Models 1 is a British model agency established in 1968 in London, England. Having originally started with only three models, Models 1 became Europe's leading agency after representing some of the world's top supermodels, including Naomi Campbell, Twiggy and Yasmin Le Bon.

The BFMA aims to create a unified voice for the UK model industry. Its activities are informed by the main objective of its members which is to discover, develop and represent fashion models so as to enable them to enjoy profitable, safe and fulfilling careers. Members meet at regular intervals and maintain an on-going dialogue with clients from all sectors and with other relevant stakeholders. These include NGOs, government and regulatory bodies such as HMRC, the Home Office / UK Border, and other trade associations. These dialogues are conducted with the view to enhancing the working conditions & welfare of the models which the BFMA's members represent and the regulatory framework within which the industry operates.
