Land your next casting!








In a previous blog, “Make Up Tricks for Open Casting Call”  I discussed how less is more and how one should keep all make up bare natural. In this entry, I am going to share a 4 simple  tips on what to wear when going to a casting call.

What to wear to a casting for women?

First off, you want to be memorable when going to a casting. For those of you, who have been to a casting before, know exactly how many people that have come before you and how many people will come after you. That is very daunting, so it is essential you know what to wear to make you memorable for all the right reasons.

1.       Choose something that is complementary to your body type, such as a garment that is very fitted/tailored and shows off your best assets. In catwalk model's circumstances, this could be the legs...If you got it, flaunt it. Use your best judgement in deciding what is tacky and what is complimentary. Choose one or the other, top or bottom. 
     
      Many people say that black is a good colour to choose, but well known and reputable fashion designer Michael Costello believes that a splash of colour that suits your skin tone and will make you “pop” and give you that extra edge. Try wearing colour, unless you a requested to wear black.

2.       The Higher the heel, the better, especially when the casting is for a designer, they tend to prefer the highest of high heels. Not only do heels elongate your legs but guaranteed to give you more confidence when walking in.


3.     Accessories should be kept to a minimum as they can detract from the models body or face. Accessories can be memorable. We want the face and body to be memorable.

4.       Keep hair clean and away from the face. 
       A simple bun is perfect depending on the casting, although loose hair works well when clean and kept out of the face.
