POLOKWANE – In an exciting development for the global fashion industry, Ohlotse Modise from Polokwane is poised to captivate hearts and headlines at the Colombia Fashion Kids (CFK) 2024.
This prestigious event, regarded as the premier platform for young fashion talents in Latin America, will be held in the vibrant city of Bogotá from September 25 to 29.
Modise’s participation, facilitated by the International Casting Fashion Kids (ICFK), highlights the crucial role the agency has played in creating this opportunity.
CFK 2024 is renowned for showcasing outstanding young models and innovative designers from across the globe, drawing talent from countries such as Venezuela, Africa, Peru, Canada, Colombia, Panama, the US, Brazil, and Puerto Rico.
Modise, who recently dazzled at Mini Model World 2023 in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, where she secured second place, is thrilled to step onto this global platform. Her impressive accolades, including Overall Top Model and Catwalk awards, reflect her exceptional talent and growing influence in the fashion world.
At just 12 years old, Modise has already established herself as a rising star, blending skill and dedication well beyond her years.
“I’m so excited about the chance to represent South Africa at Colombia Fashion Kids. It’s an amazing opportunity to showcase my passion for fashion and meet other young models from around the world,” she said.
Her mother and manager, Tumi, expressed the family’s excitement for this opportunity. “Ohlotse has been working hard to prepare for this significant event, and we are confident she will shine on the international stage.”
Modise’s recent triumphs, including being the only contestant to receive multiple awards at Mini Model World, underscore her extraordinary potential.
Beyond modelling, the former Miss Pre-Teen Mundial South Africa 2023 uses her platform to advocate for important causes, such as alleviating child hunger and supporting nutritional initiatives.
Her journey, which began at just five years old, is a source of pride for South Africa and the African continent as a whole.
