So You Want To Be A Model? Move To The Best Cities !
It is difficult for a serious aspiring professional model to get the right breaks and eventually succeed in her profession unless she is in the right city. We have compiled a list of cities that anybody serious about a career in professional modelling should shift to.
You are a beautiful and highly talented young woman and an aspiring supermodel, and can't wait to make your first move in the fashion industry. But unfortunately you live in Kansas City, which is not exactly the center of global fashion. But you are very serious about becoming a professional model, and are willing to make the move to a new city if that is what is required. We understand how tough things are for aspiring models just like you in many parts of the country, as great modelling jobs are limited only to a few big cities. We have compiled a list of great cities you should consider moving to, on your way to becoming - who knows - the next Gisele Budchen, or the next Claudia Schaffer.
Read on.
1. New York - what else? Heart of the global fashion empire. The best models live and work here. Being the financial capital of the world also helps. If you are young, talented and hot as hell - New York is looking for you. Money, glamour, glitz, haute couture, hot celebrities - there is nothing that New York does not offer for an aspiring model. However, the competition is extreme in its intensity. Getting noticed won't be easy. Being part of the best modelling agencies in New York takes some doing. But if you have the talent, and the looks, and the smarts - go for it girl!
2. Miami - the city of beaches and hot beach bodies has quite possibly the highest concentration of great looking people in the world. It is a great place to get into a Catalog shoot. The best fashion photographers visit Miami in the winter to take advantage of the hot and sunny Miami weather. You might be a part of some great shoots in Miami.
3. Los Angeles - the city of actors and models. This is a great place to move to if you have dreams of being a model and also if you have other ambitions different from modelling - such as acting ambitions. Hollywood recruits heavily from the models in Los Angeles, and who knows, you may get your first break in Hollywood - while making a name for yourself in the Los Angeles modelling circuit. Definitely worth a try.
4. Europe - or London, Paris, Milan. Moving to Europe would be making a serious statement. The very best models, the very best modelling jobs, the greatest fashion designers, the top haute couture fashion brands - they are all in the European cities of London, Milan and Paris. Paris is really the grand lady of world fashion. If you succeed in Paris, you have got your life made as a supermodel. Milan defines the word "style". Some of the loveliest women in the world live in Milan. London offers great advantages as you don't have to learn a new language there and the modelling jobs are just as good as anywhere in the world. As we said earlier, by moving to Europe you would be making a serious statement about yourself and about your ambitions as a professional model.
