The Company Casting Call
Following the huge success of last year’s model-free May issue River Island have joined forces with Company Magazine once again to assist them in their search for six girls to appear in their fashion and beauty spreads.
Company Magazine, the top UK monthly magazine for young women, and High Street retailer River Island launched the first UK search in February 2009 and due to the overwhelming turn out across the UK the second Company Casting Call will launch at River Island’s Metro Centre in Newcastle on 27th January.
Young women, aged 18+, across the country can audition at The Company Casting Call for the chance to appear in the fashion or beauty pages of Company’s May issue. The issue, to be published in April, is dedicated to the body and will include features and fashion shoots designed to encourage women of all shapes and sizes to love their own figure.
“Our customers loved last year’s Company Casting Call and arrived at our stores in their hundreds; the possibility that any girl could have what it takes to appear in a glossy magazine really struck a chord. I think this year’s events will be bigger and even more fun.”
Sarah Walter, Director of Fashion Communications, River Island
“When we first launched Company Casting Call last year, we knew we were going to find some gorgeous UK women to adorn our fashion and beauty pages. We underestimated just how many stunning girls we were going to discover in the castings, and even ended up booking in extra shoots and extra pages in the magazine to show them all off! So, to all the women out there, it doesn’t matter what size you are, whether you’re an 8 or an 18, if you think you’ve got what it takes to appear in our magazine, then we want to see you at the auditions!”
Victoria White, Editor, Company magazine.
Casting calls will be held in Manchester’s River Island store in the Arndale Centre on Thursday 4th February, from 5.30pm – 7.30pm. For more information about the auditions, please check out Company's site, www.company.co.uk.
River Island’s own blog site Style Insider (http://www.styleinsider.riverisland.com/) will be posting all the pics online so that girls can see their pics after the Casting Call, aswell as featuring blogs on the strongest trends seen in Manchester and the girls with the best style.
