Model Looks
1. My first look is relevant for my genre because it is a casual style that doesn't need too much effort. The shirt can be worn in several ways paired up with a strap top underneath, so I can take a variety of images based on this same style. A buttoned-up look would show that the model is smart, quite reserved or more girly. If the shirt is unbuttoned then the model would have quite a rough-casual edge, be relaxed and have a bit of attitude. The high waisted jeans are very in fashion at the moment which is great for a modern magazine. Because they are black I can pair any accessory or shoes with them. The necklace is simply to add a bit of style, the model will look a more like an artist wearing accessories. Converse also go perfectly with such a casual look. They are white which are very popular and also affordable. Converse are comfy which makes my model look comfortable rather than in pain wearing high -platform feels.
2. My second look is floral which stereotypically is a girly attire, for example, you rarely see 'tomboys' or 'chavs' wearing floral tops. Daisy prints are also one of the top trends at the moment which is appealing to my target audience as it is for the younger generations. I have used the same jeans and shoes for the reasons stated above. Black is also an easy colour to work with when choosing the colour scheme for the feature stories, masthead, etc. I've also included some bracelets that are what 'Indies' wear. Multiple bracelets often show different memories or meanings, or just look different drawing a line from accessories that any other genre would wear.
3. My third look is very appealing to my audience as it has the floral, girly personality; and the attitude from the black Dr. Martens boots. The shirt is colourful which helps me with the colour scheme and again there is a theme of black going on with the skirt and tights. The velvet skirt was chosen as it shows that my model is a little more dressed up in comparison to the other looks, it also may look more attractive and make a wider audience pick up the magazine. However, the purpose of my image is not to look appealing in a sexual way - which is why the other two looks are more reserved - although I still want to make my image clear and appropriate according to my genre and target audience.
