Yes, models are typically skinny, but many of them do not wear skin tight clothes. On the catwalk, models wear the most luxurious, expensive and newest designs, but it's the model's off-duty, street style that I covet most. Here are some guides and article I've been collect on my researched them around
To understand their choices you must keep in mind that they live a jet-set life with early morning calls, running around town for go-sees, late night fittings and endless hours in front of the cameras often working in stilettos. It's no wonder that when they have downtime they reach for easy, comfortable pieces that always work with other and ooze a "they didn't even try hard" attitude, smothered in style.
Hands down the model in Tokyo girl collection is always ruffles you will see color paired with cute sundresses and shorts. Japanese models often have that laid back, eclectic almost vintage, vibe going on. One thing is certain, models create a certain mystique about themselves in a way that makes us want to know more.
Top 10 list of model's secret weapons when their off-duty
1. The basic model color is black of course because it goes with everything including itself for a monochromatic look if you're not familiar with monochromatic look check here for information. but when color is introduced you will notice that it is usually white, gray, ivory, camel, denim or a small splash accent.
2. Models keep it simple. Nothing fussy like ruffles. Always clean lines, nothing busy.
3. Jeans and a white tank, simple cardigan sweater or black leather jacket.
4. No overpowering jewelry.
5. Clothes always fit. Models learn that fit, fabric, and style are key. Off the runway you rarely find a model dressed trashy because even though the model is skinny and could wear anything, a model has learned that it is far more sexy to look and feel the fabric move over their body, flowing in the wind. You may think wearing baggy clothes to cover your bottom is hiding it but it is really drawing more attention and making it stand out.
6.Vintage. If you have something from a great designer keep it and recycle it by altering it to transform it into your own style. This goes for anything you love in your closet that you haven't worn for awhile.
7. Experiment. A model takes chances by making a statement with her clothing choices. If you are standing up straight with confidence, no one will question what you're wearing.
8. Fresh Face. Makeup is natural. Concealer, mascara, gloss and go!
9. Flat boots. Perfect for over arched feet posing in heels all day long. Models tuck jeans and leggings in them or wear them with black tights and a short skirt.
10. A Large Tote. Have you ever notice how when you carry a larger bag it makes you look smaller? Plus it can carry everything needed for your next casting!
All models have a signature style based on their best feature. .. definitely a model-ly look for sure. Everyone should know what it is you love best about your body and make every outfit revolve around that, not being afraid to show it off. When you carry yourself with confidence it begs to ask the question "who are YOU?" because you vibrate at a different frequency and people can't help but notice!
Whatever else we are in life, we can still manage to look like a model if we want to.
Bonus:
Determining what to wear every day is a challenge we all face, but if we want to look like a model take their cues and invest in basic, well-fitting, key pieces that we can wear with everything. It's extremely important to stay true to our personality when finding your signature style. And whenever we walk, even if it's not on a runway, stand tall with an inner confidence and the aura of a Supermodel....we just might get a tap on our shoulder by a stranger asking us "Are you a model?" because you can see that it's not about expensive designer clothing, it's about the girl wearing a well put together, stylish look.
