Why Bielefeld
Our board is diverse: fashion, commercial and classic, women and men from 16 to over 60. If you are not sure whether you fit, apply anyway; we would rather look twice than miss a face.
Applying from Bielefeld is simple: four photos, measurements, contact details. You hear from us with a clear yes or no and, if yes, a date for a video call.

Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Bielefeld?
No. Most of our models started without experience. What matters is natural photos, honest measurements and time for castings and jobs.
02Does the application cost anything?
No. Application, admission and first polaroids are free. We earn a commission on jobs, never from you.
03How tall do I need to be?
For fashion, women from about 172 cm and men from about 184 cm. Commercial and classic have no fixed limits; the face and the presence matter more.
04Will I get a comp card?
Your comp card is generated from your board profile and available as a PDF to every client.
05From what age can I apply?
From 18 without further ado, from 16 with parental consent. There is no upper limit: classic models over 40 are in demand.
06Can I model part-time?
Part-time works well, especially for e-commerce and commercial jobs, which are usually day productions.
07Do I have to be exclusive with ROW ONE?
No. Exclusivity is an option we discuss once you have worked with us; it is never a condition for admission.
08Are there jobs in Bielefeld?
Yes. Clients in Bielefeld and in Paderborn, Osnabrück and Münster book through us; campaigns and shows also take you to Berlin, Hamburg and Munich.
