FashionGates community member Ace Models is a Greek model agency founded in September 1995 by Christina Foussiani who had previously worked as the head of Casting Department for Stefi Films Productions, Greeces largest film and commercial productions house.
Since its very first day, Ace Models Agency has become a partner for Greek fashion magazines (Elle, Marie Claire, Harders, Bazaar and Madame Figaro), film productions houses (Cinegram, Movielab, Stefi), advertising Agencies (JWT, Saatchis, Bates, Ogilvy & Mather, Euro RSCG, Publicis, Young & Rubicam, etc), leading fashion catalogues and fashion designers.
Ace Models has a vast selection of male and female models. The agency is accepting new candidates who want to become models. To qualify, a woman should be 15 years old and 172 cmt tall, and a man should be 18 years old and 1.82 cmt tall.
The agency is based in Athens, the cradle of modern civilization and buzzing "big city" with a social and commercial life that is second to very few capitals in the western world. A booming market economy, a society that is eager to adopt a leading international role after years of staying in the background, the enthusiasm that the 2004 Olympic Games are bringing to the city, along with the mostly improving infrastructure, all conspire to make Athens the perfect "headquarters" for all kinds of photography shooting and other fashion related projects.
Today, Ace is one of the largest model agencies in Greece.
