Top Model SA to culminate at Carnival City
The grand finale of Top Model South Africa (TMSA) will be hosted on February 18 at Carnival City's Big Top Arena.
According to Michelle Smith, the marketing manager of TMSA, the show promises loads of glitz and glamour.
The production is being managed by producer/choreographer Willie Venter, and will showcase designs by fashion designers Sun Goddess, Gerry Elsdon, Matte Nolim, Gerrit Pienaar, Michael Ferguson and Gina Maxine.
Suzette Marais, CEO of TMSA, said that apart from the opportunity to be spotted and signed by various top agencies locally and internationally, the winners (one male and one female) will also compete in London for the international title, Top Model Worldwide.
The latter immediately elevates Top Model South Africa to a global platform.
Last year’s female winner, Anri Pretorius, went on to win Top Model Worldwide, which has subsequently catapulted this high-fashion beauty into an international model.
She has since signed with Boss Models in South Africa and Base Models in London, and has featured in many prestigious modelling gigs around the globe.
The latter includes walking in one of the most celebrated fashion events in the world, London Fashion Week.
Last year’s male winner, Evan van Soest, has signed with Ice Models in South Africa, LST Models in the UK and Base Models, also in the UK.
One of Evan’s latest accolades includes a major editorial spread in Maxim magazine.
