I’d never done any modelling or acting prior to coming into Victoria’s Models, but I’m very much a ‘yes man’ and signing up seemed like a great opportunity to do something different and fun. Working with clients, seeing how shoots are setup and created, and meeting a bunch of new, friendly, and interesting people has been really rewarding. This year has been a great experience and I’m very much looking forward to whatever comes next.

Key Trend for Spring/Summer 15 – Denim

Victoria Schnabl — Wed, 21 Oct 2015 05:55:27 +0000

It’s a wardrobe staple that never really goes out of fashion and this season there’s a new take on denim. You’ll see plenty of lightweight chambray options including shirts, jogging pants and blazers for men and women. It’s great for a relaxed weekend look with sandals and a shoulder bag layered with whites and neutrals and you can add heels and a blazer for a night out.

Double denim is also being embraced and it’s best done with two different shades of denim and contrasting accessories to break it up.

Distressed denim jeans w/ striped tank and sandals for casual day wear. (Decjuba/Wittner in the Canberra Centre)

Add heels and a clutch for a night out. (Decjuba/Wittner/Colette in the Canberra Centre)

Denim chambray shorts with fringed clutch and trainers for a casual day look. (SEED in the Canberra Centre)

Chambray jogging pants are a practical lightweight alternative to jeans. Layer up wth white/neutral accessories. (SEED in the Canberra Centre)

The Model and the Photograph

Lori Cicchini — Fri, 21 Aug 2015 11:23:19 +0000

As a photographer, one of the most rewarding parts of my job is meeting new people who are coming into the modelling industry and watching them grow and flourish into their successes. It can, for some people, seem to be a daunting experience to first step in front of the camera and be photographed, especially if the photographer is someone you have only just met. It is without a doubt a special bond we share and in the end it’s all about confidence because you are feeling comfortable in your environment. The key to this is not only communication but also understanding what is being asked of you as a model.Photography work as a model may come in a number of ways and can be described as commercial/advertising for products and services and/or artistic concepts.The most sought after models will be the ones who are versatile with their look. So what does that mean exactly?
Let’s look at photography for fashion. There are three main types:
1. Look book – catalogue style where the model will be required to perform a number of different poses. These poses can vary depending on the garments being worn. Some styles lend themselves to be quite static, others will require flow and movement to show off the feel of the fabric and perhaps even the environment and consumer for which the designer is catering. This type of fashion photography is usually the most common to step into but by no means the easiest to master.
2. Editorial – this is usually a spread for media, whether it be for social media or print magazine the approach is the same. An editorial fashion shoot will have a story, whether it be linear or conceptual, it sets the scene for a style. The style is usually determined by the photographer or creative director from which the team draws inspiration and storyboards are formed. Editorials will require not only posing techniques but also acting, therefore it is essential for the model to understand the mood set for the shoot.
3. Campaign – this type of photography is usually a one off image, and in some cases can be a bigger effort than an editorial fashion shoot. The purpose of a campaign shoot is to produce an image which is about a feeling or message. The creative director will have a ‘tag line’ which is the focus of the shoot, the wardrobe/designer is not always the star as it is in the Look book or Editorial and in most cases can be quite conceptual. Again, depending on the brief from the client, this type of fashion photography will require posing and/or acting from the model.
The most useful research for a model is to become aware of their own bodies, features and expressions. There are fundamental guidelines with composition with the human body, but they can tend to be useless if we don’t know how to
interpret them to our own body types. Stand in front of the mirror regularly and study your form and shape, become familiar with your ‘go to’ poses and work on building a catalogue of styles so that you have numerous ways to shape your body. Study your facial expressions, and most of all study your hands. Hands can make or break an image, keep them away from your face until you become confident on how to shape them. Learn where to place them so that they are flattering rather than “posed” and look awkward.
The key to success is “research, analyze and practice what you have learnt” – the only way then is forward.

Hair directions for 15/16

Nicole Dwight — Thu, 13 Aug 2015 10:35:14 +0000

After a long and brutally cold winter it is the time to give your hair the attention it needs. Winter cold combined with our heated indoor spaces dries out our hair in similar way it does our skin. It is important to re-establish a treatment routine to replace the moisture lost in the colder months. Ask your stylist to recommend a professional treatment regime specific to your hair type. It is also best to have a trim to keep your hair in good condition.

Hair colour trends have remained the same for a couple of seasons. Despite predictions, ballyage and other lightening techniques are still the most requested by clients. Bond multipliers are allowing colourists to push boundaries and give clients previously impossible results in terms of lightening without compromising condition. The popularity of pastel colours is on the rise however it will be a short lived trend because the longevity is not there and the maintenance of such colours are expensive and time consuming.

In terms of hair cuts, the “lob” or long bob is still very popular as is the long layered haircut styled with a beach spray for a more natural look. Men are still sporting the fade and I am pleased to announce that the beard trend is slowly leaving us.
