What will be new at GNTM 2024?

After Vivien became the first plus-size model to win in 2023 (you can watch the video of the final below), the upcoming 19th season of the show promises to be even more diverse. The casting is open to all genders for the first time, and height or weight no longer play a role. Filming is already in full swing.

There is also particular excitement about contestant Tracy from the last season, who is getting a second chance. The start date has already been set: the show kicks off on February 15, 2024 at 8.15 pm on ProSieben and Joyn. The theme song, newly recorded by Heidi Klum and DJ Tiesto, promises to perfectly capture the mood of the show. Be there for the exciting 19th season of “Germany’s Next Topmodel”!

Heidi Klum’s exclusive insight into season 19!

Heidi Klum sent all GNTM fans into a frenzy when she released the first exclusive glimpse of the eagerly awaited 19th season of “Germany’s Next Topmodel” before Christmas! The model boss herself unveiled the exciting first trailer on her Instagram account, getting fans’ anticipation to the max.

The trailer itself is a visual masterpiece and perfectly captures the magic of GNTM 2024. In an impressive monochrome look, Heidi Klum poses in front of the camera with cool sunglasses and shows that she is still the undisputed queen of the catwalk.

The exciting thing, however, is that the trailer not only shows the female contestants, but also provides a glimpse of the male models for the upcoming season for the first time. However, the identity of the candidates still remains a secret, as their faces are cleverly concealed in the silhouettes. This revelation promises an exciting and diverse 19th season of GNTM!

All year long, we’ve been eagerly awaiting the start of the new season. The new GNTM season of Heidi Klum. There have already been 17 seasons of the popular casting show on ProSieben. If you watch GNTM regularly, you usually have your favorite during the season and are then disappointed when they have to leave early. But who of those who made it through the exhausting time and were voted the most beautiful girl in Germany actually became successful afterwards? The highlights from 17 seasons of GNTM.

All About GNTM!

After GNTM: What happened to the candidates?

GNTM: Successful after GNTM

Around 20,000 young girls apply for GNTM every year. From that moment on, the jury sorts them out.

1. Who would have the best chances in the fashion industry?
2. Who fulfills the tasks best?
3. Who is undergoing the strongest development?

The jury uses criteria like these to decide who stays on the casting show and who has to leave. But that doesn’t mean that the average 2.38 million viewers have to be of the same opinion. There are countless candidates who have become successful on the casting show even without reaching first place. Whether it was someone else who saw the talent in the GNTM contestant or whether she fought her way to the top herself, there are various examples. Here is a list of the 10 most famous ex-contestants, excluding the winners.

• GNTM: Independent & Successful afterwards

Lena Gercke: All-round talent and #1 GNTM

The first season of the casting show “Germany’s Next Top Model” was broadcast in 2006. The first winner, who is still very successful today, was Lena Gercke. She won a modeling contract with IMG Models and became the cover model of the German Cosmopolitan magazine. In this article you can find out how her career and private life developed after this time.

Sarina Nowak: Curvy Model Idol

There are an infinite number of beautiful women in this world. But only a few fit the measurements of the perfect catwalk model. For a girl to be perfect for modeling, she should ideally be between 15 and 18 years old and her body proportions should be around 84 (bust) / 60 (waist) / 89 (hips). However, it is not always the case that every girl is born slim. Girls who have problems maintaining such a weight feel pressured by such guidelines and end up with anorexia or bulimia. At some point after her participation in GNTM, Sarina Nowak no longer felt like starving herself for the specified values. Why should she adapt to the fashion world when the fashion world can adapt to her?

The category of curvy model, or plus-size model, has existed for a number of years and refers to models with a dress size larger than 38. The women are usually between 18 and 40 years old and have good proportions. Sarina Nowak has discovered this industry for herself. She is now a very successful curvy model. And the best thing about it? She can eat what she wants and feels comfortable in her own skin.

Rebecca Mir: Model, presenter & mom

When is it more annoying to fail than just before the finish line? Rebecca Mir had to leave the 6th season of Germany’s Next Top Model as runner-up. In hindsight, Rebecca is much more successful than her then rival and winner Jana Beller. Rebecca has proven that she was born to be in the public eye! Rebecca has a face that looks familiar to everyone. It’s hard not to know the 26-year-old, as she is not only booked for various catwalk and advertising jobs, but also hosts many well-known TV shows.

Toni Dreher: Winner season 13

It’s almost time for GNTM to start again! Anyone who regularly follows GNTM will know that this year’s winner was Toni Dreher-Adenuga. After a very exciting season with a wide variety of characters, the 18-year-old won the title. She was one of the favorites right from the start.

Barbara Meier: Now lives in Vienna

Anyone who has been following GNTM for several years will certainly remember the red-haired winner Barbara Meier. The then 20-year-old won the 2007 season completely unplanned. After she was approached by a model scout in a shopping center in Regensburg and invited to the GNTM casting, things only went uphill for her.

It will soon be that time again. Applications for the 17th season of Germany’s Next Top Model have been pouring in recently. People have been busy posting pictures on Instagram under the hashtag #IchbinGNTM2022 in the hope of being invited to the new casting. In this article, you can find out everything about how you can apply for GNTM and what will change in the new season.

Heidi Klum: Career of the jury boss

“Heidi Klum” is a name that means something to just about everyone. The model is not only known in Germany, but also in other parts of the world. She is particularly well known for her self-founded casting show “Germany’s Next Top Model”, on which she acts as presenter, juror and producer.

• Heidi Klum: Career

Throwback! This is what Heidi looked like 20 years ago as a New Faces (up-and-coming model):

Karl Who? the cult of Karl Lagerfeld’s living space

Anyone who hears “Karl” and immediately thinks of black sunglasses, a tight white braid and a stiff collar knows the fashion icon Lagerfeld – and understands why his Parisian apartment went under the hammer for a dizzying sum. Five years after his death, his home made for a brilliant finale: sold for a hefty ten million euros, and that’s no bargain price, it’s a statement!

The bidding battle! From 5.3 to 10 million US dollars!

How does an auction like this actually work?

It’s all happening at an auction! You start with an amount, which in the case of Lagerfeld’s luxury love was already 5.3 million euros. Then it’s time to put on your poker face and hope that the other bidders don’t realize how much you want the piece. After all, prices rise, hearts beat faster and when the last “Sold!” is heard, you know it’s more than just a purchase – it’s an event.

In the heart of Paris: live when millions flow

Two videos brought the live action straight from Paris to the world. Like at a fashion show, fashion victims and real estate moguls sat on the digital front row while the bids for the Lagerfeld loft shot through the roof. What a show! You could almost feel Karl somewhere watching the spectacle with an ironic smile.

Lagerfeld was already a magnet at Paris Fashion Week, and he still is today.

More than just four walls: Lagerfeld’s apartment as a style symbol

Sure, the apartment has style – like everything Karl touched. But it’s about more than that: it’s about the attitude to life that the designer embodied. Every corner, every view out of the window onto the Seine tells a story of fashion, of art, of Paris. Anyone who lives here is not just buying square meters, but a piece of fashion history.

Karl who?!

Karl Lagerfeld’s influence on the fashion world was enormous – he was not only the creative director of Chanel, but also a visionary designer who knew how to combine tradition and innovation. His apartment? A reflection of his character: elegant, extravagant and with a pinch of flamboyance. And who knows, perhaps the new chapter of this place will be just as exciting as the last. One thing is certain: the spirit of Karl continues to waft through the rooms, while somewhere out there, in a new home, a fan giggles in his legendary leather gloves.

Designer through and through.

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!

Why we will be hearing a lot more from Dasha

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.

FIV: What goals have you set yourself for the future? Where would you like to be in a few years, both professionally and privately?

Dasha: I definitely want to make it big. I want to continue to be a fly-by and leave even more footprints

Esther Perbandt: Gender non-conforming fashion, interdisciplinary projects & musical passion.

Born in Berlin, shaped in Moscow and refined in Paris, she has had a fascinating journey. From her childhood and adolescence, she was influenced by the open-mindedness of her parents, who were involved in feminist movements and strived for greater inclusion. These early influences shaped her character and sparked her avant-garde aspirations. Esther Perbandt’s imagination was sparked by growing up without a television, but with a huge costume box and many other creative tools. By the age of twelve she had already found her calling as a fashion designer and did everything necessary to achieve this goal, despite the risks involved.

“Black is colorful” & gender non-conforming designs.

Esther Perbandt describes her fashion as an act of gender-unspecific (post-)feminism. Her avant-garde style focuses on personality, autonomy and individuality. She deconstructs the non-binary silhouette and redefines it with classic menswear details, while preserving timeless aspects of elegance and style. Through her “Black is colorful” philosophy, she uses the color black as a platform for artful creations that combine timeless elegance and a rebellious touch.

Overcoming limits and challenges

Interdisciplinary collaboration plays a central role in Esther Perbandt’s work. Numerous collaborations in the fields of film, music and theater attest to this, including projects with Rammstein and their frontman Till Lindemann, photographer Sven Marquardt, composer Sven Helbig, film directors Nicholas Mockridge and Zoran Bihac, choreographer Sasha Waltz and conductor Theodor Currentzis. Constantly overcoming limits and challenges is what drives the fashion designer.

Music as a source of inspiration

Esther Perbandt is a strong personality who brings her perspectives and passions to the table. She draws on many years of experience and encounters and is firmly rooted in her values and ideals. The love of music plays a significant role in Esther Perbandt’s life. She has proven her talent many times and finds inspiration in music to recharge her batteries, reflect and connect with life. Music and fashion are closely connected and tell stories. Esther Perbandt seeks inspiration in the past, present and future to constantly expand her creative horizons. Her own music also enriches the experience of her fans and supporters.

In fashion, Esther Perbandt follows different paths, especially in creating haute couture looks for numerous events and in the field of costume design.

The future may be uncertain, but one thing is certain: Esther Perbandt will always surprise and delight us. Her unique vision, avant-garde style and artistic versatility make her an outstanding personality in the fashion world.

Most of the materials Avenir uses come from the Berlin textile port, mainly denim. The remaining fabrics are sourced from various wholesalers who specialize in remnants. These sourcing methods minimize the ecological footprint and create a variety of unique materials.

Handmade made-to-order orders

Made-to-order orders are handmade in Berlin and form the main part of Avenir’s business model. Each garment is made individually according to the customer’s wishes and needs, resulting in a personalized and unique experience.

With its innovative approach to upcycling and focus on sustainable production, Avenir creates fashion that is both stylish and environmentally friendly. The brand shows that a sustainable fashion industry is possible, setting a positive example for a conscious use of resources and materials.
