How to Become a Juicy Couture Model
Juicy Couture is a high fashion design house that caters mostly to women, featuring fun, pink items of clothing, and has been made famous by a very vivid, clever marketing campaign, featuring models in unforgettable poses and images. That being the case, it's not unreasonable for an aspiring model to want to become a Juicy Couture model. There are two paths to this destination: a traditional route, designated in steps 1 and 2 and a slightly less traditional root, designated in steps 3 and 4. Remember that there is no guaranteed method to become a model for any top designer.

Take snapshots of yourself standing in front of a light, cream-colored wall. Don't wear much makeup and keep your hair looking natural and not overly styled. Take one closeup of you smiling, another closeup of you not smiling, a full-length body shot from your head to toes, and a half-length body shot from your mid-thighs to your head.

Submit your pictures to the top modeling agencies: Ford Models, Elite Models, Wilhelmina, IMG models. In order to work for a major designer such as Juicy Couture, you need to be represented by a top modeling agency. A top modeling agency can get you in to a casting for Juicy Couture or perhaps even arrange a meeting for you with them. This is a long shot however, and very few people get accepted.

Contact Juicy Couture's corporate office and get a list of their signature photographers. Contact each one and ask if they would be willing to shoot a modeling portfolio for you in the style of Juicy Couture. While some may say no, a few might be interested, though you will most likely have to schedule the appointment a few months in advance. This will also be very expensive.

Bring 6 or 7 outfits to the photo shoot, making sure that they are all designed by Juicy Couture. Pose in a manner evocative of past Juicy Couture advertisements that you've seen before.

Ask the photographer to choose his or her top ten favorite pictures. Submit hard copies of those photos to the marketing department of Juicy Couture. Include a letter explaining that you are a model and that you represent yourself and that you would love to work with them. Provide all of your contact information.
