100 young aspiring models have moved one step closer to
making their dreams of walking international runways for the world’s biggest
designers a reality.
The aspiring
models who showed up for the Aquafina Elite Model Look 2017 National Casting on
August 26 2017 were screened by a judging panel which included Elizabeth
Aisien, Creative Director EMLN, and 2014 EMLN winner, Victor Ndigwe.
Davidson
Obennebo, the 2016 winner of EMLN was also present at the event. The 21 year
old who went on to win the global edition of Elite Model Look spoke about his
experience as the first person of colour to win EML International while
answering questions from the audience.
According to
the Senior Brand Manager Seven-Up Bottling Company, Segun Ogunleye, “Aquafina
Premium Drinking Water has partnered with the Elite Model Look Nigeria over the
years and we are proud of career successes past winners and contestants have
been able to achieve via their participation in Elite Model Look Nigeria.”
Aquafina’s
goal is to showcase Nigerian talent in the modelling and fashion industry and offer aspiring
models the opportunity to start a career in modelling from the same launching
pad as models like Cindy Crawford, Gisele Bundchen, Mayowa Nicholas and Victor
Ndigwe.
The lucky
contestants preselected at the event will have their images sent to Paris where
20 finalists will be selected, according to Elizabeth Aisien, the Creative
Director of Aquafina EMLN.
The winners of
the Aquafina EMLN 2017 will go on to represent Nigeria at the Elite Model Look
International world finals. They also stand to win a modelling contract with
Elite Model Management Worldwide.
