Aspiring teen models on SM ramp

MANILA, Philippines - High schooler Krystal Fermin Sevilla (inset) is one of the dozen or so aspiring teenage models being groomed by Trend Classic Models International (TCMI), a mother agency headed by Jhay Layson (managing director and stylist) and Randy Escobar (creative director), specializing in discovering and nurturing what they call “stars of tomorrow.” The two are shown below with young male models. TCMI’s official photographer is David Mariano. Since most of the young models are still in school, mini-fashion shows are scheduled on weekends, such as the one on Sunday, July 27, at the SM City Masinag, starting at 4 p.m. (For inquiries, call Layson at 0917-4650414/0947-2150110 or Escobar at 0917-8567459.)
