Odyssey Fashion Project - Model casting





Hello everyone!
I found out about a really incredible fashion project that is called “Odyssey Fashion Project”.
I see that they have a model casting for their fashion show that will be open to all aspiring models on 6th September 2014. The official fashion show will take place on 13th December 2014.

First of all, I will give a description about what the “Odyssey Fashion Project” is all about:
“Odyssey Fashion Project” is a Cape Town based fashion project that provides opportunities for new fashion designers and models to show their talent in the fashion industry.
The “Odyssey Fashion Project” was created by six individuals who are based in Cape Town and are the brains behind the finding of the “Odyssey Fashion Project”. These six individuals strive to create their own opportunities as young South Africans in the fashion industry.



The “Odyssey Fashion Project” has recently updated on their Facebook and Twitter page that they are looking for 12 females and 12 males to show the work of Cape Town’s aspiring/upcoming designers and local brands at an Odyssey fashion show that is scheduled to take place on 13th December 2014.
The “Odyssey Fashion Project” is not a modelling agency, but all models that are selected for the fashion show will get the benefits which are offered by the project itself.

The model casting will happen on Saturday, 6th September 2014. There will be a panel of judges who will be present at the venue, which is at the Erin Hall.
Erin Hall is located at numbers 8 – 10 Erin Road in Rondebosch. (Directions to the venue will be available on “Odyssey Fashion Project” Facebook page closer to the time of the model casting).
The time for the model casting will be between 10h00AM – 16h00PM. You can go and cast anytime you wish between these times given.  You are welcome to leave once you have completed the casting process.

The requirements that are needed are the following:
·         You must be between the ages of 16 and 24 for both male and females.
·         A certified copy of your South African I.D. (If you do not have an I.D, bring your birth certificate along with you).
·         There will be a R20 registration fee that you must pay on the day of registration.
There is no specific height required, nor is there a specific waist size, but this doesn’t mean the judges will not be taking this into consideration. The final decision will be from the director’s of the fashion show.

Here are the requirements for the female models:
Female models would need to wear body fitted clothing, along with some dazzling high heels, but you cannot wear any denim jeans and keep the make-up to a minimum.

Here are the requirements for the male models:
Male models would need to wear a fitted shirt and closed shoes (no open shoes). Male model are also allowed to remove their shirt if they would like to show off their physics. You upper body as well as your lower body will be judged should you wish to show the panel your physic.

If you are chosen for the fashion show, you will then be notified either by SMS or email. You will also receive an invite to an event that is scheduled to take place on 20th September 2014 at “Motherland Coffee Company” in Cape Town, which is located in St. George’s Mall.

The “Odyssey Fashion Project” was recently on the SABC 2 show: Hectic Nine 9 for women’s month and to also do a fashion show. The outfits that was shown on Hectic Nine 9 was absolutely outstanding and some really incredible designer outfits.

I would highly recommend every aspiring model to attend the model casting as you can gain experience in the modelling industry, as well as meet other aspiring models. If you love to model and show off your figure, you should definitely apply for the fashion show!
So if you are an aspiring model and like taking on new challenges/obstacles with a positive attitude, then go for it!! Nothing stands in your way!
Let this be your time to shine!

I wish everyone who will attend the model casting the best of luck and to stay positive!
