Elite Model Look

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Elite Model Look is a yearly fashion modeling event held by Elite Model Management, an international model management group. It is used to discover and launch female fashion models in the international fashion marketplace, like the similar Ford Models' Supermodel of the World contest. Each year, hundreds of thousands contestants, typically between the ages of 14 and 18, compete in local contests for a chance to represent their country in the world final. Notable past contestants include Alessandra Ambrosio, Ana Beatriz Barros, Cindy Crawford, Dayana Mendoza, Diane Kruger, Esther Cañadas, Fernanda Tavares, Frederique van der Wal, Ruby Christine Martin, Gisele Bündchen, Inés Rivero, Isabeli Fontana, Kate Dillon Levin, Lara Stone, Petra Němcová, Stephanie Seymour, Tatjana Patitz and Ujjwala Raut.

In past years, the US finals were recorded to make a television special The Making of a Supermodel, which aired on E! Entertainment Television.
