Walking the catwalk in chic outfits, showing off the works of great designers and catching admiring glances - is this not the limit of all the dreams of most young girls? After all, a fashion model is beauty, fashion, luxury and glamor. But is everything so easy, as seen from the outside?
Fashion model as a profession
Many people think that working as a professional model is easy and simple. However, fashion is a rather complicated profession. She includes in her duties not only walking on the catwalk. In addition, there is participation in the filming of advertisements, music videos or films.
Endless shooting for glossy magazines, social activities, trying on, shows, self-development, playing sports and constant weight control - all this is part of the responsibilities of the girls who have chosen the profession of fashion models.
The main task is to properly deliver the product that it advertises so that the manufacturer can quickly and profitably sell its product. Walking on the catwalk, the model should not show itself. She is obliged to present the thing so that buyers want to purchase it at the same second.
What are the differences between a model and a fashion model?
In fact, if we are just talking about a model, then there are no differences. As for the photo model, there is a significant difference.
A fashion model, unlike a fashion model, is not required to have standard parameters, for example, 90-60-90. Its main task is photogenicity and the ability to present oneself in a favorable perspective. Silent movie actress, so to speak.
The fashion model shows only haute couture outfits. The model also advertises everything from clothes and accessories to toothpaste.
A fashion model is a beautiful, slim, tall girl. A photo model is anyone with the right appearance for the photographer’s given task. It can even become an old man or a child.
However, both here and here such important qualities as stress resistance, discipline and hard work are required.
School of models
Despite the eternal debate about the need for model schools, they are and are quite active. Although this sometimes seems absurd, training in them can really be useful in life.
They conduct classes in choreography, which has a positive effect on posture, gait and movements. Girls are taught the right way to look after themselves, the basics of makeup and acting.
Experienced teachers convey to students the benefits of a proper lifestyle, require perseverance, discipline and self-control. But these are important qualities for any person.
In addition, novice models from just such schools, under favorable circumstances, can immediately get on the podium and compete with professional fashion models.
