Questions
Frequently asked
01Do I need experience to apply from Wigan?
Experience is not a requirement. What counts: four natural photos, correct measurements and the willingness to travel to castings and productions.
02Does the application cost anything?
Nothing. We never charge for comp cards, photos or courses; if someone does, it is not us.
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.
04What does a model earn?
Fees are agreed per job and paid after the production. We negotiate the rate, you see the figures before you accept.
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.
06Do I have to come to Frankfurt?
Only if it suits you. From Wigan the interview happens online, polaroids follow our guide, castings take place where the jobs are.
07Do I have to be exclusive with ROW ONE?
You decide. Some models are exclusive with us, others are not; both work.
08Do you also represent men?
Yes. The board has a men's division with the same categories: fashion, commercial, classic.
