Who can apply — Requirements and chances
One of the most common questions is: “Am I even good enough?” The honest answer is: Many people underestimate their own potential. Everythinggarms Vintage consciously focuses on diversity — the vintage style demands authentic personalities, not perfect uniform looks. Nevertheless, it’s worth knowing the requirements for models in advance.
Height and Measurements — Really that important?
Classic runway agencies often have strict requirements regarding model measurements and requirements. In the vintage and boutique sector, more flexible rules apply. Anyone who has informed themselves about minimum height for modeling agencies knows: The industry is changing. More and more brands are specifically looking for curvy models or work with model agencies without minimum height requirements. Even if you haven’t fit into the classic mold so far, this casting is a serious option — especially because modeling in larger sizes is getting more space than ever before.
Experience — Do you already need a portfolio?
As a general rule: The better prepared you are, the more convincing you appear. A professional model portfolio for casting is not a must, but a clear advantage. Even if you are just starting out, you can impress with posture, presence, and a confident demeanor. Those who want to know exactly how to prepare optimally will find all the important steps in our guide to preparing for casting.
- Prefer natural makeup
- Keep hair loose or neatly styled up
- Choose neutral, body-enhancing clothing
- Flat shoes or subtle heels
- Bring photos without strong filters
- Note measurements in advance
Berlin as a fashion metropolis — The perfect setting
No other German patch offers this density of creativity, understatement, and courage to be independent. The Berlin fashion scene is internationally connected and attracts talent scouts from all over Europe. Whoever is discovered here quickly ends up in talks with model agencies in Berlin or gets recommendations further to model agencies in Hamburg, to the location Frankfurt — or even internationally to London and New York.
The Berlin Fashion Week is more than just an event — it is an ecosystem of shows, showrooms, castings, and networking. German fashion designers present their latest collections, and the audience is international. An appearance at Everythinggarms Vintage in this context means visibility in an environment that matters. For comparison: The major international runways of the Paris Fashion Week, the Milan Fashion Week, or the London Fashion Week and the New York Fashion Week all begin with exactly such regional discoveries.
“A casting is never just an application — it is your first appearance. Whoever enters the room with genuine attitude and curiosity will remain in people’s memories. Techniques can be trained. Presence is either something you have — or you consciously develop it.”
After the casting — What comes next?
Successfully booked or received positive feedback? Then the real work begins. Collaborating with a brand like Everythinggarms Vintage can be the starting point for a sustainable career.

Recognizing reputable agencies
After a successful casting, you often receive inquiries from agencies. Here, caution is advised: A reputable model agency never asks for money in advance for a shoot. If you’re unsure, you should inform yourself about the topic Model agency paying fees and specifically look for model agencies without fees. For a first overview, we recommend our list of Top 10 model agencies.
Become a model alongside your job
Not everyone starts full-time right away. Modeling as a side job is a realistic and widely common option — especially in the early stages. A boutique casting like this is ideal to gain first experiences, build your own portfolio, and test whether the fashion world is really the right path for you. Afterwards, you can specifically contact a model agency or apply for a casting at CM Models.
