ROW ONE accepts applications from Mönchengladbach and the surrounding area free of charge: four natural photos, your measurements and contact details are enough. You hear from us either way, and we meet by video call or at a casting nearby. No fees, no courses, jobs in fashion, commercial, e-commerce and shows.
Why Mönchengladbach
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.
Mönchengladbach is 198 kilometres from our Frankfurt office, reachable by train or car in under two hours. The first conversation happens by video call; castings and polaroids are done in the region or in Frankfurt, depending on what is easier for you.

Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Mönchengladbach?
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?
Guide values: women 172 to 181 cm, men 184 to 192 cm for fashion. For commercial and e-commerce we book outside these ranges as well.
04Do I have to come to Frankfurt?
Not for the application. The first conversation is a video call; castings happen in the region or in Frankfurt, reachable by train or car in under two hours.
05Do 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.
06Can I apply at 30, 40 or 50?
Absolutely. Clients book faces of all ages, and the classic category is one of our busiest.
07Will I get a comp card?
Your comp card is generated from your board profile and available as a PDF to every client.
08What about my photos and data?
Your data stays with us and is deleted after the process if we do not work together. Nothing is shared without your agreement.
