Model Application for KCFW F/W2025
Please Read Before Continuing:
Filling out this form is NOT your audition. You must also attend an in person audition. You only need to attend one audition date.
KCFW Model Auditions will be happening in-person on
Wednesday, April 16th from 5pm - 8pm
Saturday, April 19th from 10am - 2pm
Sunday, April 27th from 10am - 2pm
Location:
Hotel Kansas City
1228 Baltimore Ave, Kansas City, MO 64105
Parking is downtown, please plan accordingly. The downtown library is probably the "easiest" option, outside of valet.
You must be checked in with a model number sticker 15 minutes prior to the end of the day. Late arrivals will not be accepted.
YOU ONLY NEED TO AUDITION ONCE. Auditioning twice will slow the process and multiple auditions will be deleted.
Auditioning and/or making the roster does not guarantee that you will be booked to walk for KCFW.
You do not need to be there for the entire time frame. Your individual audition will take less than 5 minutes once you are through the line.
Please wear all black, snug fitting clothing.
Heels need to be 3+" - not boots.
We highly recommend that you complete and submit this form prior to attending. Any models missing a form submission or any contact information will not be eligible for booking and will be automatically removed from the model casting group.
Models are asked to provide accurate and reliable contact information and availability. Models should be prepared to have measurements, headshot, full-length shot, and a video of their runway walk collected during the casting.KCFW will take the photos and videos, you do not need to bring these items with you. All casting submissions will be reviewed by Kansas City Fashion Week, LLC.
RUNWAY DATES FOR KCFW ARE September 24-27, 2025.

Models waive any claim for compensation from Kansas City Fashion Week, LLC. If models and individual designers agree on compensation for the model, all compensation, commissions, agency fees, and financial liability for any required taxes, including federal, state and local wage withholding, is the responsibility of each designer, not Kansas City Fashion Week, LLC.
