Audition. Global Kids Fashion Week

Stage 1 It's time for you to show us
your MiniMode walk!


We're looking for kid models for our Virtual Runway Show which will be pre-filmed on the 23rd January to premiere online on the 20th February (date TBC). We’re looking for children between the ages of 3 years and 12 years. Due to Covid-19 regulations we are only looking for models in the UK so if you are from abroad, please do not enter. We do not cover travel expenses. Please make sure to read through everything carefully and if you have any questions regarding the application please contact us before completing your application!

1. Overview of the audition process

Parent/Guardian is required to create an account with us. You will then be able to create kid accounts by providing basic information about the model/child including 3 images and you can either upload a small video or share a link with us during the audition stage. Our team will go through each audition. We will then announce the shortlisted models in January.

I've created an account – what next?

Each model needs their own application. You can create this in the kid's tab on your account. Please make this as up to date as possible.

I've created my kid profile - what next?

Once you've created your kid profile, you need to apply for the show! Just creating a kid profile is not enough – without the audition, you will not be entered into the callout.
Head over to the AUDITION TAB on your account where you can apply for the show. Without going to the Audition part and submitting, we will not be able to see your account or your application.

Please make sure to press SUBMIT when you're happy with your application – otherwise we will not receive it. Your application will not be marked as complete until you get a decision from us.

2. What happens after I received a decision?

Shortlist
The first step is shortlisting, which will be announced in January. Models that have been shortlisted are not confirmed for the show yet, the final decision on models will be based on the designer sizes. Models that have been shortlisted will not need to provide any payment but will need to submit the details for their child performance licence – this will be needed ASAP. The turnaround is tight so please prepare the paperwork asap, preferably within 24 hours of being shortlisted.
Finalists
We will then be matching models to their designers and once this is completed, we will announce the finalists for the show. We're aiming to announce this ASAP, but it depends on the designers. Once this has been announced, the registration and licencing fee is due.

3. Can I submit multiple applications?

If you want to submit more than one child, you can do so under your parent account. Each child needs their own application, images and video.

4. How much is the fee?

Registration Fee
The registration fee for the show is £50 per child.
Registration for siblings
If you have more than one child accepted in the show, each additional model will have a registration fee of £25. Please note that this is only applicable for the finalists, the children who are confirmed for the show. There is no fee when applying for the show.
Please note that this is only applicable for the finalists, the children who are confirmed for the show. There is no fee when applying for the show.
Licencing Fee
Mini Mode will need to apply for a child performance licence for all children in the show. This is a £30 per child in addition to your registration fee. E.g. if you have 3 children in the show, the show fee is £100 for registration plus £90 for the licences.

5. What is the Mini Mode Experience?

It has been truly wonderful to witness the benefits and numerous opportunities off the back of Mini Mode's fashion shows. Mini Mode uses a high percentage of real kids who don't often get the chance to shine, to be seen and to show their full potential. This is just one factor that makes us stand out from the crowd. Our policy is to have kids from all walks of life who do not need to be signed by an agency to partake in our fashion shows. The Mini Mode experience is really priceless in terms of the exposure, imagery and opportunity. Mini Mode aims to create deeply positive memories for kids whilst being a platform for them to experience their dreams and grow their full potential. It may be a once in a lifetime experience that frames their future.

6. Special Dispensation

We will give assistance to parents on UK benefits through our Mini Mode scheme so that all people can continue to be able to access the fashion show.

7. Which show do I apply for?

We are still going to have two shows after editing, but in this case you just need to audition once as they will both be filmed on the same day together.

8. How and where do I attend show and rehearsals

We will not have rehearsals for this show. Everything will be done on the day.
Venue is in London and you need to be available on the 23rd January to be able to be in the show.

The show itself is Virtual, so you’ll be provided with a YouTube link that you can share far and wide to watch the show itself.

9. Statement of responsibility

Mini Mode understands that you are keen to be in the show, but we ask that you consider your financial situation before agreeing to be in the show – including accommodation, travel etc.

10. I'm having issues submitting my application – what shall I do?

If you're trying to submit on a phone, try working on a laptop or tablet as this is where the web app works best. This will be where you'll get the best experience.

If you're having issues uploading pictures, the file size may be too large – try screenshotting the image / decreasing the file size and reupload. The image limit is 8MB and 16MB for video

If you're having issues uploading your walk, once again the file size may be too large. The file limit is 16MB. (Image format must be any of the following - .JPG, .JPEG, .PNG, .png, .GIF, .gif) (Video format - 'mp4', 'MP4', 'wmv', 'AVI', 'avi', 'WMV', 'mov', 'MOV' ) Uploading images and videos may take some time to go through, so please be patient if it doesn't happen immediately, it might take a few minutes.

Once you've submitted your applications (remember – you need to send an application in for every show you want to enter) you should see it say 'complete' next to your submission, otherwise it hasn't gone through. Please check this before leaving the Web App.

Gallery Some memories of the past event

LFW is iconic. It has been recognized throughout the world for decades and has launched the careers of some the world's greatest creatives; encouraging individuality and respected global brands in the UK industry.

A plethora of UK kids brands have paved the way for the British kids market creating success stories in this rapidly growing industry. With that in mind, we thought that it was time to create a platform for kids fashion during the UK industry's renowned London Fashion Week.

Mini Mode is the creation of Amanda Rabor, creator of Isossy Children a global kids fashion brand in collaboration with a network of creatives, influencers, marketing experts, visionaries, media partners and sponsors wanting to establish a consistent platform for the kids fashion market which showcases both emerging designers and major kids brands.
