Casting Special The casting special follows the series' open calls in five cities Dallas, Chicago, Miami, Los Angeles and New York, where models from around the country auditioned for the chance to be on the show. The top 35 applicants were flown to New York to meet with the series' hosts and representatives from New York Model Management. Cameras follow as the models completed a series of challenges testing their runway walk, posing in a bathing suit and posing for photos with a partner. During the special, the finalists are pared down to the final 12 who were ultimately selected for a spot on the show. Meanwhile, three men and three women were placed online in November on www.BravoTV.com, where viewers were able to choose the final two models to compete in the series.
