Supermodel Kate Moss was discovered at the airport after returning from a holiday in the Bahamas, while Naomi Campbell was scouted at a dance recital. Where’s your lucky break you ask?! Well, Max Fashion has just launched a fashion property called Max Fashion Icon 2014, in association with Cosmopolitan – a nationwide hunt for the hottest rising stars.
