One of the biggest sources of work for those looking to make a career in modelling is to model clothing for catalogues and editorial shoots for magazines. Although catwalk work is out there it is very hard to make a full time career out of this and many models simply burn out if they try to do so. But if you model clothing using one of the UK model agencies featured here you will have a career that will see you through all stages of your life. You can model many types of clothing from lingerie to specialist professional uniforms. The skills are the same - the ability to ‘talk’ to the camera and make your mark. If you model clothing you are not going to find yourself on the scrapheap when you hit your 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s and even 70s - many UK model agencies are on the look out for clothing models of all ages as catalogues and editorial features are no longer just about the younger market.
Lingerie modelling is a popular choice for younger models and there are many catalogues out there that are looking for models with a commercial look. Being represented by UK model agencies is a good way to get noticed; they will assess how well they think you will do if you model a particular sort of clothing such as lingerie where good skin tone is important to set off the delicate fabrics used in lingerie.
Another popular source of work for UK models is swimwear modelling and this works for models of all genders and sizes from petite to plus size. Although this used to be seasonal you can now pick up swimwear modelling all year round and there are model agencies that specialise in this form of modelling.
Modelling high fashion and couture is every would-be models dream but not many models get to realise this. If you do get in to high fashion and couture modelling you will be on the go all the time following the fashion weeks from country to country and living a very hectic and tiring life. The rewards are good but this is a very specialist market; there are, however, model agencies out there looking to spot the next high fashion and couture model.
For models with a good commercial look that can adapt to any style of clothes there is plenty of work to be had in catalogue modelling. This is a good source of income and suits models who do not want the cut and thrust of the high fashion runway. Catalogue modelling can be for the big well known brands or for more specialist lines. The most important attribute for a catalogue model is to be able to wear any look and carry it off.
