Top Model is not a beauty pageant and is proud of its model industry and fashion roots. Full training is given to all finalists and all of the top prizes and opportunities for the finalists and award winners are focused on the fashion, beauty and model industries. The finalist selections are decided by industry experts, not by public voting, with top designers and brands from around the world participating in professionally produced show finals.
