Following the success of last year's series The Model Agent, RTÉ has launched another search for Ireland's next top model.
Aspiring models are invited to nationwide castings, from which twelve candidates will be chosen to take part in the TV show.
The prize on offer for the winner is a year's contract with IMG Models, the most successful talent management company in the world, who represent the likes of Gisele Bundchen, Heidi Klum and Naomi Campbell.
IMG model scouts Jeni Rose and David Cunningham will search the country to find girls with top modelling potential.
Jeni said of the programme: "We both felt very comfortable to associate ourselves with the show because of the respectful and sensitive treatment the young girls received and also the series highlighted the real process a young girl would follow in order to become a model."
The show will follow Jeni and David as they select the twelve final contestants who will feature in the six-week series on RTÉ Two.
For all aspiring applicants please log onto www.rte.ie/tv/themodelscouts to access an application form, casting dates (see below) and to view an exclusive video promo filmed with Jeni Rose and David Cunningham during a visit to Dublin in November 2009.
