CALLING ALL MODELS!
Omaha Fashion Week Fall 2024 Model Call will be on June 15th 2024, at Empire Room in Omaha, Nebraska. This in-person model call will be the only opportunity to be cast in our Fall 2024 showcases. There is no need to pre-register for this open-casting model call event.
Our friends at Develop Model Management will be there to aid in the selection process. Find out all the info you need to know and get prepared for Model Call below, including important changes to our event!
Model Call will be happening in person on June 15th, in Omaha at Empire Room, starting at 1 PM. You may arrive as early as 11 am to secure your spot in line. We will be handing out numbers from 1-2 pm. If you are not in line by 2 pm, you will not receive a number and will not be eligible for casting, so don’t be late!!!
During Model Call, you will be given a number and will wait in line until it’s your turn to…
1. Get your measurements taken. Height, bust, waist, and hip + inseam for men. Men, it’s helpful if you know your inseam in advance!
2. Have your headshot and full-body shot taken by Develop Model Management
3. Walk the runway! Strut your stuff on the runway. A video will be taken for designers to review during selection.
4. Register your info. Don’t forget to register with OFW before you go. There will be QR codes throughout the process for you to scan and submit everything we need to move forward.
5. Snap a selfie. We all love good lighting, so step in front of the ring light + take your pic in front of our Develop Model Management photo wall. Share your casting experience on social using #omahafashionweek or tag us @omahafashionweek + we will repost you!

MODEL CALL FAQS
Who can attend? We welcome everyone ages 12 and up at model call!
Do I need to bring anything with me? No need to bring anything, but a positive attitude along! We will take care of everything on site. You will need a smartphone to complete your final registration. Men: it is helpful to know your inseam ahead of time.
What should I wear? Dress fashion-forward! Men and women alike should wear something form-fitting so designers can see your silhouette. Women are encouraged to wear heels at least 3 inches tall when recording their runway walk. We also suggest avoiding jewelry that will make loud noises as you walk. This is distracting to those trying to see your talent!
Do I need to wear makeup? Come as you are! Whether you want a fresh face or a full look, let your inner beauty shine.
How long does Model Call take? You will wait in line, first come first serve. Once we get started, you could be waiting an hour or more. Bring a friend to keep you company if you like!
When do I find out if I made the cut? If you are selected by one of our designers, you will be contacted by mid July. If you are not contacted, don’t worry. Hone your skills and try again next season!
