Evaluation
• The role of fashion stylist is someone who styles and chooses clothes and hair and make up for advertising campaigns and models and celebrities. • The roles of a personal shopper is someone who is paid to buy clothes and suggest ideas for people who want help buying clothes usually employed by shops such as Topshop. • A fashion stylist has a lot of responsibilities such as keeping up with the fashion trends, be able to work under pressure and organised. • I chose flawless as my trend for the photo shoot it was natural colours and very subtle.it influenced my photo shoot because I like the style and the colours that were used I this trend, I wanted to do like a metallic theme because a lot of silver and white were on the colour chart so I did silver eye makeup, metallic bags and I also used silver and gold buttons onto the side of her face to portray the theme more. • I chose two magazines the first one I chose was id magazine because allot of them used close up photos that were black and white so I used a black and white photo I also thought the buttons on her face fit the style of the magazine because a lot of the front covers had props and bold makeup .The second magazine I used was love magazine I chose this because there magazines are colourful and I chose a close up photo what has been edited with some colour to fit the style of the magazine. • I d magazine customer profile I think would be for someone who has a lot of interest in fashion as its fashion based magazine and for older teens to 30 I think my shoot fits in with this magazine because of the style and shows a modern inspired fashion trend.
• Love magazine customer profile would be for someone who is interested in fashion and likes to see what fashion trends are in. I would say that this magazine target market is for anyone that might be in the fashion industry or a fashion student. I think that my shoot fits in with this magazine because some are colourful and some are black and white which are mostly used on the front covers of the magazine. • I done a lot of planning for my photo shoot I researched the trend, I done mood boards for different hair, makeup and clothes in the colours and styles that I needed. • I think that my photo shoot went to plan It would of helped if there was a practise run so that I knew how much time there was. All the planning helped me because I had all the clothes ready and knew what I was doing with the makeup. If I could do things differently I would take more time to take the photos because I was rushed at the end.
