Educating yourself to recognizing what editorial print modeling realistically "looks" like in a top fashion magazine may be the first step to understanding the variations of the various kinds of editorial modeling and how it's different from another more common forms of "commercial" print modeling work. Editorial work in a publication is really a huge "jump-start" for a fashion model's career. It is the knowledge many strive for.

"Editorial" print modeling identifies "magazine experience" for the model where a "story" is being told without words, but rather by photographic pictures (or categories of pictures) of the model in a top fashion magazine. This type of print modeling has a very "prestigious" landmark on a model's career. Its' work includes the present fashion and beauty trends of society by showcasing designers, make-up, hairstyles, skincare, etc. as told and expressed using a pictorial story. Editorial modeling may even tell a story about all of the different facets of people's lifestyles. If you choose up any high-end fashion magazine you'll find numerous examples of editorial print work.

Some editorials in magazines are considered so prestigious since they set the standards Celebrity Influencer and trends for the current and "near future" of industry that the pictorial story is being told about. Refer back again to those magazines that are from months, years, or even decades ago. Somehow, the editorial pictures you might find from that time period have been a part of the history of fashion, beauty, or lifestyle as represented by that magazine's staff.

Who thinks of the concepts of editorial stories in those elite high fashion magazines? You will find teams of people all over the world who work for the different high-end magazines which have their input. These individuals write and create their concepts of what styles, models, designers, and trends are "IN" for almost any unknown given period of time. That makes them an essential area of the modeling industry. When glancing through those magazines you need to note that an "editorial" is not an advertising for any "specific" company, if you see one specific product being advertised with its' logo, then it's an ad...that's something different called a professional print advertisement. When it "looks" editorial, however, you see the organization name in large print...it is intended to tell a tale for that company's image of what they wish to sell to the consumer. Top quality fashion and beauty clients can place some creative, multi-page print ads into magazines that'll mimic an editorial spread. The largest difference could be the rate that the model gets taken care of carrying out a commercial, fashion ad for a top end client versus an editorial fashion spread for a magazine.

For the purposes of editorial modeling, pay close focus on how expressive, awkward, dramatic, artistic, and creative the poses of the model are versus the more refined poses you'd see in a catalogue that emphasizes selling the clothes as #1. Remember, the editorial model promotes the story and concept via editorial pictures in magazines where the main emphasis is on the story or trends. In the magazine's editorial (pictorial) spread there will be some type of mention of names of designers and the cost of garments and/or accessories which are being featured, but it is not meant to act as a dedicated advertisement.

These magazine spreads get plenty of attention. Surprisingly, even although the editorial model is Celebrity Influencer
really a strong statement in the "story", it's only unfortunate for the model that this is NOT a top paying job (maybe only a few hundred dollars). This may be among the only drawbacks of being an editorial model in the beginning. If you want the money one of the most (if you haven't saved enough money to last you through this phase), this income doesn't go very far in paying the high bills that go with living and employed in the "big city" ;.Most would expect models appearing in a famous high fashion magazine to be compensated well with money, but they're not because it's not a paid advertisement by a client. It is really a special feature created and presented by the magazine.
