Elite Agent Louie Chaban, On The Models He Represents
Elite’s top modeling agent Louie Chaban was asked about the type of models he signs. This is what the agent of Karen Elson and Agyness Deyn has to say:
“It’s pretty instinctual, but I think what goes a long way now is the personality in a girl. It’s really important for them to make an impression immediately. To stay in (modeling), you really have to give 300 percent. And what’s happening now is that it’s moving so fast. In the past, you might have this beautiful girl and if she was a bit green, well, I think the industry would take time to nurture her; to create this transformation. Now, a lot of times, if a girl can’t walk or can’t move in front of the camera, it’s on to the next one. Models these days almost have to come ready.”
Get that girls (and boys)? If you want to model and stay long in the industry:
1. Make an impression.
2. Work hard.
3. Always come ready.
Matti Gidilevich, another Elite agent, also believes that hardwork is very important for a model to succeed in the industry. Read his advice:
