Entries Flood in for the Face of 2008

Wellington Square has launched its model search competition this week, with entries flooding in over the first few days, and still a couple of weeks to go for budding models to become the Face of Wellington Square 2008. The winner receives a modelling contract with AM Model Agency, a photo portfolio worth £250 and £1,000 to spend at Wellington Square Shopping Centre.

Working with TFM Radio’s promotions team, the competition invites 18-25 year old young ladies to send in a photo in the first instance. Entries will be whittled down to 30 hopefuls, who will be invited for interview, with just ten finalists going through to the big event at Wellington Square on Saturday 7^th June.

Finalists will take part in a fashion show on a catwalk set up in the central Square at Wellington Square , with three changes of outfit from the centre’s fashion retailers, hair by SuperCuts, make-up by Debenhams, and they will be interviewed by TFM’s Wayne Allen.

Wellington Square centre manager Rob Gildersleeve said: “We are looking for a model to use in all our advertising, who represents the sort of shopping centre we are, and has a fresh and exciting look, as well as a good personality. She’ll be the Face of Wellington Square for a year.”

Wayne Allen said, “We’ve had a great start to the promotion, with some excellent candidates. It’s going to very hard to choose the 30 potential finalists, never mind getting down to just one winner in the final. The standard is very high.”

If anyone is interested in taking part, entry forms are available at retailers in Wellington Square Shopping Centre, or visit www.tfmradio.com. Retailers taking part are Debenhams, River island, Marks & Spencer, New Look, Bay Trading, H&M, Officers Club, TopShop and SuperCuts.
