NY Model Management Expands Menswear Division
NY Model Management is enhancing its menswear roster, aiming to take the division to new heights. This strategic move reflects the agency’s commitment to providing exceptional service and talent in the ever-evolving fashion landscape.
New Additions from Wilhelmina
The agency, founded 30 years ago by Heinz Holba as a sister brand to his LA Model business, has successfully recruited three notable menswear executives from Wilhelmina: Matt Trust, Gene Kogan, and Jessica Rosenberg. Their diverse expertise is expected to significantly benefit the agency’s male modeling sector.
Experienced Leadership to Drive Growth
Matt Trust and Gene Kogan previously joined Wilhelmina from DNA Models six years ago, where they directed the men’s division. Jessica Rosenberg was already part of the Wilhelmina team when they arrived, providing continuity alongside fresh leadership. Together, this trio aims to elevate NY Model’s offerings to meet the growing demands of the fashion industry.
A Poetic Homecoming for Trust
Matt Trust, who began his career at NY Models 27 years ago, expressed excitement about returning to the agency. “We have spent decades focusing on building long-lasting and profitable careers. This opportunity allows us to leverage our skills and experience within a respected agency,” he noted, highlighting the significance of this homecoming.
Commitment to Excellence
Karine Roman, vice president of NY Model, shared her enthusiasm about the new additions: “Our agency has always prioritized delivering top-notch service to both our models and clients. Bringing on Matt, Gene, and Jessica, who are recognized as one of the strongest men’s teams in the industry, is a natural step in our growth strategy.”
Expanding the Male Modeling Division
NY Model has had a dedicated male modeling division since its inception, and it continues to grow. Roman emphasized that adding these three talented agents is a fantastic opportunity to strengthen the division further and provide a nurturing environment for their agents.
Looking Ahead in Fashion
With this strategic expansion, NY Model Management aims not only to enhance its reputation but also to create a significant impact in the fashion industry. The agency remains committed to fostering talent and delivering exceptional results, positioning itself as a leader in menswear modeling.
