Next Models

This week, we meet BoF Professional member Damien Neva, social media director at Next Models Management.

As the agency looks to eradicate competition from rival agencies, Next New York Men has signed 60 new and established names to join the division, while building on the principles of diversity and equality ensures it remains commercially relevant. 

A wave of new models from the Dominican Republic are scoring major campaigns and runway gigs at fashion week. But what — or who — is really behind their unstoppable ascent?

Ross Young, head of new faces at Next Models, says being a good model agent isn’t about grades at school, but how passionate you are about the industry.
