Founded in 1977, Select Model Management is globally recognized as one of the most prestigious and innovative agencies in the model and talent industry. Since its establishment, it has built an exclusive client list of the world’s leading lifestyle brands and has managed the careers of the biggest, brightest and most successful male and female models and artists.  It represents the likes of David Gandy, Irina Shayk, Jon Kortajarena, Oliver Cheshire, Michael Ward, Lucan Gillespie, Primrose Archer, Will Chalker, Marjan Jonkman, Shanelle Nyasiase, Aliet, and Amanda Murphy. Subjects covered; How will agencies survive after being forced to shut down for months?  What will the fashion shows look like this coming in September? Will modeling rates go up or down due to COVID 19? Select, now one of the largest modeling networks in the world with offices in eight cities, how does the agency give personal attention to the models when representing so many incredible models?  Tik Tok? Instagram? is there a shift taking place?  Models can earn $10,000 a day, a health care worker earns $40,000 a year? do you see a problem with this?   Influencers earn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year taking selfies while a teacher earns $44,000 per year what is wrong with this?  What kind of effect does it have on a young person who all of sudden starts earning thousands of dollars a day standing in front of a camera? or taking a selfie?  Do models truly "earn" the great amount of money they make, like other careers? Do they actually appreciate the amount of money they make? Do people truly appreciate things they don't really "earn"?   What effect does it have on a young person being rejected thousands of times about their physical appearance?
