This season, designers are throwing girls into footwear that would make any model, much less a regular fashionista, shake with fear. This season’s shoes are death-defyingly high and are causing catastrophes all over the runways at shows like Prada, Rodarte, and BCBG. But the models are expected to handle the precarious platforms with grace and professionalism. At New York Fashion Week last month, we even saw a model kick a shoe entirely off the runway and carry on unfazed. We expect our Chicago models to handle difficult situations with the same skill and poise!

While wearing heels like these is a trying task, you might be asked to perform equally difficult duties. We expect our models to come prepared to be flexible, courteous and helpful at any event or tradeshow. You should represent Ocean Model Group with your professional demeanor and positive attitude. When you are interacting with clients at an event, you are a brand ambassador for Ocean and for the company you are hired to represent.

So whether it’s a certain attire, performing product demonstrations, or just the presence of your sparkling personality that the client asks of you, always deliver and respond confidently! You’ll ensure success for yourself, your modeling agency, and your client.
