Sensational, shocking, and intensely spirited – get ready for a no-holds-barred look behind the scenes of one of the largest and most successful model and talent management agencies in the word, Wilhelmina Models International. Jockeying between client meetings, casting calls and fashion shows, the agency's employees provide a candid glimpse of their high-stress jobs. This show examines what is involved and what it takes to be a part of the modeling world.
 
Infiltrating the modeling industry like no other television series has, "The Agency" takes a stark look at the men and women who search for, mold, scold and comfort raw, young beauties -- all in an effort to groom the world's most marketable people. The series is not just about glamour. It's about the harsh realities of a business in which millions of dollars are at stake daily, and the competition for landing high-end models and campaigns can lead to both euphoric victories and bitter defeats. 
 
Taking a rare look at client meetings, casting calls, and backstage at fashion shows, "The Agency" casts an unblinking eye on the super-high-stress jobs of the people who are completely hooked on the business of brokering beauty. It explores the complex, up-and-down relationships between the agents and their models--who are sometimes naïve, insecure, vulnerable women and men who must be parented and then delivered on time and looking fabulous to demanding clients.
 
"There´s nothing I can do with you. Your face is asymmetrical. Your eyes are too close together and your nose is off on an angle like this. You want me to keep going? I mean ... You're not a model." – Pink, Head of High End Women´s Board, Episode 1.
