It is an honor to be invited in one of the largest Fashion Group. Eventhough I am scheduled to lecture on the 25th, Me, Dolce and Bearly managed to pull it out. My connection wasnt so good since we have a supertyphoon Megi(International name)/Juan(local name) so i experienced a chat log. There was one question thrown at me by Heydon which I fail to answer. I only knew she asked question when I read the scripts. I am attaching the chat log here for everyone. Enjoy Reading
[18:02] Monica Balut: Like we talked about last week, tonight's workshop will focus on store modeling.
[18:02] Cari Teardrop: Hello everyone ㋡
[18:02] Caffinelover Selona: Hi Seree
[18:02] Edna Wilkinson: hello everyone :)
[18:02] Monica Balut: I have to apologize. There was a bit of a miscommuniction about this. At the last minute last week we decided to let Perla go next week and put this workshop for this week. Dolce wasn't here so I confirmed with her verbally.
[18:02] Monica Balut: Later, she asked me who was helping and I quickly sent her my notes from last week. Unfortunately, I had not changed the dates, so Dolce went the whole week thinking she had another week.
[18:02] Monica Balut: She tried to pull something together in about an hour. If it ends up being not as organized as possible, you can blame me.
[18:02] Monica Balut: But i'm sure there are many here who have a lot to add on this topic so in typical Model's Workshop fashion, we can help each other out.
[18:02] Monica Balut: I can't be much of a help. As i said last week, I've never, ever, done store modeling. It' not that i don't think it's important. It just doesn't fit my personality. I just can't stand around doing nothing for that long. LOL
[18:03] Monica Balut: So I'll turn this over to Dolce & company and get out of the way.
[18:03] Chickie Ashbourne: (((((((APPLAUSE)))))))

[18:16] Gabe Bookmite: Modeling in a store as a leaving breathing dolly?
[18:16] Docseree Mistwalker: In store Modeling entails modeling for a designer line inside their store
[18:16] Docseree Mistwalker: right gabe
[18:16] Docseree Mistwalker: just like live modeling
[18:17] Docseree Mistwalker: but live models are expected to be not AFK

[18:22] Perla Rae: sot it was a bonus
[18:23] Docseree Mistwalker: bec you have to join a contest before u get hired to model
[18:23] Caffinelover Selona: Jcny i think it was 20L or something like that hour but you can work up to as much as you want during the week

[18:24] Docseree Mistwalker shouts: Beningborough pays 20L/hr
[18:24] Caffinelover Selona: oh well it has been a long time since i did jcny
[18:24] Perla Rae: With the amount of clothes that DMG gives each model it averages out to good pay..and you get paid per hour..i cant remember how much it was an hour
[18:24] Docseree Mistwalker: yes it depends on the timeclock setting
[18:24] Dolce Enderfield: MLC pays L$45 for regular and top models get...like L$80 or L$85.

[18:33] Dolce Enderfield: Alright, so most of you know me...
[18:33] Dolce Enderfield shouts: Alright, so most of you know me...
[18:33] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: My pleasure :}
[18:33] Dolce Enderfield: I'm Dolce Enderfield...CEO of DEJAVOGUE and also the general manager at Mohna Lisa Couture.
[18:34] Dolce Enderfield: Most of you also know I'm NOT normally a model...I just manage them and all that sort of fun stuff.
[18:34] Monica Balut: Is that like herding cats?
[18:34] Myown Destiny: :)
[18:34] Dolce Enderfield: I have modeled, as a mannequin in the past...last year, for Kastle Rock Couture, before the designer decided to not have models in the store (not sure if I want to boast about that.... o.O )
[18:35] Pepper Aura: hehehe
[18:35] Dolce Enderfield: Hahaha, well, because most of the people here tonight are models, I won't say yes or no to that, Monica.
[18:35] Dolce Enderfield: I want to live past today.
[18:35] Dolce Enderfield: So Seree talked to you a bit about being a store model and a few of the perks and rules...
[18:35] Dolce Enderfield shouts: So Seree talked to you a bit about being a store model and a few of the perks and rules...
[18:35] Docseree Mistwalker: :)
[18:36] Dolce Enderfield: Now I'll further elaborate on that.
[18:36] Dolce Enderfield: There are, in general, 3 types of store modeling positions.
[18:36] Dolce Enderfield: The first one, and the easiest one, in my opinion...and great for newer models wanting to get a feel of the atmosphere and such, is mannequin modeling.
[18:37] Dolce Enderfield: It's simple in the fact that you put on the clothes you are going to model, do some appropriate styling, and hop on a pose stand.
[18:37] Docseree Mistwalker: yeah sorry forgot to mention that I modeled as mannequin for Sizzle fashion poses... sorry i need to give Lorra Undercroft some credit:)
[18:38] Dolce Enderfield: Mannequins, as the term says, means you do not interact with the customers..
[18:38] Heydon Milter: ㋡
[18:38] Heydon Milter: I have too Seree.
[18:38] Monica Balut: Is that the type where you could go AFK?
[18:38] Bronze Restful: everyone seems to
[18:38] Dolce Enderfield: You are basically a doll there to model the clothes or jewelry...whatever it is you are there to model.
[18:38] Dolce Enderfield: It is also the job where you can yes, go AFK.
[18:38] Dolce Enderfield shouts: It is also the job where you can yes, go AFK.
[18:39] Docseree Mistwalker: true
[18:39] Monica Balut: mmm could do that while I'm sleeping
[18:39] Dolce Enderfield: A lot of people do that, Monica.
[18:39] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Many do or when they are at RL work.
[18:39] Bronze Restful: anyone can just sit on a pose and walk away
[18:39] Monica Balut: Interesting
[18:40] Docseree Mistwalker: or sleep in store and earn
[18:40] Dolce Enderfield: Depending on where you work, mannequin modeling generally pays less than live modeling, because of the simplicity and also no work involved.
[18:40] Monica Balut: Good way to earn some easy money
[18:40] Caffinelover Selona: not were i do it at, because a blue box pops up for you to push the colors
[18:40] Dolce Enderfield: The next and more popular type of store modeling is Live Modeling.
[18:40] Caffinelover Selona: so you can't be AFK for long
[18:40] Heydon Milter: just dont get caught
[18:40] Dolce Enderfield: Live modeling means you generally prepare for it the same as being a mannequin, but you do not go afk and you do interact with the guests in the store.
[18:41] Dolce Enderfield: Your duties as a live model can be as simple as greeting guests when they enter the store...and that's it...to full blown customer service as well.
[18:41] Docseree Mistwalker: nods
[18:42] Dolce Enderfield: If you are interested in being a live model, I personally recommend being proficient not only in modeling, but also customer service...have good people skills.
[18:42] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Caffine just depends on what the store owners want from their models.
[18:42] Docseree Mistwalker: yes you have to know where the stuffs are and the new releases
[18:42] Maureen Gabardini: sorry guys gotta go...business
[18:42] Docseree Mistwalker: memorize them
[18:42] Maureen Gabardini: Bye all
[18:43] Docseree Mistwalker: bye Mau
[18:43] Monica Balut: So here, you have to know your product
[18:43] Dolce Enderfield: You also need to be on top of your 'game'....making sure you are greeting every single person that walks in. Depending on where you work, your boss may be picky about little details or not.
[18:43] Dolce Enderfield: Yes...
[18:43] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Bye Mau
[18:43] Dolce Enderfield: Now, I'll kind of do an overview of what I do with my models at MLC and stuff before we open the floor for questions...
[18:44] Dolce Enderfield: Mohna is very picky about her models and their looks, as any designer really should be.
[18:44] Dolce Enderfield shouts: Mohna is very picky about her models and their looks, as any designer really should be.
[18:44] Docseree Mistwalker: true
[18:44] Dolce Enderfield: It is up to me to hire, train and fire models as I see fit.
[18:44] Dolce Enderfield: Typically, when I bring on a "new" model to MLC....
[18:45] Dolce Enderfield: I give them a thorough orientation.
[18:45] Dolce Enderfield: I run them through operating the time clock, knowing where my pager is...showing them the best sellers in the store...how to sync the model bots...how to use the stands...and general rules/expectations.
[18:46] Dolce Enderfield: They all can work up to 10 hours a week each.
[18:46] Dolce Enderfield: In 2 hour shifts a day.
[18:47] Dolce Enderfield: Models at MLC get paid L$45 starting out and depending on their time each week, they get one or two of the latest releases.
[18:47] Dolce Enderfield: We're also working on giving out a free outfit each month.
[18:47] Dolce Enderfield: We also have top models...and those are the ones that have worked at MLC for a minimum of 3 months and have proven to be reliable, good with customers, etc.
[18:48] Dolce Enderfield: Chickie Ashbourne, who is here with us tonight I believe...was just promoted not too long ago.
[18:48] Dolce Enderfield: The top models get selected first for photo shoots, runways, etc and get all new releases and a pay increase during their store modeling.
[18:48] Dolce Enderfield: But, that is just MLC.
[18:49] Dolce Enderfield: I cannot honestly speak about other stores and their practices, because I don't work there..
[18:49] Dolce Enderfield: But hopefully that gives you a bit more of an idea on store modeling.
[18:49] Dolce Enderfield: And the other category of store modeling, right quick, is being general customer service reps...
[18:50] Docseree Mistwalker: can i add something DOlce?
[18:50] Dolce Enderfield: You may or may not be a model, but you are generally wearing the clothes of that store and doing everything a model would and more.
[18:50] Dolce Enderfield: Of course, I am done. :)
[18:50] Docseree Mistwalker: I am the opposite of Mohna I am very flexible and Id rather have a new model than a veteran one.. because new models have the guts to stay at my runway and old models lacks time.
[18:50] Docseree Mistwalker: I had Glitter, Kat, Valeria, etc but all of them earns only 1- 5 L$ so you see they stay very short on the runway , but I love them all.
[18:50] Docseree Mistwalker: I need people in store to wear the product. New models are dedicated and persevering but old models are indespensable they give my store prestige if u know what i mean.
[18:50] Dolce Enderfield nods.
[18:51] Dolce Enderfield nods.
[18:51] Docseree Mistwalker: thats all :)
[18:51] Docseree Mistwalker shouts: thats all :)
[18:52] Dolce Enderfield: Ok...with alllll that being said, let's go ahead and open the floor to questions for about 5-10 minutes.
[18:52] Monica Balut: So besides the money and clothes you get to keep, why else would someone want to do this type of work?
[18:52] Docseree Mistwalker: :)
[18:52] Docseree Mistwalker shouts: :)
[18:52] Bronze Restful: for the experience
[18:53] Risa Bright: To get things you may not be able to afford otherwise
[18:53] Bronze Restful: to learn
[18:53] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Meeting people.
[18:53] Docseree Mistwalker: residents would rather earn as a model having a prestige attached to it rather than do camping chairs
[18:53] Dolce Enderfield: I don't do it. Mohna won't let me model in-store...but I do anyways...not actual modeling, but when it's slow, I'll go to the store and spin with the model working and keep them company.
[18:53] Myown Destiny: Can you please tell me how is the best way to apply for one of these positions?
[18:53] Dolce Enderfield: The best way...
[18:54] Dolce Enderfield: Is to look up the designers profile...and read it thoroughly..
[18:54] Monica Balut: I'm told that nany pple do this as a stepping stone to other modeling jobs
[18:54] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Helping costumers :}
[18:54] Docseree Mistwalker: true
[18:54] Dolce Enderfield: Most designers will have some sort of information in their profile...either in the about me or picks
[18:54] Myown Destiny: TY :)
[18:54] Dolce Enderfield: On applying for work at their store or who to contact.
[18:54] Docseree Mistwalker: yes you have to approach the right persons
[18:54] Caffinelover Selona: i do it because the owner of the store is going to have her models on the blogs, and maybe print
[18:54] Monica Balut: You could look up the want ads in search
[18:55] Docseree Mistwalker: the best way is to get in touch with fashion groups that sends out notices
[18:55] Monica Balut: I think Herra said she did that when she started
[18:55] Caffinelover Selona: true Seree
[18:55] Docseree Mistwalker: mhmmm
[18:55] Dolce Enderfield: ALWAYS make sure you try to contact the right person. If no one is listed as a contact for that designer or no info is given on modeling in the store...first, make sure they have models there, and then send a short, polite notecard to the designer asking how to go about applying for a modeling position if available.
[18:55] Docseree Mistwalker: chat lag again
[18:55] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Notices often go our through model groups also.
[18:56] Docseree Mistwalker: yes
[18:56] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Looking for store models.
[18:56] Myown Destiny: this is so very helpful!!
[18:56] Dolce Enderfield: Yes, keep yourself updated in the modeling groups.
[18:56] Meisha Verstandig: if anyone wants to try it crave is advertising for models
[18:56] Monica Balut: Remember to put that experience in your resume
[18:56] Dolce Enderfield: Speaking from my experience working with a designer and knowing what they go through....
[18:57] Monica Balut: good point Dolce
[18:57] Dolce Enderfield: If you are contacting the designer for info on modeling...make sure its in a notecard, make sure your message is easy to understand, even for those that don't speak great English...
[18:57] Docseree Mistwalker: if you want to instore model for me you have to join my contest.. for males I hire directly but currently we are filled up for females they have to be a monthly finalist of DMG Creative look of the month to have a 1 month store modeling contract
[18:57] Dolce Enderfield: Keep it short...include your full name at the end...do NOT send a resume or photos, etc over.
[18:58] Dolce Enderfield: Otherwise, your notecard will possibly get tossed away with the 20+ other notecards that a designer can receive a day.
[18:59] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Stores models are like families, much like and agency you may belong to :}
[18:59] Docseree Mistwalker: If you want to in store model for DMG Creations I can send you the NC on how to apply.. you need to become a finalist in DMG CREATIVE LOOK OF THE MONTH CONTEST To win a one month instore modeling contract
[18:59] Docseree Mistwalker shouts: If you want to in store model for DMG Creations I can send you the NC on how to apply.. you need to become a finalist in DMG CREATIVE LOOK OF THE MONTH CONTEST To win a one month instore modeling contract
[18:59] Dolce Enderfield nods.
[18:59] Monica Balut: And some pple work themselves up to being store managers.
[18:59] Caffinelover Selona: As i have seen when agency have a fashion show one model or two from the store have them walking the unway wit hthe gency that they hired to do their sow
[18:59] Docseree Mistwalker: yes true the most dedicated
[18:59] Caffinelover Selona whispers: show
[19:00] Dolce Enderfield: I first met Mohna in April, met her in store in June...did a chicken dance around one of her store bots the same night...
[19:00] Dolce Enderfield: And she still hired me.
[19:00] Monica Balut: Some stores do their own runway shows. Do the store models have a chance at that?
[19:00] Xenobia Foxclaw: LOL
[19:00] Docseree Mistwalker: yes
[19:01] Dolce Enderfield: But it was originally for model outsourcing, then I started doing marketing and customer service more on my own and now...I get paid very well to do it all.
[19:01] Docseree Mistwalker: they are the first on the list before casting is sent out
[19:01] Bearlyhere Quandry shouts: Yes many will choose from their store models first.
[19:01] Myown Destiny: I do please!
[19:01] Monica Balut: So this is an opportunity to get runway work
[19:01] Garrett Ceriano: Can anyone think of any stores that use Male Live Models? I can't at the moment...
[19:01] Docseree Mistwalker: I wanted to acknowledge one of my precious writers XENOBIA who sits quietly
