The fifteenth cycle of America's Next Top Model premiered on September 8, 2010 and was the ninth season to be aired on The CW network. The promotional song for this cycle is "California Gurls" by Katy Perry. The episode titles for this cycle were based on the guest judges.
The catch-phrase for this cycle is "Are You Ready For High Fashion."
Several changes were made to the show in a bid to place greater emphasis on high fashion, including a lineup of prominent fashion industry guest judges as well as a change in prizes.
The prizes for this cycle are:
- A modeling contract with IMG Models.
- A fashion spread in Vogue Italia, and both the cover and a spread in Beauty In Vogue, and will be featured on Vogue.it.
- A US$100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics.
The following prizes have been removed:
- A modeling contract with Wilhelmina Models.
- A fashion spread and cover in Seventeen.
All three permanent judges from the previous cycle - Vogue editor-at-large André Leon Talley, photographer Nigel Barker and Tyra Banks herself - remain.
The international destinations for this cycle are Venice, Milan, Verona and Como; Italy, making this the third time the show has travelled to Italy, and the second time it has travelled to Milan, Verona and Como (Cycle 2); Rome was visited in Cycle 10.
The winner was 19-year-old Ann Ward from Dallas, Texas.
