When it comes to modelling, fashion brings with it a whole world of on-trend apparel, splashed with funky key colours, prints and designs. Think of supermodels such as Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber, through to Hu Bing and David Gandy strutting it down the catwalk like a boss in statement pieces for top names in fashion like Marc Jacob, Chanel and Max Mara. But fashion modelling goes beyond a catwalk and filters into other industries too, such as advertising and marketing.
Our expert modelling agency , Models Direct, is direct with our approach. We know that fashion models are sought after where our clients are on the lookout for the next model to showcase their products. (We like to tell you how it is, that's our ethos – direct, bold and out-of-the-box).
Our team of modelling experts have in-depth wizardly knowledge that’s been acquired and nurtured through our years of experience in this industry (rolling back since 1990 in case you’re wondering!).
Models Direct want to get the word out that fashion modelling is another booming subsidiary in the modelling world that you can easily break in to. You'll be paid for glamming up and showcasing key apparel – no doubt, a perfect job that you’d love waking up and getting ready for. What’s not to love?
Regardless of age, size or ethnicity, any budding model can tap into this field making it another diverse opportunity to be a part of.
My daughter’s first shoot went really well! Communication was fantastic throughout, all staff at the venue were very helpful and patient. I look forward to her next shoot

Professionalism at its finest
It was nice to be back on a set and working alongside other professionals, the shoot today went smoothly and we were all looked after and considered.
As there was a lot of equipment and setting up to be done, there was some down time however production made sure we were aware what was going on and thanked us for our patience.
Everyone was lovely and it is always great to network with other models and hear about their experiences. Production was clear on what shots they were looking for and gave excellent direction for what was needed.
All in all, it was a great day and I am glad I got to be a part of it.

I loved the experience: agency and client staff was professional and supportive; photographer and videomaker were knowledgeable and guided us through the process step-by-step; colleagues were friendly and approachable. So it's was the best way to be eased in a new context. Before this, I had no clue what to expect, and was somewhat stressed. But as I said, everyone made me feel more comfortable and at ease. Would love to do this again!

Absolutely amazing members of staff. We had a fab day out with the family. Our daughter enjoyed her experience as it was her first photo shoot. The staff made her feel very relaxed and forgetful of any cameras being around. They had plenty of activities organised for the children while the photo shoot was happening. Then as a family we had a free pass of the area for the rest of the day. Refreshments and ice creams were available for the whole family as well. Couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thanks everyone!

My daughter recently participated in an advertising project with Model Direct, and the experience was truly wonderful. The team did an excellent job making the day great. They clearly explained what she would be doing, when she would be doing it, and made sure she felt comfortable throughout the process.
She especially enjoyed working with Julian Cohen, who played the piano during the shoot. Everyone was professional, friendly, and supportive, which helped her feel confident and excited. The communication was clear from start to finish.
Overall, Model Direct handled everything very well, and my daughter had a fantastic experience.

PLAYING A UNIVERSITY STUDENT
I was very nervous beforehand as this was my first job, but it was a very enjoyable experience. There was a lot of waiting around but the actual shoot was really fun. I had to act as a university student who had built a solar car with two other Models Direct models. The team were very helpful and nice and it was a great experience - it has definitely made me feel more confident to do further jobs. I decided to choose this agency as it gave me a wider choice of work, not just modelling, but also dancing and performing.

My first experience with Models Direct was better than I expected. The team was very friendly and the process was super seamless.
It was great to meet the other models, they were fun, professional and great to shoot with.
My first shoot was posing as a student in school accommodation. I really enjoyed the different scenes that we shot, the photographer and director gave easy instructions and helpful feedback. Even though we were doing a couple different scenes everything was very quick and easy and the team got us out in a breeze, it felt very organized.
The management team behind the scenes was also helpful, very communicative and is always willing to help.
I feel like we got a lot of great photos and can’t wait to see them.
I’m looking forward to my next experience with Model Direct as my first was so exciting.
I’m eager to see what new opportunities in the future can help hold.

I’m really happy with the follow‑up job I received through this agency after my project last month.
Their team is always professional and supportive, and it was great to see some familiar faces on set again.
The whole experience—from communication to the actual shoot—was smooth and well‑organised.
Definitely a five‑star agency I’d recommend to any model or client.
