dream couple during their relationship and they were also considered an absolute dream couple on social media. The two have a unique love story, as they fell in love while filming the Netflix movie “The King”. What a love story!

As a kind of “idol”, he also shapes the world of this young generation. Absolutely.

What does Timothée Chalamet wear on the red carpet? What will he post on Instagram tomorrow?

Timothée Chalamet has, simply put, the classic Armani look. Long, full hair, a beautiful smile, a great life, energy and friends. A real sunshine boy, with a striking face.

Role model man: What has changed?

How has the image of masculinity changed in recent years?

The fashion industry is moving with the general change in the typical “male image”. Men are becoming more modern, more diverse. Less “tough” and “pithy”, men also have a lot going for them, not just muscles. I think we should also mention strong characters like Riccardo Simonetti, who is also a style-defining figure, even if not primarily as a model.

What always works are the attributes that Timothée Chalamet also has. Distinctive faces, slightly taller than average, so rather 186-190cm. A charming smile, positive charisma.

The most successful male models

Jon Kortajarena – 1st place

Spanish model Jon Kortajarena is not only a successful model, but also an actor who has already appeared in many international productions and has also been starring in the Netflix hit series High Seas since 2019.

The little brother of supermodels Gigi and Bella Hadid and son of model Yolanda Hadid is not only a model, but also a successful musician and has already released several singles.

On the other hand, he is a successful actor who has just reached the peak of his career and has starred in the most successful films in the world.

Participation in GNTM: jobs, shoots and walks

Dascha took her first step into the world of modeling on Heidi Klum’s well-known casting show. As you could already see in the first episode of GNTM, Heidi was a big fan of Dascha’s personality and type right from the start. The fashion world is changing and becoming more and more realistic, which is why Dasha’s curves in particular fit perfectly into this change. With her charisma, open nature and type, Dascha was able to land numerous jobs during the show for various clients such as Kilian Kerner, andmetics & Invisibobble.

Her beginnings and success story: Why it is so popular!

FIV: Why did you apply for GNTM? Was it always your dream to take part in this format? What motivated you to take part?

Dascha: I’ve always wanted to take part in GNTM. Ever since I was little, I wanted to leave a footprint. And I managed to do that.

FIV: You’ve come quite far now. How do you think you stand out from other models and what makes you special as a model?

Dasha: I am different because I reflect reality. I show that it’s normal to have a bit of flab or stretch marks. No one is perfect.

FIV: How did your environment, your family and friends, react to your participation in GNTM? Were you supported right from the start or was there criticism?

Dasha: I was supported from all sides right from the start.

Modeling industry: Dasha’s life as a model & more

Dasha has always wanted to be a model and has always aspired to apply for GNTM one day. Especially as a beginner and newcomer to the industry, it’s not always easy and you have to adapt. We spoke to Dascha about her biggest role model and her dream job. She also told us how best to present yourself to a client and what to look out for, especially as a newcomer.

Beginnings, dream jobs & tips for newcomers: What is there to know?

FIV: Did you always want to be a model or did you have a different career aspiration? What was your dream job when you were a child?

Dasha: I wanted to be either a model or a policewoman.

FIV: Do you have a role model? Especially in the modeling business/ in the fashion world and why is it exactly this person? What inspires you most about this person?

Dasha: My biggest role model is my mom. She is so strong and funny and has the most beautiful character.

FIV: What does a model’s working day look like? Tell us about a typical day for you. When does it start and how do you start the day? What tasks do you have to do and when do you finish work?

Dascha: It’s difficult to say because I’m still “new” to the business.

FIV: What would be your dream job as a model? Is there a particular client you would like to work for or is there a particular show you would like to appear in?

Dasha: I want to work with those who also represent me.

FIV: In your opinion, what qualities are particularly important for a model? Do you have any tips for newcomers? What should they look out for?

Dasha: You shouldn’t complain. I wouldn’t put on airs and graces. We’re all just people, whether we’re celebrities or not. That’s why you should respect everyone.

Dasha in private: her best qualities & goals for the future

Throughout the show, we got to know Dasha as a very open and particularly cheerful and outgoing person. You can tell that she is good with people and can also sell herself well. These are very important qualities for a model, especially at castings. Even after the show, Dascha sees herself at the beginning of her career and has big goals in this business!

FIV: Tell our readers something about yourself. For example, what are your best and worst qualities? Do you have a certain habit that bothers or annoys you?

Dasha: Well, I’m a very kind person. I always listen to others and am always there for them. I’m down-to-earth and I’ll always stay that way.
