Model Searches

The W Marketing+Events division at Wilhelmina develops nationwide model searches. Each model search provides a unique experience which can include a chance of a lifetime for men, women, and children of all ages. Our agents travel across the country to meet thousands of contestants at model search open calls, and also carefully review all entries received. Winners receive a contract with Wilhelmina Models and have appeared in campaigns for Covergirl, Target, Ford Motor Company, and many, many more!


 

Our next open call will be Saturday, May 18th at 1pm (Please arrive at 12:45pm)
Fairfield Inn
11325 Viking Dr Eden Prairie, MN 55344
(This location was picked for easy parking since it will be very busy!)

Females: Wear Skinny jeans with a tank

Males: Jeans with a shirt

Some models come with portfolios and composites while others just bring snapshots. Dress casually in jeans and a tank. Apply simple makeup. (Very little makeup is best) Be natural in your photos.

At Wilhelmina, we represent all different types of professional models, in almost every age, size and ethnicity. We limit ourselves to a specific amount of models in each category. The height requirement for Runway female models is 5' 8" and above. For male models it is 5"11 and above.
