The Lions Management (The Lions Model Management, LLC) is a modeling agency based in New York City. The company was founded in 2014.
Company history
In 2014, several models quit their agencies to form The Lions including Agyness Deyn, Karen Elson, and Cameron Russell from Elite Model Management; Jessica Hart, Anne Vyalitsyna and Angela Lindvall from Women Management; and Frankie Rayder from IMG Models. The transfers were mostly due to models following their agents to the new agency.
The Lions later restructured under the leadership of new managing partners Ali Kavoussi, Louie Chaban, and Christiana Tran with Julia Kisla serving as the agency's CEO.
A few years later, The Lions opened a division in Los Angeles in 2017. The office was headed by Charlotte Reiss, formerly of Wilhelmina Models, who served as its director. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the company closed its Los Angeles branch and remains primarily based out of New York City. In 2020, the company tapped Julie O'Donnell, former director of Ford Models, to be one of its co-directors alongside Nancy Ortiz. The next year, in 2021, the agency began to shift from its primary strategy away from model management to include creative strategy and brand development. The agency was involved in producing advertising campaigns with Tamara Mellon and DHL.
Talent
In addition to primarily managing models in the fashion industry, the agency also maintains a roster of artists, musicians, athletes, and other public-facing figures. As of 2022, talent signed to the agency include:
