Koala Models Agency

What is a modeling agency?

A modeling agency acts as the go-between for a model and potential clients. Most big name brands prefer to use modeling agencies so signing with one is a safe bet. They basically act like any other employment agency by matching gigs with models while charging a commission from both the model and the client.

If you’re looking to make it as a model, Milan is the place to be. As one of the world’s biggest fashion capitals, the city has a major influence on international fashions trends. It’s home to many of the best fashion events, designers, garment manufacturers, fashion colleges, and, of course, modeling agencies. KMA is an industry heavy hitter with online offices all over the globe, and has also represented well known talents and new faces.

No matter how much (or how little!) experience you have as a model, you can find your perfect job in Koala. Just remember that modeling is not a one-size-fits-all industry and that it’s not always best to go after the biggest and most popular agencies.

The larger and more well-known agencies do have impressive track records, but smaller boutique agencies like Koala are often better for new models, as they can give you the individualized attention you need to further your career.

When Koala models agency was founded, it purported to go against the homogeneous look of the day, and strived to find diversity and talent. Fast-forward nearly 5 years, and the agency is going strong, representing big names.

GET SCOUTED: KMA wants you to submit passport-style photos, including full-length, profile and headshot as well as a profile with your measures and name, plus a “casual walk” toward and away from the camera.
