From owning a modelling agency with her mother to being signed in London, one of SA’s finest takes the international modelling industry by storm.
In the spirit of sisters doing it for themselves, meet Tumelo Ntsewa, a 23-year-old model who, in a world that’s standing still has boarded a plane to new heights in her career. The Polokwane-born model, whose dream is to see her face on Times Square, recently signed with a London-based modelling agency.
Tumi, as she’s affectionately known, put out her intention to be signed in London in a tweet (see below) and her answer came in a contract from a London-based agency. As soon as she can travel, she’ll be jetting off on her new adventure.

Tumi is thrilled for the opportunity to model internationally, getting the call was a dream come true for Tumi, “I could not believe that it was real. I had dreamt of being signed beyond South Africa and when it happened, I just knew that our agency’s hard work was worth it,” she says refering to the local agency she runs with her mother.
Now that she has signed with Zone Models in London, she aims to walk the runaway for Gucci at Paris Fashion Week one day.
