Models.com has always been the industry’s working platform: where images are seen, credits checked, and the people shaping fashion’s visual language are discovered.
Starting today, we’re expanding what the platform does for Pro members with two new additions: MDC Talent Watch Reports, our new data analytics tool, and Pro News, our new editorial section. Together, they give the industry a single home for both the information and the analysis behind how creative talent gets discovered, valued, and worked with.
MDC Talent Watch Reports
Built into your Pro membership, MDC Talent Watch Reports combines two complementary data sources to provide a recurring view of fashion’s creative landscape.
Drawing on Models.com’s database of verified industry professionals, Talent Watch distills rankings, bookings, casting frequency, agency mappings, and creative-team compositions into actionable industry intelligence. Need to know who’s working, who’s emerging, and who’s making headlines? It’s all there.
Talent Watch also tracks off-platform activity across Instagram, cataloguing the moves, moments, and rising names driving the industry’s conversations.
Launching with:
- Spring / Summer 2027 Menswear Cheat Sheet. Covering the latest Menswear shows in Milan and Paris.
- Couture! Covering the Paris Couture season.
Together they offer an immediate overview of the creative talent shaping the current runway cycle.
Pro News
Pro News is a new editorial section for Models.com Pro members.
Expanding Models.com’s reporting on the creative talent marketplace, Pro News covers the trends, moves, and conversations shaping the industry with in-depth analysis and insider perspectives on the people, systems, and moments defining fashion today. Updated regularly with commentary from an expanding roster of contributors, it offers a deeper understanding of the forces behind the work.
Launching with:
- Pierre A. M’Pele (PAM BOY) on Casting As Politics: The Negotiation of Beauty. The agents, casting directors, and creative directors quietly redrawing the lines of who belongs on the runway.
- Zoë Yasemin on In the Age of AI, What Is a Photograph Proving Now? How proof has migrated from inside the image to the credit block around it, and why provenance is becoming the value.
- Coming Thursday: Madeleine Rothery on Fashion’s Conversation With the Body Has Never Been More Complicated. The designers, casting directors, and image-makers building the infrastructure that co-authorship between garment and body actually requires.
More from our contributor roster will follow in the weeks ahead.
Available to Models.com Pro members from July 21.
