MATES

Randa

"WINK sponsored our event by providing 2 professional models to walk alongside our models with autism for our Model MATES Fashion Event at Westfield Eastgardens. As expected the models were both elegant and beautiful; however they were also beautiful on the inside. The 2 models, Madison and Alison interacted with our models, guiding and encouraging them. They interacted and took a real interest in our models, many of whom were very nervous, especially the young ones who were 4 and 6 years old. Thank you Wink for sponsoring the event and for sending us such beautiful souls; their beauty radiated from deep within and they are a credit to your agency."

Ari and Bella both had great attitudes, got stuck in and the end product is awesome. Thanks to WINK for helping us deliver some epic pieces of content us and our client are very proud of."
