Speaking at the event MARC ROBINSON, Fashion Director & Licensee Elite Model Look India said, "Today young talent, both boys and girls aspiring for a career as models in the fashion industry in India and abroad, have long lacked a proper platform to launch their careers. Without proper sustained guidance and opportunity there is a dearth of young, fresh crop of models that the fashion Industry in India so desperately is in need of. The fashion industry in India is bereft of Supermodels that once had an iconic influence on the Indian Fashion Industry. With the availability of a credible and genuine international platform like Max Elite Model Look, these young models will have access to the much needed exposure to the international Fashion scene and thus will have access to launch their careers as international Models. ”
