So I have decided to start a competition on models of colour, which will be a great way to diversify these competitions and I hope they bring a good/new angle.

 

 

RULES:

You can nominate models who have these requirements:

- The model must be visibly a model of colour or of ancestry of colour (ie one parent) but cannot be of exclusive European descent.  Basically non-Caucasian models. 

- The model must have walked a “Top” show in her time In any of the big 4 fashion weeks but can otherwise be from any era. Models who appeared in Sports Illustrated can also be included, given its large platform. 


PROCESS

- There will be an initial 100 (200 if people nominate lots, which would be great) spots, where models will be ranked on: face and body (debating whether to add walk and charisma but I can’t work out how to do videos and for the latter people would just go for the most famous). The top half will then go into straightforward knockout rounds.

What about models from South America?  Very few of the nominations interest me. 

Sure as long as they’re not essentially fully Caucasian background (So Gisele, Cintia Alessandra no but Caroline Ribeiro, Emmanuela de Paula, Adriana Lima, Juliana Imai, Raica Oliveira yes)
