Have you heard about Vogue’s Open Casting Call for models?
If not, I’m here to give you the inside scoop, PLUS all the details on how to view some of these amazing submissions for yourself.
Because, didn’t we all audition for America’s Next Top Model, or was it just me and my friends?
As a fashion and lifestyle blogger, I can confidently say that America’s Next Top Model was a defining show for fashion culture in America. It was a behind the scenes look on what it takes to make it in the highly competitive fashion industry. I was there. I even auditioned back in 2008 when the open casting call made a stop in my hometown of Huntsville, AL! #Iconic
Tyra Banks created a groundbreaking platform that gave aspiring models an opportunity to showcase their talents and compete for the title of America’s Next Top Model.
The show’s impact on the fashion industry was undeniable, as it introduced new and diverse models to the mainstream, challenged traditional beauty standards, and brought attention to important issues like body positivity and inclusivity.
The show also helped to elevate the careers of many notable fashion icons, such as Coco Rocha, Winnie Harlow, and Eva Marcille.

Of course this blog is about the iconic fashion publication: VOGUE. So let’s get into this open casting call taking place right now, on social media.
Vogue Magazine is one of the most iconic and influential fashion publications in the world. Since its inception, it has been at the forefront of pushing boundaries, breaking rules, and championing diversity and inclusivity in the fashion industry. Recently, Vogue has taken a major step forward by launching an open casting call, inviting models from all backgrounds to submit their photos and be considered for future editorial and advertising campaigns.
This move is a significant departure from the traditional modeling industry, which has been criticized for its lack of diversity and narrow beauty standards.
And of course, I have my pulse on the culture so I found myself in the midst, of what felt like center-stage, viewing submissions on TikTok.
Vogue’s Open Casting Call 2023
Vogue’s open casting call is a groundbreaking initiative that aims to celebrate and showcase the beauty of all individuals, regardless of their size, shape, ethnicity, gender, or background.
The call is open to everyone, from seasoned models to first-timers, and is a chance for Vogue to discover new talent and promote a more inclusive and representative vision of beauty.
I shared the casting call with some of my faves models that never actually pursued modeling, and I’m so excited to witness these open submissions happening in real-time!
Things are changing, fast. Beauty has no standard, it simply is. Beauty is being redefined, and I am so glad that the collective consciousness is waking up to honor the many layers of beauty, art, and self-expression.
In conclusion, Vogue’s open casting call is a significant step forward for the fashion industry. It is a move towards greater inclusivity, diversity, and representation, and a step away from the narrow beauty standards that have been perpetuated for far too long.
This initiative has the potential to change the way we think about beauty and modeling, and it is exciting to see Vogue leading the charge.
We can only hope that other fashion publications and brands will follow in their footsteps, and that the future of fashion will be a more inclusive and representative one.
