Solo’s online model search features Kikomachine shirts

MANILA, Philippines -Ever dream of becoming a model but too shy and intimidated to go through all those go-see’s? This is your chance! Solo invites you to its Solo Online Model Search 2014. 

The successful modeling competition started in 2009 and, yearly, close to 100 model poster entries are submitted to Solo’s site, which allows viewers to vote for their favorite model. The 2012 grand winners — Ganiel Krishnan and Derek Espinosa — got to play out their modeling dreams with last year’s Online Model Search featuring Tonton Young’s Pupung. Past featured collections include Tony Velasquez’s Kenkoy, Larry Alcala’s Slice of Life.

Solo’s Online Model Search is ingeniously launched with its Pinoy Cartoonist Memorabilia Series as contestants are tasked to wear one item from the featured collection and model it in their photo entries. This year, it’s all about Manix Abrera’s Kikomachine. Men and women’s apparel ranging from T-shirts to collared tees and shorts feature Kikomachine’s trademark cartoons and beloved characters.

Now in its fifth year, Solo’s modeling competition started on Aug. 15 with the theme Street Life. Photo entries must include at least one of the design elements found in the design pack which contestants can download at solo.com.ph. Contestants must then log on to Facebook and upload their entries, all of which will be screened by moderators, through the Solo Online Model Search App/Tab. Entries can be submitted until Oct. 15 but voting of all approved entries will last until Oct. 27. The contest is open to Filipino citizens at least 16 years old. Contestants below 18 years old must submit a parental consent form, which they can send via e-mail. Remember to focus on creativity, photo layout and styling!

Twenty finalists (10 male and 10 female) will be chosen and invited for an interview. Solo is on the hunt for one male and one female with the most photogenic appeal and the best personality fit to represent the brand. Their partner photographers/graphic artists will receive cash prizes as well. Model grand winners will also get the privilege to do two photoshoots for Solo’s 2014 campaigns with photographer Doc Marlon.
