I once asked a makeup artist how you politely challenge when you spot them doing something they shouldn't, and he said you just have to call them on it.

I didn't ask about dirt in your mouth though. I guess you should be assertive enough to call them on that, or phone your booker and hope she will ream them out.

That's a really interesting topic, would be even worth a thread.
There is already a thread about models' quotes in the Etc's of the Modeling World ... here. Would love to have someone post more quotes there to revive that thread.

But these particular ones were good for this thread ... which is about getting into modeling ... the how to's and, in this case, if you actually want to.

I recently started working with a local agency (DC) and I'm in the process of testing. Do most models test with their own clothes? My agency gave me a list of recommended test photographers, hair/makeup stylists and wardrobe stylists. What do wardrobe stylists do--and do they by chance ever supply clothes for shoots?

sometimes. for an agency fashion test you just bring some. that's usually just when you are testing for signing. what does the agency want? are you paying? commercial or fashion?

much better to have a stylist, who definitely will want to dictate the clothes. for pics that will look good to clients. really look at the photographers' work. a good photog will know a good stylist. or vice versa.

There is a stylist thread for more info.

Are there models who wear glasses? do some models wear contacts during photoshoots?

Ali has boxes of extra comp card the agencies printed up and charged her for....their idea was if 100 is good then 300 is better and then take in the fact that they change them 3 or 4 times a year and you get a nice little profit for the agencies... just think about how many models they have.
