What To Expect When Catwalking
What are the expectations for
a career as a model?
Becoming a model is the
dream of every young girl or
boy who craves fashion,
designer clothes, glamour and
being center stage
If you are determined to
pursue a professional
modelling career, and you
feel that you have what it
takes, there are a few key
things to keep in mind when
you decide to take that crucial
step onto the catwalk.
Time and Dedication
Building your modeling career
and portfolio takes time,
effort and dedication. A
model must be strong-minded
and resilient to navigate the
chaotic waters of the fashion
industry. Confidence and a
strong-will are the best
weapons of self defense in
this high-paced, ever evolving
and fiercely competitive
modeling world.
Professional attitude
If you want a successful
modeling career, being
professional is one of the
most important things when
working on a photo shoot.
However, a fashion shoot
consists more than just of a
series of poses. You have to
be prepared to withstand long
hours with fashion designers
or in a photo studio, while
keeping a positive and helpful
attitude. Nobody wants to
work with a model who makes
the job more difficult with
negativity or ego.
Where In The World Am I?
While being a model and
having a modeling career has
its rewards, one of the pitfalls
of the industry is its nomadic
quality; a model must be
willing to move around . This often
results in the feeling of
loneliness and the feeling of
being out of touch with ones
family the more the success the more the feelings of loneliness.
Enjoy The Ride
If you want to succeed in the
modelling business you have
to put your heart and mind
into it. However, keep in mind
that the professional cycle of a
model is extremely short
lived. So enjoy this exclusive
and extraordinary race by
living it passionately, but don’t
forget to take pleasure on
what comes next after you’ve
cross the finish line.
