What to wear to a model casting
Clients often decide before you've reached the middle of the room. What you're wearing is part of that, and a lot of models show up dressed for a different job.

If you've ever heard that you looked "off", that usually means one of a few specific things. Most of them you can fix in the corridor before you go in.
