Shirley of Hollywood is celebrating its 60th Anniversary with a “first time ever” International Model Search.
Some of the world’s most famous faces got their start modeling for Shirley: “Wild On’s” Brooke Burke, Actress and Playmate of the Year Victoria Silvstedt, ESPN’s Leeann Tweeden, and Playmate Tyran Richards are just a few.
Shirley is looking for catalog models (missy and plus size) and will be in Puerto Vallarta to present an Image Award to some lucky model.
The winning model at the Puerto Vallarta Jam will travel, all expenses paid, to the Bahamas on September 26-28 to be part of the celebration and the announcement of Shirley’s 2009 Catalog Models.
The winning model will also be a finalist in the Racey Girl International Model Search Finals with a chance to win cash, prizes, and an all-expenses paid trip to the Venetian Resort Casino in Macau as part of a Shirley of
Hollywood Fashion Show in China.
