Runway modeling tips : Hands

[marial]

Now hands are surprisingly quite important while runway modeling.

Here's why: Say you are walking down the runway with your arms at your side. Then someone for a fashion magazine take an awesome picture of you.

Now this is a good picture! Everything looks perfect, until they look at you hands! Why? Because you, like most people, had your fingers curled in and up slightly.

So what's wrong with that you ask? You have no fingers!!!! At least in the picture it will look like you have no fingers! Like they all got chopped off!

Always remember to have your hands open with your fingers nearly totally straightened. Not totally straight (you don't want to look like a robot), but out enough to be visible.

The purpose of Runway, or Catwalk modeling, is to showcase new designs.
The model who can make the designers' clothing look absolutely fabulous, in any light, is the one who gets the most gigs...period.
