Australia's Next Top Model Season 6 Full Episode Guide
The LIVE FINALE brings back all 16 girls as the top three battle it out to be Australia’s Next Top Model and for the first time in ANTM history, the audience’s vote will determine the winner.
The final three face their biggest challenge so far. It’s time to find out who is ready to be a professional model. It will decide which girl eventually, as winner, will make the cover of Harper’s Bazaar.
The top four girls are literally lost in translation in Tokyo, where they’re tested by modelling a wide range of fashion, from traditional kimonos to avant garde ‘naughty school girl’ street wear.
In a week of high end fashion the girls earn their blisters in a punishing public parade through city streets, pose in designer labels on a luxury yacht, and dangle from a silvery vine in order to win a national advertising campaign.
The theme might be lingerie but the week will test the girls both physically and mentally. First Charlotte, Alex and Josh lead lessons in yoga, gym and tap dancing. Sophie realises her ‘guns’ are no match for Alex’s toned biceps but its Kathryn who really needs to work out more for her stamina. Jess takes to the downward dog at Charlotte’s yoga lesson and Amanda and Kelsey get an ‘A’ for effort from Josh but an ‘F’ for fail for their tap ability.
At the halfway mark in the competition the girls audition for their first TV commercial with Telstra. But first, photographer and judge Jez Smith and casting director Nicola Koke give the girls a lesson about their faces. They’re taught the secrets of making the most of their best and worst features and how best to express emotion at photo shoots. The lesson will be invaluable for the week ahead.
The girls take their first trip away, and their first go sees with Melbourne's top fashion designers. They are then challenged in a national street wear campaign and shock elimination.
This week's swimwear theme tests the girls physically and mentally, as they're left with no where to hide at a runway show and on a freezing cold photo shoot.
The girls learn that becoming a model is not just about having a makeover, but how they cope with and embrace their transformations, and how they reveal their true selves to the camera.
Denim is the theme, as the girls discover what it takes to be a model. But its all through trial and error, as photo shoots reach new heights and a Channel V challenge leaves the girls tongue tied.
Sixteen new model-hopefuls arrive at Australian Fashion Week to meet their host, Sarah Murdoch. Sarah announces their first challenge and reveals there will be five eliminations rather than one. They are then introduced to their style mentor, Josh Flinn.
