Runway Facial Expressions

Modeling

Facial expressions play a major role in runway shows. Often times a choreographer will direct models to the kinds of expressions he wants on their faces. This will establish a mood that is in sync with the style of clothes and vibe of the runway show as a whole.\r\n\r\nBelow are six types of facial expressions that are often seen on runway models:\r\n
