Hi, this is Cristina on exploremodeling.com. I want to talk to you a little bit about a model shoe bag. This is basically my model shoe bag right here. When you go to a photo shot, it is important that you have different types of shoes. Not always will they have shoes for you because they’re very difficult and not impossible to return and they can be expensive. So they expect a model to bring shoes on her own. So in that case, you need to be prepared. So they’re going to be a bunch of different styles that you need.
First of all what I’m wearing, boots. You’re going to need some basic tall boots. Here’s another pair, you really only need one, but after years or modeling, I have a few. Heels, you definitely need heels. These are my really tall heels, just in case you get some pants that are too long for me, so that’s kind of like a hidden trick if you’re a little shorter, it’s important to have heels, that way the pants don’t have to be hemmed. Then also, some basic heels. Black is always a great color, it goes with just about anything. You want to stick to neutral colors because they kind of blend in, nothing too crazy. It’s not necessary to have in a shoe bag.
Silver is another great color for any kind of different dress, to dress up something like a formal business suit or even an evening gown. Simple boots, boots that you can wear with shoes, also with the heel. I always get everything with heel because I’m a little shorter, it gives me a couple more inches, so those pant legs aren’t too long.
So basically, in your shoe bag you’re going to want to have at least 10 pairs of shoes. You’re going to carry it in a case like this. You can minimize the amount of shoes that you bring to a shot by asking out the photographer or your agency what types of clothes you’re going to be modeling and whether they’re going to have shoes for you. Most likely, they are not. Most of my shots, they used my own shoes.
