The Paris Fashion week is around the corner (it is scheduled from 27th September to 5th October) and on 19th September Belgian designer Christian Wijnants will hold a street casting at his label's headquarters in Antwerp. The models selected will feature in his show on 30th September.

The designer has justified the initiative with his wish to "allow Belgian talent to be discovered as professional models."

Candidates will have to meet the classic catwalk requirements, be at least 16 years of age, at least 5 ft. 7 in. tall and wear a size 36 (8 UK) or 38 (10 UK). No appointment is needed and candidates can show up on the day at Christian Wijnants, Steenhouwersvest 36, Antwerp, Belgium, from 4 pm to 8 pm.
