About The Models
The Models exists to redefine what a modelling agency should be.
Founded in Australia in January 2018 by Rebecca Lawrence and Letitia Fitzpatrick, The Models was built on a simple belief: a great agency exists to represent its talent, not profit from it.
With more than 45 years of combined experience across modelling and talent management, we understand the industry from both sides. We've walked in our models' shoes, worked with the clients they aspire to book and built an agency that reflects the kind of representation we always believed should exist.
Everything we do is guided by one philosophy:
By the models. For the models. With the models.
What Makes Us Different
No upfront representation fees
We believe representation should be earned through talent and potential, not purchased.
No mandatory workshops
We never require aspiring models to pay for workshops or training before joining our agency.
Transparent 20% commission
We operate under a strict Client Guarantee. Clients pay the industry-standard 20% agency commission and nothing more. The negotiated model fee always belongs to the model.
Real career development
There is no substitute for real experience. We provide guidance, mentorship and ongoing support while helping our models develop through genuine industry opportunities.
People over numbers
We proudly became one of the first modelling agencies in the world to remove model measurements from our website, choosing to celebrate individuality over statistics.
At The Models, representation is built on honesty, transparency and partnership. We believe the strongest careers are created through open communication, genuine advocacy and long-term relationships.
Our role extends beyond securing bookings. We guide, mentor and champion our talent while connecting them with meaningful opportunities across fashion, commercial, advertising, runway and creative industries. Every decision we make is centred around helping our models build sustainable, rewarding careers.
We don't believe aspiring models should have to purchase their place in the industry. Instead, we invest in people, providing personalised guidance, honest advice and opportunities that allow talent to grow naturally.
Our commitment to fairness extends beyond our own agency. We are proud supporters of The Model Alliance New York and its mission to improve fairness, health, safety and professional standards throughout the global modelling industry.
We don't measure success by the number of models we represent.
We measure it by the careers we help build.
Because at our core, we're more than a modelling agency.
We're advocates. We're collaborators. We're redefining what representation looks like..one career at a time.
An agency run by models. Built for models. Working with models. Always.
