Market profile
How the market works in Moscow
No single casting route covers every Moscow Fashion Week activity. Applications and participation are segmented by role, so model opportunities need to be followed through agencies, brands and individual show productions rather than inferred from general event registration pages.

Before you apply
Images to have ready in Moscow
- A recent close-up with natural skin texture and simple hair.
- A full-length front view plus a clean profile.
- One simple image with movement, without heavy styling.
- A short walk clip if the casting asks for one.
Keep measurements current and use recent images. A portfolio can support an application, but it should not replace clean, neutral digitals when those are requested.
Check the current application requirements at Expomodel and Eyes Model before shooting anything specifically for them. Treat the current form as the brief: requested images, measurements and file formats can differ from one organisation to another.
