Top Model, cycle 8 is the eight cycle of an ongoing reality television series based on Tyra Banks' America's Next Top Model that pits contestants from Poland against each other in a variety of competitions to determine who will win the title of the next Polish Top Model.
Joanna Krupa, who also serves as the lead judge, returned to host the eight cycle. Other judges included fashion designer Dawid WoliÃ
Âski, fashion show director Kasia SokoÃ
Âowska and photographer Marcin Tyszka. This is the fifth season of the show to feature male contestants.
Among the prizes for the season are a contract with Models Plus Management, an appearance on the cover of the Polish issue of Glamour, and 100,000 zÃ
Âotys (US$30,000).
This cycle introduced a completely new visual design, abandoning the previous logo based on the America's Next Top Model. In addition, this cycle introduced the Golden Ticket, which was awarded at the auditions to one participant who made the best impression on the judges. This participant skipped the boot camp stage and went straight to the Top Model house.
The international destinations this cycle were London, Moscow, Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Istanbul, Morón. The winner of this competition was 20-year-old Dawid Woskanian from Kozy.
