Creative Artists Agency (CAA) Acquires International Creative Management (ICM) – The Big Four Talent Agencies Become The Big Three Talent Agencies

Creative Artists Agency (CAA) Acquires International Creative Management (ICM) – The Big Four Talent Agencies Become The Big Three Talent Agencies

In blockbuster news, two of the big four talent agencies in Hollywood are coming together and getting married.

Legendary talent agency Creative Artists Agency (CAA) is acquiring the prestigious talent agency International Creative Management (ICM) Partners. This will be one of the biggest talent agency mergers since William Morris and Endeavor got married in the year 2009 to form William Morris Endeavor (WME). 

The big four talent agencies Creative Artists Agency (CAA), William Morris Endeavor (WME), United Talent Agency (UTA), and International Creative Management (ICM) are now the big three talent agencies.

Creative Artists Agency (CAA), a leading entertainment and sports agency released a statement:

“Today’s storytellers, athletes, thought-leaders, and trend-setters who can move, inspire, and attract large, global audiences have unprecedented opportunity and ability to achieve their goals and aspirations,” said CAA’s Bryan Lourd, Kevin Huvane, and Richard Lovett. “The strategic combination of CAA and ICM bolsters our collective resources, expertise, and relationships to deliver even more opportunities for our world-class clients to build their careers and their brands across multiple disciplines and platforms in an evolving marketplace. Our strong financial position enables us to continue to expand and diversify our businesses, with service and representation remaining central to what we do and who we are. We’re fortunate to have a partner in ICM who shares our commitment to the widest and most inclusive vision possible for what our clients and company can accomplish together.”

ICM representatives also commented:

“We’re thrilled to partner and combine forces with the talented CAA team,” said ICM’s Chris Silbermann, who will join CAA’s shareholder board. “Together, we will build upon our accomplishments and entrepreneurial spirit, and continue to demonstrate an unwavering commitment to the best interests of our clients, as well as empowering new, diverse voices within the industry.”

The complementary combination of CAA and ICM will create deeper, broader, and more competitive opportunities for clients in the ever-evolving entertainment, media, and sports landscapes. ICM brings to CAA a global roster of artists in film, television, music, comedy, theater, games, politics, and podcasting. ICM’s industry-leading books division superbly complements CAA’s content-driven motion pictures, television, and podcasting businesses, in addition to its speakers arm, and other divisions. Further, ICM’s London-based ICM Stellar Sports, serves more than 800 clients around the globe and maintains offices in 10 countries.

CAA is a leading entertainment, media, and sports enterprise, with global expertise in motion pictures, television, music, sports, theater, digital media, publishing, endorsements, media finance, consumer investing, fashion, podcasting, speaking, games, and philanthropy. Led by a world-class management team and distinguished by its culture of collaboration and exceptional client service, CAA’s diverse workforce identifies and innovates opportunities for the people and organizations that shape culture and inspire the world. CAA was the first entertainment talent agency to build a sports business, create an investment bank, launch a venture fund, found technology start-up companies, and establish a business in China, among other industry innovations. A subsidiary of CAA, Entertainment Benefits Group (EBG) is a leader in corporate entertainment and travel, with more than 40,000 clients and 60 million users. Founded in 1975, CAA is headquartered in Los Angeles, and has a significant presence in New York, Nashville, London, Beijing, and Shanghai, as well as offices in Atlanta, Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Geneva, Jacksonville, Las Vegas, Memphis, Miami, Munich, Orlando, Stockholm, and Toronto, among other locations globally.

ICM is one of the world’s premier entertainment, media, sports agencies, dedicated to the global representation of artists, content creators, broadcasters, authors, artisans, journalists, and athletes in film, television, sports, publishing, theater, music, live performance, podcasting, branding, endorsements, product placements, sponsorship, commercials, broadcasting, speaking, and politics. Originally founded in 1975 as International Creative Management, then rebranded as ICM Partners in 2012, ICM has the expertise and influence of a legacy agency, and an entrepreneurial innovative spirit dedicated to serving its clients across the globe with passion and distinction. ICM has offices in Los Angeles, New York, Washington D.C., and London, and strategic partnerships in Europe, Asia, and beyond.

The transaction is expected to close later this year, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including the receipt of regulatory approvals. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Allen & Company LLC served as financial advisor for CAA, and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz as legal advisor.

Lazard served as financial advisor for ICM, with Sheppard Mullin and Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP as legal advisors.

Final Thoughts:

The ripple effect will be immense, and there will undoubtedly be departures, layoffs, and restructuring. We wonder which clients will stay and which will exit to other talent agencies. Many people went to the smaller International Creative Management (ICM) for fear of being lost in the larger Creative Artists Agency (CAA) system. Now you have a massive number of talent to represent, so how do you stand out in your agent’s minds when they now have to represent some of the most famous and successful talent on planet Earth?

Aside from these worries, it will be extremely interesting to see how this changes the talent agency industry as a whole. For example, International Creative Management (ICM) has a huge publishing and literary division, with direct access to intellectual property that many of the top clients in the industry might want to access in the future.

What Is The Difference Between Haute Couture And Prêt-À-Porter (Ready-To-Wear) In Fashion Modeling? How To Become A Haute Couture Fashion Model

Above: The Difference Between Haute Couture And Prêt-À-Porter (Ready-To-Wear) In Fashion Modeling. How To Become A Haute Couture Fashion Model.

Are you a brand new fashion model and wondering what is the difference between Prêt-à-Porter (ready-to-wear) and Haute Couture? Well, wonder no more as we explain from a high fashion point of view the real difference between Haute Couture and Prêt-à-Porter (ready-to-wear) not just for women in general, but also for New York fashion models getting ready for their first Haute Couture and Prêt-à-Porter (ready-to-wear) runway shows in Paris, France.

Probably the two most misused and abused words in the world of high fashion modeling are Prêt-à-Porter (ready-to-wear) and Haute Couture. While these fashion words are casually thrown around and used by even the most experienced high fashion designers, there are indeed very specific meanings to those two extremely important fashion words.

Before we start, it is very important to know the literal meanings behind these beautiful sounding French phrases. Prêt-à-Porter literally means Ready-to-Wear. Haute Couture is generally used to describe anything High Fashion. This is not too far off from its true French meaning, as Haute Couture literally means high sewing or high dressmaking in English.

What Is Haute Couture In Fashion Modeling & What Are The Top Haute Couture Modeling Agencies For Haute Couture Fashion Models?

Every Haute Couture piece is made to measure for a single woman. Every woman interested in purchasing Haute Couture will go to a Parisian atelier for measurements and fittings. This is because every Haute Couture piece is tailored to each individual woman, both in style and size.

Haute Couture fashion is considered the highest quality in the world of high fashion, and will generally also be sold at the highest possible prices (if you need to ask for the price of your Haute Couture gown at your favorite Parisian atelier, you probably should not be purchasing Haute Couture gowns in the first place). In addition, there are actually specific high fashion standards that a Haute Couture piece much reach to be deemed Couture. Vogue magazine (known as the fashion Bible) once described Couture pieces as walking pieces of art, which is indeed true because Haute Couture pieces are designed to be worn by very few women, and many times, just one woman.

Regardless of how exclusive a Haute Couture piece is, it is not really Haute Couture until the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture in France actually says it is Haute Couture. Upon the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture’s seal of approval, a fashion house is considered Haute Couture by French law. This is not very easy to achieve, as there are strict fashion criteria a fashion house must meet to even be considered Haute Couture. First, a fashion house must have a workshop in Paris France that employs at least fifteen full-time staff members. Second, the fashion house must design made-to-order pieces for women with at least one fitting. These high fashion standards ensure that Haute Couture labels deliver impeccably tailored dresses and gowns that will be an exact and perfect fit for each and every woman. Understandably, there are only approximately fifteen Haute Couture studios in Paris France today, including widely acclaimed and world renowned Haute Couture fashion houses Chanel and Dior.

Haute Couture gowns and Haute Couture dresses are gowns and dresses made of the highest quality in the world of high fashion. All Haute Couture gowns and Haute Couture dresses are handmade, are made to measure using the exact body measurements of a woman (bust, waist, hips, etc.), and require much time and skill to produce. Thus, this level of extreme high quality in the Haute Couture production process means that Haute Couture gowns and Haute Couture dresses are sold at very high prices to generally very wealthy women. In other words, customers of Haute Couture gowns and Haute Couture dresses are generally in the top percentile of wealth, as Haute Couture is the highest you can pay with money within the fashion industry.

Haute Couture houses create a collection every summer and winter season. These Haute Couture collections often set the stage for future fashion trends within the Prêt-à-Porter collections (this is because Prêt-à-Porter collections often take inspiration from high fashion).

Haute Couture fashion houses are committed to present fashion collections twice each year, and these fashion collections must have at least 35 pieces (both day and evening wear). These Haute Couture fashion collections are presented at Haute Couture fashion shows every 6 months (half a year in advance) using experienced Haute Couture runway models from the top Haute Couture modeling agencies in the world (many of the top modeling agencies in the world have a modeling agency branch or office in Paris, France).

For example, the summer Haute Couture fashion collection of a Haute Couture fashion house will generally be presented in Paris in January (approximately 6 months in advance), while the Haute Couture winter collection will be presented around July of each year. Haute Couture runway shows are beautiful, artistic, elaborate, and visually exciting fashion shows featuring many famous Haute Couture runway models that are represented by many of the most prestigious modeling agencies for runway models from Paris, New York, and from around the world. With elaborate sets and invite-only guest lists, these Haute Couture fashion shows are as exclusive as the Haute Couture pieces themselves.

What Is Prêt-À-Porter In Fashion Modeling & What Are The Top Prêt-À-Porter Modeling Agencies For Prêt-À-Porter Fashion Models?

Prêt-à-Porter is high quality, factory made fashion. While Prêt-à-Porter clothing is not necessarily mass produced, it is available to a wide variety of women around the world. Prêt-à-Porter fashion collections are made for many women in different sizes, and while they range in price and quality, a common characteristic of Prêt-à-Porter is that their fashion collections are designed within the bounds of standardized sizing for women. In addition, Prêt-à-Porter dresses and gowns are not meant to fit perfectly or require a tailor (Prêt-à-Porter clothing simply fits the majority of women fairly well without the need of a tailor).

Usually Prêt-à-Porter clothing is available twice each year, and these fashion collections are not made to order. The rate at which fashion companies are able to produce Ready-to-Wear fashion collections varies from Haute Couture in that Ready-to-Wear fashion collections for women are produced at faster rates, and in higher quantities. While Prêt-à-Porter dresses may be of high quality and take inspiration from Haute Couture dresses and Haute Couture gowns, the Prêt-à-Porter fashion collections lack the exclusivity of Haute Couture clothing since women could find Prêt-à-Porter clothing (dresses, skirts, etc.) in many different high fashion retail stores (including their online stores).

Prêt-à-Porter fashion shows are generally presented one year in advance. Haute Couture fashion brands, such as Chanel and Dior, often present a Prêt-à-Porter fashion collection. These Prêt-à-Porter fashion collections are generally presented during Fashion Week (which is not really a week but more like an entire month), a period of time when every name in fashion gathers in specific cities located around the world (which is why Fashion Week is extremely exhausting and stressful for even the most experienced runway models). The most famous of these fashion weeks take place in New York, London, Milan, and Paris (also known as the four fashion capitals of the world). Prêt-à-Porter fashion shows are also often elaborate and artistic, with exclusive guest lists for celebrities, the press, industry insiders (such as retail fashion buyers and fashion magazine editors), and of course very wealthy women with a lot of money and free time on their hands to actually purchase those beautiful fashion dresses and skirts as seen on the fashion runways of the world.

Photography By Dimitrios Kambouris Via WireImage.

Gisele Bundchen left IMG Models in early 2021 after approximately 22 years of being represented by the fashion modeling agency. Gisele Bunchen is one of the world’s most famous fashion models, and now she’s saying goodbye to her fashion modeling agency, IMG Models, after 22 years of working together. The 40 year old supermodel beauty is reportedly taking her fashion modeling representation in-house, with twin sister and manager Patricia Bundchen set to take the reigns of her fashion modeling career.

Gisele is believed to be one of the modeling industry’s top earners. Discovered when she was just 14 years old while at a mall in her native Brazil, the 5 foot 11 inches supermodel became a fashion modeling star during New York Fashion Week in 1996, having made her runway debut just two years earlier in 1994.

Gisele Bundchen was a Victoria’s Secret Angel from 2000 to 2007, wearing the coveted Fantasy Bra in 2000 and 2005, and has also graced over 41 Vogue covers throughout her fabulous fashion modeling career. In 2016 Brazilian supermodel announced she was quitting the catwalk, sharing on Instagram and writing:

‘I am grateful that at 14, I was given the opportunity to start this journey.

‘Today after 20 years in the industry, it is a privilege to be doing my last fashion show by choice and yet still be working in other facets of the business.’

Her final runway walk was something of a homecoming, modeling looks from Colcci during Sao Paulo Fashion Week in April 2016. However, Brazilian fashion model Gisele Bundchen has continued to pose for magazine fashion editorials and luxury fashion campaigns around the world. News of the retired Victoria’s Secret Angel’s representation came after her husband Tom Brady won his seventh NFL Championship during the Super Bowl.

Gisele was there to celebrate with her 43 year old loving husband Tom Brady, bringing his three kids Vivian, Benjamin, and Jack on the field during the Super Bowl to congratulate their famous dad (two of the three children are Gisele’s). The power couple shared a passionate kiss before the Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback accepted his MVP trophy that night in Super Bowl LV. Gisele Bundchen’s husband Tom Brady also broke his own record for oldest player to win a Super Bowl and joins Hall of Famer Peyton Manning as the only quarterbacks to win the Super Bowl trophy with multiple franchises.

  • Gisele Bündchen’s birth date: July 20, 1980.
  • Nationality: Brazil.
  • 17.2 Million Instagram Followers (June 2021).

“Brazilian fashion model Gisele Bundchen has earned over $497 million dollars from fashion modeling since the beginning of this century.”

Gisele Bündchen is arguably one of the most successful models of all time. Over more than 20 years in fashion, she built an unprecedented modeling career. During this time, she became the face of countless global campaigns for the most prominent brands and graced more than a thousand magazine covers, such as Time, Forbes, Rolling Stone, and the top fashion magazines including Vogue, W, Elle, and Harper’s Bazar. She has been photographed by the most prestigious photographers and walked the runaway for the most iconic fashion brands in the world.

Her path was so outstanding that a new term had to be created to define her presence in fashion. Gisele became known as a “Übermodel,” meaning “more than a supermodel.” In the late 90s and early 2000s, Gisele ushered in a big change in the era’s typical stereotype and brought to fashion a new look: a healthy body, curves and a golden tan. She also broke standards when she was able to combine a remarkable fashion career and a bustling commercial career. But her success is not only credited to her beautiful face and sculptural body. Her professionalism, positive attitude and contagious energy have been singled out by many as decisive traits in reaching the top of her career.

Furthermore, Gisele is also recognized for her passion and commitment to the environment. Along with her father in 2008 she created a project called “Agua Limpa” who planted more than 40,000 trees and was able to help the quality of the water in her hometown, Horizontina. In acknowledgment of her dedication to the environment, she was designated a Goodwill Ambassador for United Nations Environment Program in 2009. Since then, she has been working with the UN to draw attention to environmental issues and undertaken field missions in Brazil, Kenya, and the U.S. With a global reach, she uses her notoriety to raise awareness about the importance of protecting our planet and all living beings to make the world a healthier and happier place for her children and all generations to come.

3. Karlie Kloss (United States) with model earnings for the year of at least $5 million dollars.

Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima has been a Maybelline Contract beauty model from approximately the years 2003 until 2009 and a Victoria’s Secret model (she eventually became a Victoria’s Secret Angel) for almost two decades from approximately the year 2000 until the 2018 Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Adriana Lima married Serbian basketball player Marko Jaric in early 2009 and gave birth to their daughter Valentina in November 2009. To stay fit, Adriana Lima jumps rope and does shadow boxing. Legend says that Adriana Lima also paints watercolor canvases in her spare time and that she is secretly obsessed with frozen grapes and Brazilian soap operas.

It is also very important to note that legendary Brazilian supermodel Adriana Lima along with legendary Brazilian supermodels Gisele Bundchen and Alessandra Ambrosio have ruled the lists of the Highest Paid Fashion Models In The World and the Highest Paid Models In The Fashion Modeling Industry for most of the past 15 years.

7. Candice Swanepoel (South Africa) with model earnings for the year of at least $3 million dollars.

Legendary South African supermodel is a fashion model that needs no introduction. Raised on a beautiful farm in South Africa, little did she probably imagine that she would one day eventually become one of the greatest and most famous supermodels of our time. Without a doubt, Candice Swanepoel is not only one of South Africa’s most famous exports, but also one of the country’s most beautiful supermodels who also happens to make millions of dollars from fashion modeling (this is because brains and beauty can be an extremely powerful combination for the world’s top fashion models and supermodels).

The Importance Of Modeling Agencies In Los Angeles And New York

If you live on the West Coast (Western United States) you will need a top modeling agency that is among the largest and most prestigious modeling agencies in the United States. Otherwise, you might be at a disadvantage versus women that are based in New York, one of the fashion capitals of the world. The reason for this is that Free People recruits heavily from New York modeling agencies, and not just any modeling agencies, but the largest and most prestigious female modeling agencies in New York.

Free People models are among the most recognized and highest paid models in the world. In order to become a Free People model you will need an almost perfect body (or a perfect body) as well as a very successful high fashion modeling portfolio. You will need a modeling agent that will guide you throughout your modeling career which will be assigned to you once you are invited to join a modeling agency. Your mother agency will then place you with other prestigious modeling agencies if you are outside New York or if you live in other countries so that these world class modeling agencies for women that have partnered with your mother agency may fly you from your home town in order to give you an audition with Free People.

In addition, it is highly recommended that a fashion model not have any tattoos if she would like to model for Free People.

I Have The Perfect Body And A Beautiful Face So Why Am I Not A Free People Model?

Once you have the perfect agent, the perfect modeling agencies (most supermodels have multiple modeling agencies for total global representation, as well as a mother agency that handles the exclusive contracts with the other modeling agencies for different countries, territories, and jurisdictions), and the perfect body and face, you will need the perfect personality.

Taylor Swift Releases Her New Version Of Song Love Story (Taylor’s Version) From Her Fearless Music Album, But This Time The Music Belongs To Her And Not Her Music Record Company (Music Label)

Above: Taylor Swift Releases Her New Version Of Song Love Story (Taylor’s Version) From Her Fearless Music Album, But This Time The Music Belongs To Her And Not Her Music Record Company (Music Label).

Thirteen years ago, Taylor Swift opened her song “Love Story” with a memory: “We were both young when I first saw you,” the precocious country star, then 18, sang in the lead single from her 2008 “Fearless” album, “I close my eyes and the flashback starts.”

On Thursday night (February 11, 2021), legendary 10 times Grammy Awards winner Taylor Swift, now 31 years old and one of the world’s most famous and highest paid music singers, released a re-recorded version of the Romeo and Juliet theme “Love Story” as the first sample from a highly anticipated re-release of her famous “Fearless” music album due April 9, 2021. Co-produced by Taylor Swift and Chris Rowe (a longtime Nashville music studio professional who worked on Taylor Swift’s early music records) and featuring a number of the musicians who played on the original, the new “Love Story” — officially titled “Love Story (Taylor’s Version)” — is virtually indistinguishable from the original song version that gave Taylor Swift her first top 10 music hit when she was not yet the world famous music star that she is today.

Taylor Swift Grammy Awards

(Lifetime Awards)

10 Wins, 41 Nominations (February 14, 2021)

After more than a year of anticipation, Taylor Swift has begun releasing re-recorded versions of her old music classics, starting with “Love Story” which was originally released in late 2008 as the lead single for Taylor Swift’s second music album “Fearless.” It has been certified eight-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America and is widely considered to be Taylor Swift’s signature song.

The new “Love Story” version released on Friday remains largely faithful to the country pop original song, which was inspired by William Shakespeare’s “Romeo and Juliet” story.

Back in August 2019, Taylor Swift confirmed her plans to re-record her first six music albums, from her self-titled debut to 2017’s “Reputation” music album. The original master recordings were owned by Big Machine Records, the Nashville based music label where Taylor Swift signed her first record contract at age 15 (ownership of a music artist’s masters, which is typical of a major music label company, is what enables the music label company to profit from music sales and music streams and to control the use of the artist’s music in movies, television shows, and television commercials).

After her music contract expired in 2018, Taylor Swift signed with Universal Music Group, whose terms allow her to retain the rights to all new music (a catalog that now includes 2019’s “Lover,” 2020’s “Folklore,” and 2020’s “Evermore”).

The real drama began when celebrity music manager Scooter Braun (who represents music stars Kanye West, Ariana Grande, and Justin Bieber) purchased Big Machine Records (the acquisition was done through his company Ithaca Holdings) in June 2019 for approximately $300 million United States dollars. Taylor Swift said she was “sad and grossed out” that Scooter Braun had acquired ownership of her music catalog and accused him of bullying her in the past.

Bothered by music executive Scooter Braun’s purchase of her old label Big Machine Records in 2019, Taylor Swift said that year that she planned to re-record her first six music albums as a way to potentially diminish the value of the master recordings acquired by Scooter Braun, known among other things for his work with Taylor Swift’s longtime nemesis Kanye West.

Just 17 months later, Scooter Braun sold Taylor Swift’s music catalog (and master rights) to Shamrock Capital, an investment fund, for more than $300 million United States dollars. According to Taylor Swift, Shamrock Capital offered to work with her, but she declined when she learned that Scooter Braun would retain a financial interest in her music. In a letter she posted on Twitter, Taylor Swift told Shamrock’s partners that she intended to proceed with re-recording her old music — the idea being that her new song versions would supplant the originals in the music market.

Taylor Swift’s Fortune

$365 Million United States Dollars (According To Forbes Magazine, October 2020)

The question is why did Taylor Swift remake “Fearless,” her second music studio album, first? By some measures the music album “Fearless” is Taylor Swift’s most successful LP (an LP is a full-length music album), having sold more than 10 million copies and winning four Grammy Awards, including album of the year. The new edition of “Fearless” will feature 26 songs, including previously unreleased songs Taylor Swift wrote around the same time as “Love Story” and other music hits like “Fifteen” and “You Belong With Me” which made Taylor Swift very famous.

In a note to her music fans, Taylor Swift said that her approach to re-recording “Fearless” would hopefully help illuminate her desire to remake and re-release old music.

“Artists should own their own work for so many reasons, but the most screamingly obvious one is that the artist is the only one who really knows that body of work,” Taylor Swift wrote to her music fans. “For example, only I know which songs I wrote that almost made the ‘Fearless’ album,” she continued. “Songs I absolutely adored, but were held back for different reasons.”

The updated version will include six additional tracks that were never officially released. “I’ve decided I want you to have the whole story, see the entire vivid picture, and let you into the entire dreamscape that is my ‘Fearless’ album,” Taylor Swift wrote to her hundreds of millions of music fans located around the world.

Have you ever wondered what happens to fashion models and supermodels at New York Fashion Week, Paris Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, and Milan Fashion Week? Well, wonder no more, as ZARZAR MODELS takes you behind the scenes and explains to wannabe and newly recruited fashion models what Fashion Week is all about, and most importantly what it truly is like to attend New York Fashion Week casting calls, Paris Fashion Week and New York Fashion Week modeling auditions, and if you are lucky and beautiful enough, what it truly feels like to walk the New York fashion runways for many of the world’s most prestigious and famous fashion brands.

Above: What Really Happens To Fashion Models At Paris Fashion Week Modeling Auditions & New York Fashion Week Modeling Auditions. The Secrets Of What Really Happens To New Female Fashion Models Attending Paris Fashion Week Casting Calls & New York Fashion Week Casting Calls.

What Is New York Fashion Week?

New York Fashion Week held in February and September of each year, is a semi-annual series of events (generally lasting 7–9 days) when international fashion collections are shown to buyers, the press, and the general public. New York Fashion Week is one of the four major fashion weeks in the world, the others being Paris Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, and Milan Fashion Week.

Above: What Really Happens To Fashion Models At Paris Fashion Week Modeling Auditions & New York Fashion Week Modeling Auditions. The Secrets Of What Really Happens To New Female Fashion Models Attending Paris Fashion Week Casting Calls & New York Fashion Week Casting Calls.

What Is Paris Fashion Week?

Paris Fashion Week held in late February / early March and then again in late September / early October of each year, is a semi-annual series of events (generally lasting 7–9 days) when international fashion collections are shown to buyers, the press, and the general public. Paris Fashion Week is one of the four major fashion weeks in the world, the others being New York Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, and Milan Fashion Week.

What Is Fashion Month?

Fashion month is generally a four week period of high fashion runway shows that is scheduled twice a year in February and September, during which fashion designers from around the world showcase their newest and most beautiful fashion collections.

A big surprise experienced by many newly recruited fashion models by the top modeling agencies in the world (including many fashion models that grew up in New York City and join a top New York modeling agency) is that Fashion Week is not really a week, but more like a month (which can be extremely exhausting for new fashion models, experienced fashion models, famous fashion models, and even supermodels).

Even more surprising for new fashion models is that they have to travel to a different country every week during that whole month, and then repeat the whole process again (traveling from fashion city to fashion city covering four different countries in two different continents separated by the Atlantic Ocean) approximately six months later for another full month of nerve-racking modeling auditions, casting calls, and high fashion runway shows.

Not yet impressed? Well, we are just getting started because we haven’t even included Paris Haute Couture Week which is generally held in January and July of each year, plus all the other important Fashion Weeks such as Brazil’s São Paulo Fashion Week (Latin America’s pre-eminent fashion event), Madrid Fashion Week (Spain), and Berlin Fashion Week (Germany), all of which are also held twice each year. In other words, if you are a top fashion model or supermodel represented by a top modeling agency, chances are that you will have an extremely busy and full fashion runway modeling schedule during the year, and this is without counting scheduled work for print advertisements (which can pay extremely well if they are for top fashion brands), as well as fashion editorials for prestigious fashion magazines such as Vogue, Elle, Harper’s Bazaar, and W magazine.

That said, a top fashion model will probably not have the time to do all of these additional Fashion Weeks (beyond the “Big Four” Fashion Weeks mentioned above which receive the majority of press coverage) because she will also most likely want to audition for television commercials (which can pay over $50,000.00 United States dollars per national television commercial), television shows that might require beautiful fashion models, and major motion pictures that might require beautiful fashion models with acting skills for secondary acting roles. In addition, top fashion models and supermodels might have clauses in their fashion modeling contracts with major fashion companies that might require them to reserve a few days each year for guest appearances at prestigious fashion events. Talk about exhilarating and exhausting work, and high fashion modeling should be the very first thing on your mind.

Fashion Week Schedule For High Fashion Models

Fashion Week generally starts in New York City before moving to London, Milan, and Paris (in that specific order). New fashion models, experienced fashion models, famous fashion models, and even supermodels generally stay between 7 to 9 days in each city (the four cities are collectively known around the world as the fashion capitals of the world). The clothes showcased at Fashion Week set the fashion agenda for the following months. Everything that you see in prestigious fashion magazines such as Vogue and on the shelves of high fashion retailers will most likely have been influenced by what was on display during the previous fashion month.

Who Gets Invited To New York Fashion Week? Who Gets To Attend Paris Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, & Milan Fashion Week In Beautiful Italy?

Despite its huge impact on the fashion industry, Fashion Week remains an invite-only fashion event. The front row for many of the top fashion shows is usually made up of the most important fashion editors, fashion buyers, and fashion influencers, while other members of the fashion industry (think modeling agency agents, less important retail buyers, etc.) typically fill up the rows behind during each high fashion show.

That said, there are still plenty of fashion parties and fashion events that sell tickets to the general public. In London, for example, there is London Fashion Week Festival, which is organized by the British Fashion Council and takes place immediately after Fashion Week. In addition, exclusive fashion shopping events are also available, giving fashion fans an insight into what Fashion Week is all about as part of the fashion modeling industry.

What Is The Difference Between The February Fashion Week And September Fashion Week Runway Shows?

In February of each year, fashion designers will debut their fall (autumn) and winter fashion collections for that year (winter also covers the first few months of the following year in the northern hemisphere), while the spring and summer fashion collections for the following year are showcased in September. This is to give retail buyers and fashion editors in attendance enough time to choose what they would like to purchase or feature before the clothes arrive to high fashion retail stores.

The high fashion runway shows usually last no longer than 10 to 20 minutes, but fashion presentations (which give Fashion Week guests the opportunity to peruse collections in an exhibition type setting) can generally last a few hours.

New York Fashion Week For Fashion Runway Models

New York Fashion Week is normally the longest of all the Fashion Weeks, with a packed fashion runway schedule for fashion models and supermodels. New York Fashion Week highlights generally include the Ralph Lauren, Oscar de la Renta, Marc Jacobs, and Coach high fashion runway shows. In addition, New York Fashion Week runway shows can sometimes take place all around New York City, and not just in one central location.

London Fashion Week For Fashion Runway Models

London Fashion Week is similar to New York Fashion Week in that fashion designers often choose to host their own fashion runway shows in various locations throughout the capital. London Fashion Week highlights generally include the Burberry fashion runway show along with several other extremely important British and European fashion brands.

Milan Fashion Week For Fashion Runway Models

Milan offers some of the most beautiful, sophisticated, and entertaining fashion runway shows in the world, with famous fashion designers from Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Fendi, Versace, and Prada holding fashion modeling auditions and casting calls in order to book many of the most famous and top fashion models from around the world.
