Whats the best modeling agency??
John Casablancas is actually a “modeling center.” It’s purpose is to teach about modeling- it’s not an actual agency. John Casablancas, however, was a founder of the Elite Model Management International, which is a very good and well-known agency. An agency that I can personally attest for is LA Models. They are a very successful, innovative agency with an incredibly hard-working, supportive staff. The east coast branch of LA Models is NY Models, which is equally as good. One other agency that I also can personally attest for is International Model Management in Milan. Other well-known agencies are Ford Models, NEXT Models, and IMG Models. If you are looking locally though (and you are not near LA or NYC), most major cities have at least two or three reputable modeling agencies. Just remember that a legitimate modeling agency will never demand long-term contracts or ask for money up front. If you are unsure of an agency, check with your local Better Business Bureau.
