Choose a model

On the Model step there are 40+ models: every age from 7 to 60+, many skin tones and body types, and collections for modest wear, maternity and adaptive fashion, plus kids and teens. Models that fit your product appear first under Suggested for your product; below them is More models, and pinned models come first of all. Use the filters for gender, age, ethnicity, body type or collection, or search, for example “plus-size” or “South Asian”.

Each model has about 200 poses of their own, so the poses on the next step change with the model. Suggestions follow your product, so a saree shoot starts with models who wear sarees well and a sweater shoot with a different set.
