Altogether, miscellaneous costs and taxes reduce Jagodzinska's $233,129.65 to $89,684.50. That's still a nice chunk of change, and in no way typical among models — Jagodzinska's a face of the Gap and Calvin Klein who's been on the cover of American Vogue, remember — but she's still only holding onto a little less than 40% of what she grosses. And even though Jagodzinska is in the black, she can't actually get her $89,684.50 because Next has marked it "Unavailable." Remember, none of the clients have paid yet! If Jagodzinska had wanted that money from Next on April 23, it would have been given only as a loan, for which she'd have paid Next a financing fee up-front of 5% of the total. That's 5% of a sum from which a 20% commission and Next's other costs have already been deducted.
The contract also authorizes Next to make any deductions from its models' accounts for any reason whatsoever. At best, this removes any incentive to keep down such management costs as may be passed on to models — $650 to send some pictures to some casting directors? $100 for magazines?
This is in regards to the girls suing Next. And though Jezebel titled this article What Vogue Actually Pays Its Models, to me it's the details of the management company's behavior that should have been the focus of the article. Case in point:
Next pledges to make "diligent efforts" to collect payments owed by clients, but the contract also states that if a deadbeat client refuses to pay up, the costs of legal representation and/or debt collection will be payable by the model. And the model will still owe Next a 20% commission on whatever sum is recovered (although with uncharacteristic generosity, the agency will only charge.
That's terrible!

These are some of the Terry Richardson shot images, from the press presenation. They appear in UK Harper's Bazaar January 2011.
Irina posed nude for GQ — Irina knows it, Elite knows it, the photographer knows it, and so do the stylists and the fifteen witnesses who attended the photo shoot.
We chose one of the world’s leading photographers, known for the quality of his photos and never for any scandals, Vincent Peters. Among his portraits are names like Monica Bellucci, Eva Herzigova, Adriana Lima, Liz Hurley, Natalia Vodianova, Mariah Carey and Charlize Theron.
We have the contract, more than 15 witnesses who saw that Irina agreed to undress for the session, we have the original naked photos of Irina … What other evidence is needed? The facts, witnesses, original documents, photos … Why lie for lying?
This is in response to Irina Shayk suing GQ Spain for allegedly photoshopping her nude.
GQ Spain's response was posted on their blog (translated).
