Tips & Prep
Wardrobe changes: Bring 2–3 looks. Flow: polished → casual → statement. Keep a consistent color story across changes.
Fit & comfort: Choose pieces that fit well and move easily; avoid items you’ll fuss with.
Textures & layers: Knit, linen, denim, suiting, chiffon, lace—mix textures for depth. Layer with cardigans, blazers, or light coats.
Logos & tiny patterns: Skip big logos; micro-stripes can moiré on camera. Medium-scale prints are safest.
Prep kit: Steam/iron, lint roller, backup socks, hair brush/comb, blotting papers, clear lip balm, safety pins, fashion tape.
Weather plan: Seasonal outerwear that matches your palette. Heel covers for grass; clear umbrellas for rain.
Bring What Tells Your Story
Instruments, sports gear or jersey, letterman jacket, favorite book, sketchbook/camera, graduation stole/tassel, hobby items—anything that says “you.” These make natural poses and authentic moments.
