After his modeling career, Irvin became a therapist, working with patients for nearly 25 years.
The new division led by Taylor Hendrich includes talents such as Cameron Dallas, AJ Mitchell and Francisco Lachowski.
Friends of the late model started a GoFundMe effort to finance a burial and travel expenses for his family from South Korea.
Modeling agencies attribute delays to slow payments from clients.
The 52-year-old agency is also suing yet another model for going over to younger rival The Society.
The modeling agency tapped Matthew Trust and Gene Kogan from DNA Models to co-direct its men’s board.
The division acts like a creative agency within Wilhelmina to focus on content creation for brands’ social media needs.
The model and Nomad Mgmt, the modeling agency she co-founded, are being sued by rival agency for allegedly stealing trade secrets.
Wilhelmina’s newest model celebrated NYFW along with Rich the Kid, and Clara McGregor.
Wilhelmina’s Wackermann offered Pignatelli the opportunity to form a coalition with agency leaders to see what can be done, and said Pignatelli wasn’t interested.
Federico Pignatelli has been outspoken about late payments to models, creating safe working conditions and educating models about contracts and visas.
The 28-year-old Australian model had been represented by Wilhelmina.
She was previously represented by One Model Management in New York.
“I’m kind of still shocked that I get invited,” said singer Betty Who at the talent agency’s Monday night party.
The news comes after an eventful Paris Fashion Week for the rapper.
