Independent
Works with: women, men, new faces
Independent is a modeling agency based in Milan, Italy, founded in 2008. It is a member of ASSEM.
Independent in its own words
Independent is a Milan-based agency founded in 2008 by Giuseppe Ferrante. It was established with a clear aim: to select and develop talents capable of engaging with the leading brands of the fashion industry, in Italy and abroad.
How to apply to Independent
- Apply through the agency's website (see the link above): most agencies have a "become a model" page with a form or an e-mail address. Prepare 4–6 unretouched digitals and your measurements.
- Check its website or Instagram for open-call days; if none are listed, apply online.
- If you are represented by a mother agency, let it make the introduction – that is how most placements abroad start.
- Models from abroad can apply; a work permit is arranged by the agency once a placement is agreed.
- Never pay to apply. A licensed agency earns a commission on your work, nothing upfront.
Looking for an agency that can place you abroad?
Supermodels is a mother agency in Vilnius, Lithuania, working since 2001. It develops new faces and places models with agencies in Paris, Milan, London and Asia. Applying is free and commits you to nothing.
Jurgita is published by Supermodels, so this is our own agency. Other agencies' profiles are based on public sources and their own information.
