How the market works in Santo Domingo
The runway is only part of the value of RD Fashion Week; the programme also concentrates photographers, designers and other creative teams in one place. Its public model route gives applicants a concrete starting point, while agency and commercial work continue outside the event window.

Before you apply
Images to have ready in Santo Domingo
- A recent close-up with natural skin texture and simple hair.
- A full-length front view plus a clean profile.
- One simple image with movement, without heavy styling.
- A short walk clip if the casting asks for one.
Keep measurements current and use recent images. A portfolio can support an application, but it should not replace clean, neutral digitals when those are requested.
Check the current application requirements at INC Models Santo Domingo and Casting Factory RD before shooting anything specifically for them. Treat the current form as the brief: requested images, measurements and file formats can differ from one organisation to another.
