Insider Feature: The Agents and the Agencies - Faith Kates, Brunel and The Epstein Files

from The Fashion Insider · host Nakul Lax

The co-founder of Next Model Management had a 40 year relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Her name appears over 5,000 times in the DOJ files. She was sending him lists of models after his conviction. She was exchanging model photographs and physical measurements with a convicted predator. She accepted a secret multi-million dollar loan from him while concealing his involvement from the people she was negotiating with. She stepped down at the back end of 2025. Next Management cut all ties and said they knew nothing.Her co-founder was Jean-Luc Brunel. Exposed on national television in 1988 for drugging and attacking models in Paris. She went into business with him the following year. He later launched MC2 Model Management with one million dollars of Epstein’s money. A former bookkeeper testified that models were loaned to wealthy clients for up to $100,000 a night and were not paid if refused.This episode is the full story. The agents. The agencies. The network. The playbook they used on the models inside it. And why it is still happening today.Follow on Instagram: @nakullaxwww.instagram.com/nakullax Email: [email protected]
