Model search comes to N. Van
shopping mali at end of August

IF YOU have what it takes, includ-
ing youth, height, good skin and
facial structure, you could be
$100,000 richer and become inter-
nationally famous.

This is a notice to introduce
another model search competition,
but it is not of the standard calibre
or typical “hurry-up-and-wait™ atti-
tude often associated with these
types of events.

It does not require any entrance
fee or any money whatever. It is not
associated with a modeling school,
so no one will be offering courses to
“potential faces.” It is not associated
with a modeling conference taking
place in another city, where local
agencies do not cover the costs.

It is a professionally organized,
legitimate competition called Next
Mode! Search which is being spon-
sored by Next Model Management

in New York City.

The agency will award a
$100,000 contract to the winner, a
$30,000 contract to the second-
place winner and a $20,000 contract
to the third runner-up of the contest.
The winners will have work as
models in New York.

Next scout Bev Bolt, well-
known for discovering Naomi
Campbell and several other famous
faces, will attend. Fashion Model
Management from Milan, and
Giovanni Models from Montreal
and Toronto are also sending their
top scouts, All of these agency rep-
resentatives will be judges.

The search is being hosted by
Lizbell Model Management, a
Vancouver agency that represents
international models and works
often with Next Model Management
in New York and Miami. Liz Bell, a
well-known former model who lives
in West Vancouver, has decided to
mount the compelition on the Nonh
Shore.

The event, which takes place at
Capilano Mall on Friday and
Saturday, Aug. 26-27, will be high-
lighted by a fashion show that
promises to be one of the best the
North Shore has ever witnessed,

Well-respected Vancouver fash-
ion choreographer Tracy Pincott
will coordinate the show, and make-
up artist Anya Ellis will style the
hair and makeup. All models will be
trom Liz Bell's agency.

The contest winners will be
announced during this Back to
School fashion show, taking place
at 2 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 27, and
will also be featured in the show.

The contest is open to teenage
girls who fill out an entry form and
include a full-length photo and a
snapshot of their face. Forms can be
picked up at any Capilano Mall
store or at Lizbell Model
Management agency, 201-525
Seymour St., Vancouver.

Judging from the list of guest
designers showing fall collections
they may very wel! have something
to boast about.

High-quality fashion perfor-
mances in Vancouver are few and
far between (half a dozen per year if
- we're fortunate) so it may be worth
your while to attend this one.

It is a rare occasion that the city
sees all of its top designers includ-
ing Zonda Nellis, Catherine Regehr.

Q:Can | dryclean my
blankets ?
A: With nightime tempera-
tures on the upswing, your
blankets are one by one find-
ing their way into your closets.
Probably after being cleaned.
Most Glankets can either be
washed or drycieaned, except
for electric blankets which
should never be drycleaned.

When washed at home,
wool blankets can experience
felting shrinkage. A profes-
sional cleaner, on the other
hand, has the special equip-
ment to process wool blankets
safely, without shrinkage.

A professional cleaner can
also card and brush your bian-
kets, returning them to their
original look and feel.
