so I just got a two-year contract to model with BOSS Models in NYC.

it's not wilhelmina or DNA but they send their models to paris/milan pretty regularly.

I've noticed a lot of threads recently on male modeling.

I was wondering if anyone had any tips or experience when it comes to runway/editorial?

there's nothing really to teach. You can look at model poses all day and runway walks all day but what matters is what you can display naturally and what you learn from your portfolio work and any smaller runways that you do.

There will be sufficient stage instruction if its of importance. I'm assuming since you've got a 2 year contract there its your mother agency so you probably already have a place to live in ny, and thats the toughest part really.

Does anyone know how important imperfections like teeth whiteness and skin are? I don't have crooked teeth but they're definitely not white, and my skin definitely doesn't look as smooth as >>8520699

they'll tell you if they have an issue with it. Just try and get your teeth as white as possible and skin as nice as possible. There's always makeup.

well tbh I'm actually thinking like photo not runway, do you think they'd also just use photoshop?

>> No.8521601

Don't complain, don't fluctuate in weight, take care of hair/skin, keep up with current fashion trends and look through editorials to get ideas of how to pose at photoshoots.

For photoshoots:
Know your angles, try to point your face in the direction of light.

For runway:
Don't be shy, people will see you near-naked.

Actually, don't be shy, period. Worst thing for a model.

nah
model gfs are fucked in head
I'm a model, and I wont date a model girl, and nobody from my model friends would
I think it has to do with the way their brain works, like all of us males are pretty sure that we're at the very least handsome, and there's no point in deciding who is the best and the most good-looking, everyone is chill
girls however are snakes and there's constant passive aggressive shit going on between them, it's also way more competitive, like every uggo girl thinks she can model
