Face Fashion Week (FFW) received a huge turn out during the first auditions that were held at the National Museum Little Theatre on Saturday.

FFW is a new fashion event scheduled to take place in November. Over 100 male and female models paraded in front of a judging panel that included modelling and fashion experts. The panel comprised South African model, Thabang Mmolotsi, Miss Botswana 2015 first princess, Peggy Grynberg, Miss Africa Botswana, Peelo Mookodi, Miss Botswana 2013 second princess, Khumo Leburu, Lizzy Maila, make-up artists, Mboko Basiami and Sadie Simanyana.

“We are trying to find modelling talent amongst young Batswana who can take part during the fashion week. As you can see, we are using professionals as our judges. We are using international standards to select models,” FFW CEO, Kesaobaka Kemolatlhe said. He said judges are scouting for catwalk and editorial models for magazine photoshoots. Only 10 models will be selected from the Gaborone auditions. The FFW team will also host auditions in Francistown, Gantsi, Kanye, Lobatse and Maun.
