Walk Down a Catwalk in a Fashion Show

Many women want to look like models. With these easy instructions you'll be able to strut yourself like a model in no time!

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Comfortable shoes to walk in
  • Confidence to give this a try
  1. Step 1

    Make yourself comfortable. If you are not used to walking in high heels than start small and work your way up to them. If the shoes you are using are brand new than scratch the bottom or put masking tape on the heels to prevent slipping.

  2. Step 2

    Learn to stand. Practice good posture. Throw your shoulders back and push your pelvis forward. This will make you look as if you are leaning rather than hunching.

  3. Step 3

    Practice putting the ball of your foot down first when making a stride. Almost as if you were walking on tip-toes. This may feel weird but it will make your strides look more graceful. Place one foot literally in front of the other. Pretend you are walking in a straight line. When doing this fast it gives your body that sexy swing.

  4. Step 4

    Keep your head up. Focus on something in front of you and keep your head still while the rest of you is moving. When you turn your body your head should be the last thing to turn.

  5. Step 5

    Develop your own signature move. This is easier said then done. But being able to let your personality show through will make you stand out more. Experiment with different moves, ways to move your arms and so forth. Use feedback to see what is good and what looks silly.

Tips & Warnings
  • Videotape yourself walking so you can see for yourself how you look, and you can change what you don't like.
  • Watch modeling show on t.v. for more advice.
  • If you should trip or fall while on the runway recover gracefully by smiling and laughing it off, no one is perfect.
