Zlin Design Week is launching a casting for models for the Fashion Show, which will take place on Friday, May 8, 2026 at the Faculty of Technology in Zlín. Do you want to be part of a unique fashion show? Now is your chance! Anyone aged 18 and over can apply, regardless of clothing size or previous experience. Applications are open until March 6, 2026, via the online form on the Zlin Design Week website.

“This year’s show is not just a fashion show for us, it’s an experience. We perceive love as a labyrinth of emotions – from initial tension, uncertain hints to authenticity and closeness. Our goal is to transfer this gradual revelation to the catwalk and create a deep impression on the audience,” explain the Fashion Show managers, Anežka Hlavatá and Kateřina Krahulíková, specifying that the fashion show will not only be a visual, but above all an emotional experience.
Who can apply for the Casting?
“We are not just looking for models in the traditional sense, but personalities,” says Anežka Hlavatá. “Our catwalk is open to everyone, regardless of size or previous experience.”
The casting is open to everyone over the age of 18. If you are represented by an agency, by submitting your application you confirm that the agency has been informed of your possible participation and agrees to it.
The Fashion Show will take place on Friday, May 8, 2026, and full-day participation in preparations, fitting and choreography rehearsals is required. Participation in the Casting and subsequent show is without entitlement to a fee and all costs associated with transportation and accommodation are covered by each participant themselves.
Selected participants are offered the opportunity to become part of the fashion show with prepared facilities throughout the day – including catering, a friendly atmosphere and access to the afterparty. In addition, they will also receive outputs in the form of high-quality photographs that can be used for personal presentation and portfolio.
Are you interested in our Fashion Show and want to be a part of it? Take your chance and register from February 6 to March 6, 2026 via a simple online form that you can find on our website. So don’t hesitate and become a part of this unique show!
