In this episode, he reflects on how his early love of fashion, his first agency roles and his time working with major agencies shaped the way he came to understand models, clients and business behind the industry.  He talks about creating D1 with a clear identity, backing models who did not always fit the obvious mould and developing an eye for talent that was with instinct and market understanding. Dean also discusses diversity and representation in fashion, the changing role of casting directors, expanding D1 Model Management into New York and Los Angeles, and the responsibility agencies have when developing and supporting models.  This conversation also touches on what he believes makes a model stand out and why respect, relationships and proper management are so important in this industry.  www.businessofmodelling.co.uk   www.d1models.com    Hosted on Acast.
