DOPE MUSE POSE
FAQ

Questions, answered.

I’m just getting started — can I still join?

Yes. The Collective is built for aspiring and developing models ages 19–29 — no experience required. Most of our roster started from zero.

Do I need to be in college?

No. Students are welcome and we keep campus partners across Richmond and D.C., but enrollment is never a requirement. If you’re 19–29, you belong.

Does it cost anything to apply?

Applying is free. Program and membership details are shared at your first casting.

What should I wear to a casting?

Simple, fitted basics that show your natural look — solid colors, minimal makeup, comfortable shoes you can walk confidently in. Bring heels if runway is your focus.

How often are events?

Monthly castings and shoots, practice runway nights, and seasonal showcases.

Where are events held?

Primarily at 360ism Studios in downtown Richmond, plus partner venues in Richmond and Washington, D.C.

Can brands collaborate?

Yes — local designers, boutiques, and beauty teams collaborate on themed shoots. Reach out through the contact page.
