Modelland

Back in print by popular demand! Welcome to Modelland, dahling, where an awkward, unlikely girl gets a chance at otherworldly modeling stardom in a bizarre mix of magical fashion, impossible beauty, fierce challenges, and twisted secrets.

A wildly imaginative fantasy from supermodel and world-builder Tyra Banks, infused with an insider’s view of a world few truly know.


BEAUTY IS IN THE SMIZE OF THE BEHOLDER. . . .

Today is The Day of Discovery—and if you are chosen, prepare to be swept into a mysterious mountaintop world where fashion is magical, photo shoots defy imagination, and beauty itself is decided in secret. Welcome to Modelland, dahling.

With her untamable hair, gawky body, and large forehead, Tookie De La Crème never dreamed Modelland would choose her. But someone has plans for Tookie, and before she can blink, she’s swept into the place everyone longs to be. Each year, only a chosen few become Intoxibellas, the most famous people in the world. Worshipped. Magical. For those who don’t make it . . . not every fate is fabulous.

Now, dressed in green alongside three other girls who feel as out of place as she does, Tookie is bewitched by mind-boggling posing lessons, fantastical fashion, and one beautiful distraction whose eyes keep finding hers. She glimpses a future that could be hers . . . if she survives the terrifying Thigh-High Boot Camp, spicy rivalries, and the beastly Catwalk Corridor. But beneath the glamour that covers the gore, dark rumors swirl around why Tookie and her friends were chosen. Can they survive Modelland? And the bigger question is . . . can you?
