Whether she’s large or small…tall or short...young or old…there is beauty in every woman, and we will help bring that beauty to our audience.”
Once the Bonita Magazine Cover Girl Auction has concluded, the publisher will contact the winner to make all of the necessary arrangements, including a professional photo shoot. Models can be of any nationality and from anywhere around the world, but must be over 18 years of age to be featured.
