Artists & Icons We spoke to several models about how their careers began. Jack Cope’s journey started when a friend sent his pictures to Select, a modeling agency. At the time, Jack didn’t think much of it, but to his surprise, Select signed him straight away. Within a week, he was modeling for Dsquared in a campaign and show. Jack was thrilled and thought, “God, this is amazing! I’ve only been with Select for two weeks, and this is what happened.” He loves traveling, which makes modeling even more appealing. Although Jack was an accomplished rugby player before he started modeling, he has decided to focus entirely on his career.

Finally, there’s Samuel Reeves, a 19-yearold with a unique background: he was born and raised in London and is of Tanzanian and Australian descent. Although he was frequently told from a young age that he should consider modeling, Samuel dismissed these compliments. A few months ago, a platform staff member suggested that he should pursue modeling, and Samuel decided to give it a try.

He went for a walk-in at Select, and the agency signed him right away.

Tandy’s Thoughts Tandy Anderson, Co-Founder of Select Model Management and Editor-in-Chief of this magazine, has a deep affection for Reial Club Nàutic Port de Pollença as she owns a house in Mallorca. The yacht club holds a special place in Tandy’s heart, as it was the perfect venue for her wedding to photographer, Lawrence James Thomas in 2017. The breathtaking views of the port provided an idyllic backdrop for the star-studded event. Tandy expresses her gratitude to Felipe, the manager of the yacht club at the time, who made the event even more special by closing the club to the public.

The Reial Club Nàutic Port de Pollença is also known for its incredible food, with mouth-watering dishes like lobster, filet steak and paella, which Tandy highly praises. She gives a special shoutout to the Chef for creating such memorable culinary experiences.

Mallorca has become a frequent destination for Tandy and her family, especially the area of Cala Sant Vicenc. With extensive knowledge of the island, Tandy has discovered some hidden gems. Among them is the Windsurf Restaurant, owned by Matteo and his family, which Tandy considers her home away from home. Matteo has always made Tandy and her family feel welcome and like they never left.

Another standout restaurant Tandy would like to mention is Stay, where Jesús, the head waiter, has made every visit a memorable one. With Tandy’s passion for food and travel, it’s no wonder she’s discovered these hidden treasures on the beautiful island of Mallorca.
