*1) Must be at the time you have sent your application. For example: Today, July 8, 2012 your age is 29 but you will be 30 before the go see on October 2012. IT'S OKAY. As long as you are within that age range 18-29 when you have submitted your application, IT'S OKAY.

In another example, you are 17 today (July 8, 2012) and you will only turn 18 years of age after the GO-SEE on October 2012 (ex your birthday is on November 2012 and so forth), unfortunately you will have to wait for next year.

*2) We really need models who are flexible in terms of modelling garments and is confident enough to wear sleeveless and tube. 

We are open to both VETERANS AND AMATEURS. If you can do the poses that we require of you, then we are good.

We highly encourage that you get your photos done professionally or at least submit photos that are clear. This way, we can see you better. We HIGHLY ENCOURAGE that you at least submit the MINIMUM PHOTO REQUIREMENTS so that you give yourself a fairer chance when it comes to review. You are not giving yourself justice if you send us NUMEROUS HEADSHOTS and NO BODY SHOTS of yourself (AND VICE VERSA). We will only cater to those who have the minimum requirements to be fair to others who have exerted their effort in following it. 

*3) to be revealed when model is chosen for project.

*4)We will only accept applications VIA EMAIL with the CORRECT FORMAT. Any application who has violated this format will be AUTOMATICALLY REJECTED to be fair to those who has complied with the instruction. Thank you.

*5) A lot of your girls are asking if we accept models OUTSIDE OF METRO MANILA, PHILIPPINES. Yes we do. As long as your comfortable travelling to MANILA for the go-see and (if chosen) for the shoots on your own, we are okay.

There are also questions about the sizes. Please see the requirements above. You must have AT LEAST 2 of the measurements down to be accepted. 

Example (1) you are good with the BUST AND WAIST but is beyond or short on the hips, IT'S OKAY. 

Example (2) you are good with the WAIST AND HIPS but is beyond or short on the BUST, IT'S OKAY

Example (3) you are good with the HIPS AND BUST but is beyond or short on the WAIST, IT'S OKAY.

It is also good to note that you must know how to measure your body because only APPLICATIONS WITH COMPLETE AND CORRECT requirements are going to be accepted. 

*6) ONCE YOU HAVE SUBMITTED YOUR APPLICATION, please wait AFTER THE DEADLINE (SEPTEMBER 29, 2012) and the announcement of the RELEASE OF INVITES on all of our social sites. That is the ONLY TIME THAT WE WILL RELEASE INVITES. We will only review and screen the applications THOROUGHLY AFTER THE DEADLINE.

Those who have passed their COMPLETE AND CORRECT  model applications before this UPDATED REQUIREMENTS is posted no longer need to pass another application. Not unless, you find your application to have been done wrong. 

OTHER FAQ'S:

1. This go-see is for the ERZULLIE RESORT 2013 collection. It's for the FASHION LINE ALONE. We are not a modelling agency (JUST SO WE ARE CLEAR). For the plus size model go-see we may get 1-2 models or none depending on how the go-see turns out. 

This also means that YOU WILL BE MODELLING CLOTHES AND THERE WILL BE CLOTHES ON YOU. 

2. This plus size model go see is DIFFERENT from the search for the NEXT ERZULLIE ICON. Erzullie Icon's screening process is different than models.

3. It's a plus if you are a natural supporter of the brand or if you have bought and worn Erzullie before.

4. After the deadline, the fashion line will release INVITES via the OFFICIAL EMAIL OF ERZULLIE (erzullie@yahoo.com) ONLY to all the TOP 50 models accepted. The models must confirm their slot on a given deadline (to be stated in the invite). Only then will they be given instructions on the process of the plus size model go-see.

5. To those who have sent their applications last year 2011 and still want to join this year, OF COURSE YOU CAN. You just have to submit the requirements above again. WE DO NOT KEEP YOUR PORTFOLIO AND INFO WITH US FOR YOUR OWN PRIVACY AND PROTECTION FROM OUR END. 

6. ONLY APPLICATIONS THAT CORRECTLY FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS will be entertained to be fair to those that did. 

Cheers!

ERZULLIEFIED! CHOOSING THE RIGHT BLACK LEGGINGS

SEPTEMBER 2, 2011
7:47 AM

COPYRIGHT ERZULLIE 2011

There are a lot of black leggings out there --- but which one should you choose? If you have very curvy calves, refrain using leggings that have cutouts directly on that area as this will outbalance the curves on your legs. If you have curvier thighs than calves, avoid long horizontal cut outs as well. You can have cut outs as long as they are relatively small (not exceeding the horizontal length of your top knees --- remember the cuts will stretch because your leggings will stretch!) 


If you have a balanced curve on your leg (big thighs, small knees and big calves) avoid wearing leggings that has print on the knees only as this will either eliminate or make your knees smaller cutting the parts off and eliminating the fluidity of your legs! (Remember the term legs that go on forever?)

If you have a straigh type of legs (thighs, knees and calves are the same in width) then printed leggings (depending on the print) can help you. Choose prints that is dark on the knee part and lightens up on the edges. This will give the illusion of fluidity on your wonderful legs!

Remember! The goal of any legging is to flatter your legs--- making it look smoother/fluid. (Personally, elongation for me is an option. I am 5"2'. I do not see anything wrong with short legs. <<<biased! Ha!)

Check out the fierce leggings by Erzullie! Balance out printed outerwear and glamorous shoes by wearing a fierce black leggings that contour your legs perfectly! In this case, this legging has a gathered side giving your calves better shape!


Viva Erzullie!


Lots of Fashion Love,

P.S. I was thinking of gargoyles when I made this pose. Hehehehehe.

ERZULLIEFIED! WILD LEGGINGS GIVES THE WOW FACTOR!

SEPTEMBER 1, 2011
8:49 AM

COPYRIGHT ERZULLIE 2011

They said that printed leggings make the legs look bigger but we "beg" to differ. 

You can wear printed leggings (wild ones if you want!) as long as the print goes against the curves of your legs, giving them a more toned up look. Embrace prints that are abstract and the smaller they are the better. You can also tame it by wearing plain tops and shoes. Accessories should be minimal. 


Viva Erzulliefication! ^^
