Carole White Takes Us Inside the Modeling Industry

Carole White was a modeling agent to some well-known models, such as Christy Turlington Burns, Naomi Campbell and others. She has now come out with a new book, Have I Said Too Much?: My Life In and Out of The Model Agency, and we can’t wait to read more.

Here’s the overview from Random House:

There are model agents and there is Carole White …

Every decade in Carole White’s life has been extraordinary, from her childhood in colonial Ghana, her rebellious teenage years and own modeling career, to spending thirty years at the helm of her iconic London agency, Premier.

Christy, Naomi, Linda, Claudia, Cindy … White has shaped the careers of the most superlative names ever to grace a catwalk and was at the centre of the ’90s supermodel storm in all its glory, drama and excess.

There have been landmark campaigns, size zero debates, tantrums and triumphs. And who could forget her starring role as the much-loved ‘witch’ in award-winning reality show The Model Agency?

Carole’s got opinions and she’s not afraid to share them. Have I Said Too Much? is the frank and revealing story of the grande dame of modeling, as well as an exclusive insight into this thrilling, glamorous and chaotic industry.

On having passed on Kate Moss because she was too short, she shared with Marie Claire, “Every agent has a story like that, but you have to stand by your decisions – sometimes you’re right, sometimes you’re wrong. There’s always another girl round the corner.”

We are certain there’s a lot more learning lessons she will share, and we are looking forward to reading all of them and more.
