Business development manager of BMM Agnė Augutavičiūtė adds that "Since we work with more than 100 well known agencies around the world, there is no need to search for new markets, we already get requests from our current partners".
Isn't it hard to find guys who would like to start modelling career in such a small country like Lithuania where there are number of male management model agencies? "Actually, we are lucky that the only male model management agency in Lithuania First Face Model joined our company. Aistė Andrijauskaitė the First Face Model manager started her modelling career at the age of 14 at BMM. So the biggest news are that our agencies are merging and from now on they both will operate under the BMM name. Aistė will continue to help us with scouting new promising guys and BMM will plan their career in Lithuania and abroad", says Ingrida.
The fashion industry is very dynamic, new trends are observed every year, so what kind of new faces you are looking this year? "Now we are looking for models with interesting features, different races and nationalities. What in the past used to be considered "ugly" now is very trendy. Let's say a big nose, a scar, big chin, high forehead and etc. Of course, commercial models with classical features will always be needed int he market. As an agency, we are faithful to our principles. We are not only looking for outer beauties, but for us also is very important that the person would have great personality, charisma, positive attitude, ability to listed and willingness to learn. This stand not only for models, after all we all notice and sympathize with those who radiate inner energy", says BMM director.
