subject: Boden's Guide To Male Modelling [print this page] You could spend thousands of pounds on tailor made courses, take 12 months out of your life on an internship, or just simply walk up and down the pavement, catwalk style, waiting to be "discovered". Or you could take a look at Boden's Guide to Male Modelling, and get a headstart*
If there's one thing that Boden has learned over the years, it's that good looks and good clothes mean nothing if you haven't got "the look". Unfortunately, in this fast paced digital world, one look is no longer enough - so we've put together some iconic model poses for you to practice before you embark on the dizzying road to superstardom.
Nothing screams beauty quite like intelligence, so start yourself off with The Thinker. Everyone will be clamouring to find out exactly what's going on in that head of yours. Popularity is important too, so take the time to talk to your imaginary friend - your relaxed demeanour will make the clothers you are modelling sing to the camera.
While Mouse Knitting may sound ridiculous, it's easy to pull off and looks fantastic: just bridge your fingers together like you're knitting with the tiniest needles known to man to give yourself that intense look of empathy - the camera will fall in love with you.
To top it all off, the most important look you'll need to succeed in the world of male modelling: Rolling The Bogey. We've all done it. Just pinch your thumb and forefinger together, keep your other hand in your pocket, and roll finger and thumb together like your life depends on it.
