Tips: how to get published in fashion features

You want to know how to get published in HYPEED’s fashion features? Follow these steps!


  • Ask someone to take your pictures. In-the-mirror pictures or pictures taken with outstretched arms are NEVER published. Same for pictures where we can actually see the base on which you put your camera.
  • Pay attention to the frame. If half your head is cut out from the shot, or if there’s 2 meters of wall above your head, there’s a big chance your outfit won’t be highlighted as much as it deserves.
  • Find a pretty setting. Okay, not everyone has a backyard full of flowers or a pond. But try to find a cool place, or at least a white wall. Always avoid showing the mess in your room, or furniture-crowded rooms. Remember that a photo will look at its best when taken outside, with a nice light.
  • Don’t cheat. Send us at least three pictures of you wearing the same outfit. It’s also cool to add close ups, and at least one head to toe shot.
  • Don’t tag your photos with your blog url or nickname. Don’t worry, we’ll add a link to your profile. It would be a shame if we couldn’t use your pic just because it was tagged, don’t you think?
  • Trouble over your pictures quality. We cannot publish blurry pictures, so pay attention to that.
  • Respect the theme. it may seem obvious, but when you send us photos for a particular theme, make sure we can see the item in question.

    @ missy cheeks & Victoria : thank you girls :)

    @ isabella : you can totally take pictures of your friends and send them to HYPEED, it’s totally okay, as long as you write a little comment to give the name of your friend!

    @POR : you have to send your pictures if they match one of our themes. Check the themes here : http://hypeed.com/participate
