22. Clothes and Accessories

A) A model’s clothes provide warmth, comfort, and (for many people) a feeling of security, between poses, and provide accents during poses. An ankle-length robe can often be useful for all these purposes, and can be useful as a rug, if the floor is too chilly, or too rough. Bring slippers, too: tacks are a constant danger.

B) Large hats, a staff, large or small balls, a scarf, sports equipment, a book, or tools can give artists and models fresh ideas for poses. It is a good idea to bring one or two such items to each session.
