This week we are delighted to speak with the refreshing and inspiring Brigitte Warne. Brigitte is a successful model and entrepreneur both in Australia and internationally. When Brigitte was just 25, she saw a huge gap in the market and a lack of representation for older aged models and decided to start Silverfox MGMT - Australia’s first modelling agency representing models over the age of 30. Since 2015, Brigitte has grown the business from just 10 models to over 400 models and you’ll be able to tell from our conversation that she’s just getting started.  

In this chat we hear how Brigitte and her friend first had the idea to start Silverfox MGMT, and how they came up with the brilliant name. We get the inside scoop on the hilarious casting call they did to source their first models and how hard they had to work in their first year to convince brands that using age appropriate models was the way of the future. Brigitte was ahead of her time and she knew that if she persevered, brands would begin to see what she could and that age diversity would become the new norm - boy was she right!

Brigitte shares the wonderful and inspiring story of one of their clients, Joyce, who was their oldest model at 98 years of age, and how modelling gave her a renewed sense of purpose and brought joy to her life up until the day she passed away. 

Brigitte also opens up about her personal journey with PCOS, and how she didn’t let an incorrect diagnosis deter her from learning how to heal her hormonal health, so she could give birth to 2 beautiful babies. 

Brigitte is really a breath of fresh air and her empowering message about being #agepositive is one we truly believe in and we felt so inspired after chatting with her. We hope you love listening to this one.
