Congratulations to all ten of the AMAX + Nashville Fashion Week Model Search 2022 winners! The AMAX Talent + NFW Model Search has been a launchpad for successful modeling careers since its inception in 2012. In 2022, for the first time in its ten year history, ten winners were selected from hundreds of applications submitted by aspiring models of all sizes and genders, age 16+. Thirty finalists were invited to meet with AMAX model scouts at an in-person casting prior to the final selection for this coveted opportunity. All ten winners, ages 16 - 40, will receive a modeling contract and development resources from AMAX Talent, including a professional photo shoot with Jessica Amerson at Sonder Nashville.
We look forward to seeing this emerging talent on future NFW runways!
