Frank Casey is calling all young Zoolanders out there!


Frank Casey Formal Suit Hire is approaching ball season in a fresh, unique way this year by kicking off a national male model search.

To celebrate the launch of his new brand, Franky by Frank Casey, the king of gentry himself is scouting his teenage customers to find the perfect guy to become the new suit model and face of his school ball range.

"Introducing Franky and the competition is a chance for us bring back the fun of dressing up in classic style," says Frank Casey, Founder and Director of Frank Casey Formal Suit Hire. "These days there are very few opportunities for young people to dress in formal wear so we wanted to find a way to get young guys excited about putting on a suit"

16 - 20 year olds guys are encouraged to enter the New Face of Franky competition when they go into a Frank Casey store to book their school ball suit.

The team at each shop will take a photo of the willing participants while they are dressed in their Frank Casey gear and upload it to the official Franky Facebook page where members of the public can vote for their favourite every week.

At the end of ball season each of the finalists will be judged by Frank Casey who will choose one to become the New Face of Franky.

Frank Casey Formal Suit Hire opened in 1987, making it one of New Zealand's oldest and most respected suit hire establishments. Over the years his loyal customers have included some very well known All Blacks players and even a gold medallist rower.

"We know suits and we know them well. The guys come to us because they trust that they will leave our stores with a great looking suit booked for their big important night," says Casey.

Frank Casey has a large selection of suits, shirts, ties and accessories to choose from. Whether you want to suit up like James Bond in a slick black tux, stand out in a colour, go old school in pin stripes or step out in the latest international trend, Frank Casey has options for all.

So if you think you are the next Zoolander, strut down to your nearest Frank Casey store, hire your school ball suit and you could be in the running to be the New Face of Franky.
