American Girl Fashion Show® Model Search

Thank you for your interest in the 2014 American Girl Fashion Show® to benefit Cool Kids Campaign! Our third annual event will be held on Saturday and Sunday, April 26 - 27, 2014 at Boumi Shrine Center in White Marsh, .

• New for 2014 – All models must preregister for an audition time slot. For each of the three mall venues where we host Model Searches, the auditions are limited to 120 girls per mall: ; White Marsh Mall; and . Audition registration is on a first-come first-served basis here on the Cool Kids Campaign website. Check back again - the audition registration will open soon. • A $10 processing fee will be charged per child to audition. If your child is chosen as a model the $10 will be applied towards their minimum fundraising goal of $50. If your child is not chosen, the $10 can be applied towards the cost of a ticket to attend the show. If you are not planning to attend, then the money serves as a donation to Cool Kids Campaign. • We will select 172 girls to model in four shows – 43 models per show. • Models must fit a size 6x (Bitty Baby outfits) or size 10 (historical and Dress Like Your Doll outfits). See size chart below for measurements. • Models must be able to attend a fitting and rehearsals. • Fittings are held on Monday and Tuesday, March 24-25 at Cool Kids Campaign in Towson. • Dress rehearsals will be held April 12-13 at the Towson Marriott. Exact day and time will be determined by the show in which your model is placed. • Models may be required to supply footwear and accessories, depending on their costumes. • Models must be able to be independent from their parents for three hours (one hour before the show, and during the two-hour performance) and feel comfortable walking a runway in front of 300 people. • For the April 26-27, 2014 fashion show, parents will drop off their daughters and American Girl volunteers will help get them into their costumes and prepared for the event. • For parents and family members to watch the fashion show, including the specific show in which your model appears, they must purchase tickets. • All selected models are required to raise a minimum of $50 in pledges to support the charitable aspect of the show; that money is donated to Cool Kids Campaign. • The American Girl dolls are diverse; therefore, girls of all races and cultures are encouraged to apply to audition. • If your child is not within the range of measurements listed below, there will be an additional opportunity to model at the shows. Your American Girl can join the fun on stage as a VIP Guest Model.
