Models Switching Agencies

Melissa leaving Dmgmt for Women in Milan?? I sincerely hope its for the best.. and she doesn't get lost in the pack

Is the D Management placement of Melissa dated back to her time @ Fresh or did Union London sign her there (Somebody told me once but i forgot)? If it's on Fresh's part (like NYMM) and Union as her current motheragent prefers to work with another agency which seems to be Women here, then i understand her switch. Anyway, i don't think the switch turns out to be bad for her career since Milan-based agencies don't have thaaat much of an huge impact on a model's career provided that there is a strong placement in NYC/Paris. Well, even though it seems that this Women Paris/NYMM combination works rather dull for Melissa as there didn't pop up anything huge for her (print-wise) yet expect of a Bon International & Vogue Italia (Supplement by Kardel) Editorial. And this all after a show season of like 25 blue chip shows involving a Calvin Klein Exclusive, Burberry, Prada and Miu Miu.

Well , i just went to www.fashionista.com and there is an interview with Ali Micheal and it says that she is with IMG.She is still on DNA's website , so did fashionista make a mistake or is she leaving?

Definitely a mistake - they already changed it to DNA. (Though, it would've been a really interesting switch I have to admit...hah)

Im wondering how you guys always know when a model
switches ...is it something that people in the industry just discuss or
what?

Allegedly b/c Ford Paris really didn't get along with the old regime at Ford NYC. Apparently the new regime hasn't changed things.

 

[CharlottefromCA]

Well with the way things are going it looks to be Ford Paris' lost and Elite Paris' gain

 

[*Bianca*]

ford paris can't lose if they never had it to begin with

 

[CharlottefromCA]

Well they had Dree Hemmingway once upon a time.. and .. .. ...

yeah thats about it ..

Here's an article in the NY Post (via The Cut) talking about the recent agency switches from Next to Ford.

Interesting.....can we say major d-r-a-m-a.

 

[TREVOFASHIONISTO]

they act as if Anna J and Karmen were newcomers and
arent already established...they arent dummies they left for
a reason

Kelli Lumi Major Paris > Viva paris

Kelli Lumi Major Paris > Viva paris

I think this is a great move for Kelli

 

[cologne_rocks]

Yes sounds good for Kelli! I guess it's Viva due to the DNA connection.
