Hundreds of girls line up to be seen by agents in the hopes of starting a new or continuing a modeling career with Ford. What you wear says a lot about who you are and how you live. What you wear to a casting is the first and sometimes only impression another person will get of you. It is VERY important to &#8220;look the part.&#8221; Ideally you should appear Model-esque i.e. relaxed, confident, hip and cool.<\/p>\n<p>All of the girls who attend open calls are attractive girls. Not all of them however are models. Being a model isn&#8217;t only about &#8220;look&#8221; it&#8217;s about attitude and personality. One of the biggest mistakes girls make is showing up with loud, ultra-trendy outfits that make them appear insecure and look like they are trying too hard.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few examples of what NOT to wear:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_VJ-aj5qqalY\/ST8cYuEokiI\/AAAAAAAAAMA\/cukQ0DCHMns\/s1600-h\/wildoutfit2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5277968499311415842\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 284px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 400px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_VJ-aj5qqalY\/ST8cYuEokiI\/AAAAAAAAAMA\/cukQ0DCHMns\/s400\/wildoutfit2.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/i417.photobucket.com\/albums\/pp258\/iamlatoyas\/crazyoutfit4.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 437px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 624px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/i417.photobucket.com\/albums\/pp258\/iamlatoyas\/crazyoutfit4.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VJ-aj5qqalY\/ST8b2f8w-CI\/AAAAAAAAAL4\/08I0rKLM9AI\/s1600-h\/wildoutfit.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5277967911404763170\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 304px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VJ-aj5qqalY\/ST8b2f8w-CI\/AAAAAAAAAL4\/08I0rKLM9AI\/s320\/wildoutfit.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"http:\/\/i417.photobucket.com\/albums\/pp258\/iamlatoyas\/wildoutfitcarrie.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 300px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 454px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/i417.photobucket.com\/albums\/pp258\/iamlatoyas\/wildoutfitcarrie.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><br \/>You never want to hide behind too much makeup or accessories.
