Q&A for How to Dress Like a Model

Yes, you can. There are different types of modeling and many models have scars, anyway.

As long as you feel comfortable and confident in what you're wearing then ignore them. If they are true friends they will appreciate the way you act, dress and feel and take into consideration your opinion and reasons for dressing the way you do.

No, you don't have to. Just wear what makes you feel comfortable and unique.

Many models wear simple or plain clothes, so you can get away with something similar. Make sure that your outfit is clean, neat, and well-put-together. If you'd like, you can add some jewelry or accessories to step it up a notch.

You can follow the same steps, but try to match your clothes to the color or pattern of your hijab!

First tell them the positives about their body shape, then if you're going shopping or something, try to push them toward something that they both like and is suitable to their body shape.

Buy yourself a Vogue or similar magazine to find what styles are current. Also look online for models, or videos of their styles. Which ones appeal to you? Once you've worked out what appeals, then you need to work out what suits your facial and body features.

If you don't have any money to spend you could try thrift stores/second hand stores. Clothes are cheaper there and you might find something vintage. You could also try upcycling your old clothes into something you like.

Everyone is pretty in their own way. Some modelling companies need a model for shoes, others need a model for hair. You can look at what you like the most about your body and look for modelling jobs that need you.

There is not a definite age, it's really up to the girl in question and her parents.

Try to give her the reasons that you want to shave your legs and have a conversation with her. Depending on your age and what she thinks, she will either let you or not. If she says no, be patient and don't ask for at least a month or so.

Yes, you can be a model no matter what size you are.

You don't need to wear heels. Wear whatever shoes make you feel comfortable and beautiful.

Buy or borrow a pair of shoes with one color that matches one of the colors in the pattern of the dress. If it's a texture problem, try to find a pair of shoes that compliments the texture of the dress. If you just want to be bold, wear a pair shoes that match the purse you're using as long as it's a solid color. If possible, pair it up with a belt that matches the shoes to tie the whole piece together.

Some of the most popular models in the 90's included Kate Moss, Linda Evangelista, Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, and Tyra Banks.

You don't have to wear bright clothes, tons of models and celebs dress in plain outfits. If you really want bright clothes, you could buy some, or trade clothes with some friends.

Of course. Not all models are tall, and scars can usually be covered up with concealer. You should look into child modeling opportunities in your area.

Yes, it is. However, charisma is a good quality for models since it can make a tremendous difference in the pose, facial expression, and final picture.

That makes you stand out in an a good way! Have fun experimenting with different styles and patterns. I am a freckled redhead, but that has never stopped me, so embrace your imperfections. The passion is really all you need!

Yes but they tend to follow very strict diets and also work out around 5-6 days a week for around 1 hour. Eat healthy because it's good for you and your skin, hair and appearance will reflect a healthy glow too.

You don't need to hide your wonderful scars with makeup. Every scar tells how beautiful you are. But if you really want to, then yes, makeup and foundation can hide your scars.

As long as you have the same account set up on every device, yes. You can connect a go-pro to your computer, or you can take it with your phone, or any device that has Instagram or if you just want to take photos for fun.

Do something that involves a little brainy work, like being a fashion designer and a bussiness woman (because you create a fashion or makeup line). And don't tell them that you're going to be a model until you have the plans for the clothing line and the like. If you do make your own company, you would be making more money too.

Include your parents as much as possible in your decisions with modeling and try to always find a compromise, as opposed to yelling at them when they won't let you do something your way. Find a happy medium and encourage them to talk to the agencies and ask all the questions they need until they are satisfied. Also, create a clothing or makeup line, and consider yourself a fashion designer or business woman. Also, if you do that, don't tell them that you're going to be a model until you have all of the clothing and stuff planned out. Use social media.

Practice your walk to change it to a different style. What models do the most is runway shows and a good walk is essential but definitely a skill you can learn and practice. Work on your walk using YouTube examples.

Absolutely not! The point is to be yourself and wear what you like. If you like her style, by all means dress like her, but it's not required.
