So, about last week I attended this event held by TRESemmé called The Runway at Senayan City, Jakarta. The event was fun to watch and it was so packed as you can see below:
What is The Runway actually?
The Runway adalah
acara yang diselenggarakan oleh TRESemmé Indonesia untuk para Style Seekers
(sebutan untuk fans TRESemmé) dimana para Style Seekers dapat merasakan
pengalaman seperti top model, bersama para finalis Asia’s Next Top Model.
Peserta The Runway akan mendapatkan free workshop tentang make up, hair styling dan
catwalk dari para professional di acara tersebut. Dan peserta The Runway
juga berkesempatan menjadi TRESemmé YouTube Star.
Para kontestan Asia's Next Top Model 2 juga ikut hadir memeriahkan acara tersebut dengan cat-walking and posing on the stage:

Kamu hanya perlu mengisi data-data yang diperlukan lalu klik "Submit"! :D
4. Prepare your Runway Shirt!
For example, I will modify my shirt to be like my own red striped shirt (well, kind of). ↑
You only need ONE tool to get it done: SCISSORS. And a sharp one, please.
First, I'm gonna cut this part of the shirt to create the ties.
After that, I'm gonna cut the shirt right in the middle to make it cropped!
TADAH! Easy peasy right? Although I must admit the cutting is quite messy lol. But that's okay! This is not a designer contest :D
NEXT! To make it more unique and outstanding (hence more attention), I'm going to write something on the back of the shirt! Yes, using NAIL POLISH! In vibrant color some more!!
Don't forget to slip in a book as a base for your writing and to prevent the nail polish from seeping into the front part of the shirt.
I decided to write my name on it to make the judges easier to remember me!
Like, "The girl with the name written on the back." haha! I also added my horoscope symbol to make it even more memorable lol. Who knows if there is a girl named Elle too and she also writes her name on her back? Wouldn't wanna risk that...
You might also want to check this video out for some inspiration to modify your shirt:
5. Now that your runway shirt is ready, it's time to work on your presentation at the event! I'm going to share with you some tips from what I've learned during the event! :D
5.1. POSE! POSE! POSE!
When you reach the end of the runway (the point where there are a lot of photographers ready to snap you), DON'T JUST WALK AWAY:
5 Tips for Rocking the Runway
5.1. POSE! POSE! POSE!
When you reach the end of the runway (the point where there are a lot of photographers ready to snap you), DON'T JUST WALK AWAY:

Just a simple classic pose like this is enough:
 |
| Lean on one hip, make an eye contact, and SMILE! |
Or if you want to make a statement, you can pose like this lol:
Some of the contestants were really good at posing, they even TWIRLED:
 |
| ::clap clap clap:: |
It will ruin the rhythm of someone behind you (poor her) and worse, it makes you look timid! Which is not a good quality in modeling.

The way you walk depends on your shoes! Most of the contestants walked awkwardly because they walked in sky high stilettos, which are fine IF you're trained with them. But if you are not, better choose something that will help you walk steadily and confidently. REMEMBER, the judges will not judge you based on what you're wearing, but more on how you present yourself as a model.
 |
| I'd choose BOOTS of course! |
Even though most professional models don't smile, but as an audience, I've got to say I feel happier if I see a contestant smiles! And then I will take a good look at her and try to remember her name. You can also wave and smile to the audience, it will surely grab many attention! :D
As for your eyes, pick a spot that you can stare at so you won’t get distracted by anything else around you! Never. Look. Down.

5.5. BE CONFIDENT!
This is my last and most important tip. I know it must be nerve-racking when you are about to enter the stage, but just do these 4 simple steps to calm down:
-Take a deep breath three times
-Remember your training
-Pray
-Repeat this to yourself: "I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful, I'm beautiful."
Ok that's all! I hope my tips will work for you :)
