VÈLISHE Model Management — Sofia, Bulgaria
VÈLISHE Model Management is a boutique modeling agency founded in 2025 and based in Sofia, Bulgaria. We represent and develop 24 professional fashion and commercial models — women and men with a distinct presence, individual attitude, and authentic character that translates across editorial, campaign, and digital work. We are a new-generation agency built on the belief that great representation shapes careers. We work with a selective, carefully curated roster and invest in each model's long-term development — from first casting to international placement.
What Does Velishe Model Management Do?
Our talent works across 7 categories: fashion editorial, commercial advertising, catalogue, runway, beauty, lifestyle, and digital content. We connect models with leading Bulgarian and international brands, creative directors, and photographers — placing talent in campaigns that make an impact. Beyond bookings, we guide models through the industry — helping them build a professional portfolio, understand their market positioning, and navigate the demands of a modeling career with confidence and clarity.
What Are the Requirements to Become a Velishe Model?
Our vision goes beyond trends. We focus on timeless presence, individuality, and a sense of narrative within every model we work with. VÈLISHE is a statement — selective, bold, and quietly assured. We exist to shape faces, stories, and moments that leave an imprint.
We represent both women and men. Female models typically begin at a minimum height of 173 cm; male models at 183 cm. We prioritise natural, unedited portfolios and look for real character above all else. Applicants submit natural photos with no filters, editing, or makeup and are reviewed on a rolling basis.
What Is the VÈLISHE Model Academy?
The VÈLISHE Academy is our structured training programme for aspiring and signed talents who want to understand how the modeling industry truly works. The Academy covers composites and casting preparation, professional conduct on set, industry etiquette, and building a sustainable career. Enrolment is by intake — join the waitlist to be notified when the next programme opens.
