The hunt is on for future stars of the catwalk as the Bradford Modelsearch comes to the city for the 11th year in a row.

The Kirkgate Centre competition, organised in association with the Telegraph & Argus and DK Model Agency, will see scouts scour the streets of Bradford tomorrow, from 11am to 4pm.

They will also be in the Kirkgate Centre, searching for top new modelling talent.

Budding models can also enter by filling in the form in today's T&A and submitting a photograph before Monday, April 23.

Successful entrants will be invited onto the catwalk for heats at the Kirkgate Centre on Sunday, May 6. Finalists will be selected to return to the centre to go before the judges at the final on Sunday, May 20.

A new category this year will see the finalists put to a public vote in the T&A Readers’ Choice category. Photographs will be published in a supplement in the T&A on Friday, May 11, from which readers can select male and female winners from each age category.

Kirkgate Centre manager Catherine Riley said: “We want you to come along and get noticed, so please don’t wait to be discovered. Register with the competition this year and see if they think you’ve got what it takes.

“The judges are ready, the stage is set, it’s just waiting for you to register. Don’t put it off, fill in the entry form and just send it off, as you never know what might happen.”

Katie Holdsworth, of DK Model Agency, said this year, male models in particular were being sought.

She said: “Male modelling is a career that is on the rise. With the right mindset, you can have no trouble building a career as male model.”

The competition is divided into four age categories – four to six; seven to ten; 11 to 15 and 16 and over.

Male and female winners from each age category will receive a share of £500 in shopping vouchers. Winners may also be taken on by the DK Model Agency.

Previous winners have gone on to model for companies including DFS, Argos, Vidal Sassoon and Sports Direct.

They include Chloe Windle, seven, who has worked on a TV advert for DFS after winning the age four to six age category in 2010 and 2011.
