Fresh Faces is an annual international modeling contest launched in 2010 by ModelManagement.com, an online social networking website for models, photographers, modeling agencies and other fashion industry professionals.[1] The contest showcases young fashion model entrants from over 50 countries in order to discover new talent for the fashion industry. Each year, thousands of contestants, typically between the ages of 15 and 25, compete in local contests for a chance to represent their country in the world final. Finalists are selected according to voting by the general public through social media and ModelManagement.com with the winners selected by a jury of fashion professionals.
The male and female winners of the final event, held in Barcelona, Spain, receive a modeling contract with an international modeling agency.[2] The contest is sponsored by FashionTV, model agencies, and fashion and beauty brands that have included Revlon, Calvin Klein, Levi Strauss, Diesel and Lacoste.[3]
