Top Austin Model is Austin's premier annual model competition for Austin-based talent. Top Austin Model was created by ButterFly Entertainment in 2011 and exclusively features local talent and businesses to serve as a platform for creative fashion professionals in Austin, Texas.

The 5th Annual Top Austin Model Kick-Off & Casting took place at Whole Foods Market Global Headquarters on March 1 with over 50 models trying out for one of the coveted spots as a Top Austin Model contestant.

In addition to the casting portion of the evening, guests were given a sneak peek of wardrobe to featured throughout the competition styled by Heartshaped from local brands LaLa, SixChel, and Whole Body on our Top Austin Model All Stars, former contestants with continued success in the Austin fashion industry.
