Poise, Naturalness
‘Required Of Models
| The buxom Gibson girl, the glam-
| orous Ziegfeld girl are both part of
= American tradition of beauty,
ut they have been supplanted to-
{| day by the Powers’ models—those
| lovely, poised American girls you
| see in advertisements, on the cov-
| ers of magazines, and in fashion il-
lustrations.
The story of these girls, their
tricks which have made them a
success, is related by the father
of all modeling agencies, John
Robert Powers, in the November
| issue of Cosmopolitan magazine.
As a result of Powers’ work, model-
Dana Jenney,
Typical Powers’ Model
ing has become a top-flight profes-
sion which has radically changed
advertising methods, influenced the
buying habits of the nation, and is
vitally affecting the American girl
and woman of today.
In considering a model, Powers
says he looks for simplicity in
dress, in make-up, and in manner.
He looks for the spark of imagina-
tion which is important in inter-
preting the advertiser's product
and conveying an idea or an emo-
tion to the person who sees the
picture. Finally, the candidate must
be photogenic—that * is, she ‘must
photograph well. Because he makes
these demands, the Powers’ model
is inevitably, natural, youthful, and
pretty, with a universal appeal, but
without excessive make-up, with-
out the mincing, artificial walk
usually associated with models.
According to Powers the business
of modeling is basically the lending
of an attractive personality for the
dramatization of merchandise. It ‘is
not always the model's job to be
beautiful, he says, for she has to
run the gamut of human emotions
from the discomfort of acid
stomach to the enchantment of the
skin you love to touch.
But in spite’ ‘of this essential
dramatic flavor, the Powers’ models
are. teaching women that simplic-
ity is good taste; that smartness is
the result of good judgment rather
than the following of fads. They
are teaching that health and nat-
uralness are the primary attributes
of beauty. They are teaching the in-
estimable value of poise—for the
unerring eye of the camera regis-
ters poise as surely as the barom-
eter measures weather.
The average number of demerits
awarded each midshipmen at" the
Naval Academy is 54.137.
