MAJOR DEPARTMENT STORE CASTING: REAL WOMEN 24-56 LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT FIT!

MAJOR DEPARTMENT STORE CASTING: REAL WOMEN 24-56 LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT FIT!

CLIENT: Major Department Store

TYPE: Web Only Industrial (Non Union )

USAGE: Buy Out.

Casting Date: FEB 1ST!

SHOOT DATE: The week of Feb 8th.

SHOOT LOCATION: NYC

CASTING: Impossible Casting, NYC (SEE SITE IMPOSSIBLECASTING.COM)

PAY: $650 or equivalent gift card

DESCRIPTION: FINDING THE RIGHT FIT

Did you know that 80% of women are wearing the wrong size bra? Finding the right fit can be the hardest part of shopping for a bra

and what looks good on a mannequin may not look as good on you! Why is it so difficult for women to find the right bra? Most women
have never had a professional fitting and fail to realize that a proper fit can make a huge difference in how they look and feel.

Unfortunately there are women out there who find the honest discussion of bra size to be an embarrassment. This needless embarrassment keeps these women from seeking the professional help they desperately need. Many of these women
silently suffer with pain and discomfort associated with wearing "the wrong bra". Common problems reported by women include: "Size Problems": lumps and or spilling, loose padding, or other size problems. "Structure Problems": Intrusive snaps, straps and under wires that leave lines or scratches. "Lift Problems":
bad lift results in an unflattering profile,excessive lift is a problem for those looking to minimize their profile. "Exposure Problems": associated with sheer clothes or strapless bras resulting in embarrassing slips "Functional Problems": forcing a bra to work with clothes the bra was not intended for i.e. using tape, safety pins etc.

Like women, no two bras are exactly alike. That's why the fitting experts at this major department store are looking for real women, 24 to 56, who personify beauty, poise and form but don't necessarily show it in their choice of bras. We'd like these women to share their real life stories with other women on the department stores website. Women of all shapes and sizes with a strong inner and outer beauty will be considered. Curves or no curves, all body types are welcome. Stories can be anecdotal, serious, funny, embarrassing as long as they are true and involve you wearing the wrong
kind of bra.

COMPENSATION: Get selected to tell us your story on the department store website and get $650 or equivalent department store gift Card!

TO SUBMIT: Please E-mail a picture of yourself.(headshots are OK but regular snap shots are also encouraged), how you heard about the casting and a
paragraph or so of your story to:

THERIGHTFIT@IMPOSSIBLECASTING.COM .

PUT RIGHTFIT/YOUR NAME in SUBJECT LINE.

Interviews will be held in NYC ON FEB 1st and 2nd. Please be 100% honest!
