About

In the heart of Paris, hidden among the cobbled streets and chic boutiques, lay an exclusive agency that broke every stereotype – Midnight & Muse. Its name was whispered in hushed tones among fashion circles, not because of the elite models it represented, but due to its unique selection criteria.

Founded by Amelie Duval, a former supermodel who had graced countless runways, Midnight & Muse was no ordinary agency. Amelie believed that every individual had a story to tell, and she sought models who carried tales in their eyes and passion in their steps. She didn’t seek the typical beauty standards that were so rigidly adhered to. Instead, she looked for scars, laughter lines, freckles, tales of adversity, triumph, heartbreak, and joy. She saw potential where others saw imperfection.

Each model signed on was more than just a pretty face; they were poets, activists, scientists, parents, survivors, and dreamers. All had a passion beyond modeling which, when coupled with their unique looks, gave them a mesmerizing presence on and off the runway.

Word soon spread of the models from Midnight & Muse. They walked with a gravitas and energy that was different. Designers began to notice, and soon, they were the most sought-after models during Fashion Week. What made them stand out wasn’t just their unique looks, but the raw, unfiltered emotion they brought to each appearance. They weren’t just wearing clothes; they were telling stories.

Amelie also ensured her models were treated with respect and dignity. Contracts with designers clearly stipulated appropriate working hours, mandatory breaks, and fair pay. In a world where models often faced exploitation, Midnight & Muse became a sanctuary.

Over time, the agency expanded globally, opening branches in New York, Milan, and Tokyo. But the essence remained consistent – celebrating stories over stereotypes.

The legacy of Midnight & Muse was not just in changing how the world saw models but how models saw themselves. They were no longer just hangers for garments but ambassadors of stories, emotions, and dreams. And in doing so, the world of fashion was forever changed, one unique tale at a time.
