Pixie Lott Signs to Select Models

Pixie Lott has signed with Select Models Management. The singer says she's thrilled to be working with such a prestigious agency because fashion has always played such an important role in her life.

"I've always loved experimenting with different looks and styles through work - it's one of the perks of the job! I've always been surrounded by clothes, and I love fashion and accessorising. I've learned a lot about what works and what doesn't, which has helped to build my confidence and interest in fashion. Music and fashion go together well for me as they are both very expressive. I was asked to design a range for Lipsy, which was a great way to experiment more, and now I've got the opportunity to immerse myself in fashion at another level which is really exciting. Being with Select is like getting my first real fashion job after an apprenticeship!" said the 20-year-old beauty, who has her own clothing range with British high street store Lipsy.

Legendary model scout Tandy Anderson, of Select Model Management, told vogue.co.uk, "Pixie is stunning. She has presence, style, an infectious personality, and has already caught the eye of various designers and photographers, from Dolce & Gabbana to Ellen Von Unwerth. She's a talented and successful musician and we are confident that as a model, she can enjoy similar success."

Agyness Deyn Returns to Select Models

Agyness Deyn is returning to Select Model Management from Models 1.

The British model, who shot to fame as the face of Burberry and became a Vogue cover star after signing for Select in 2002 before leaving them for Models 1, decided to return to the agency because they are "a safe pair of hands."

"Select were the agency who launched my career and I feel in very safe hands with them. It feels right to be here - it's like coming home."

Select Women's founder and director Chrissie Castagnetti added, "We're delighted that Agyness is back under our guidance. There are not enough British models showcased in fashion right now and whilst we're proud of all our girls, we have always had a passion for home grown talent and Agyness embodies that. It's great to be working with her again."

However, while she has become one of Britain's most successful models, Agyness - real name Laura Hollins - insists she has no interest in the industry that made her name and won't pursue a catwalk career forever: "You know, even though I'm in fashion, I don't, like, do fashion. Fashion isn't me, even though I work in it. It's just materialistic stuff. I just want to do whatever makes me happy."
