New York, NY (1888PressRelease)
June 01, 2009 - In a world where movie stars and celebutantes are given campaigns we at Nolcha vow to give it back to the model where it belongs.
In the past year 78% of magazine covers showcased the same 20 people revolving around the newsstands like Warhol in the Silver Factory. Ad campaigns from Sketchers to Louis Vuitton hired celebs to "hock their merch" citing the "aspirational luxury" approach.
Nolcha is different. We understand it is the job of the model to mold with the brand, become the product, shape the image. And we would like to give credit where credit is due.
Nolcha.com is proud to announce the Face of Nolcha Fashion Week NYC September 2009 Competition.
Models submit Polaroid's online to the nolcha.com team in hopes of becoming the face that not only opens the runway show at fashion week, but the image on all of the press campaign material as well.
We also understand that products are bought by the public, therefore we will give the public the final vote. The model with the most votes by July 1 will be deemed the winner. Here is the criteria for entry:
1) Polaroid of face head on smile/no smile, face profile, full body.
