This is the kind of once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that has never been seen in New Zealand, until now.
THE PRIZE:
The winning applicants will win a three-year modelling contract with Red11, a portfolio shoot with Red11, a three-year modelling contract with ICON Management, $500 worth of DB Cosmetics products and will be flown to Australia for the Global Brand Shoot.

New Zealand’s new inclusive model search proudly welcomes Geegee Abernethy (she/they), as one of its ambassadors. With a rich heritage of being half New Zealand and half Thai, Geegee was one of last year’s winners of Australia’s Unsigned Model Search. Their unwavering commitment to promoting inclusivity and diversity perfectly embodies the campaign’s mission, making Geegee the ideal ambassador to take the search global. This year, the DB x Red11 Unsigned Model Search is looking to platform “real” New Zealanders over the age of 18 with a strong sense of self and compelling stories to share.
