LESSON 5 · What to Wear Where
Texture Reads On Screen
Color is only part of the picture; the surface of the fabric matters too. A smooth weave with a hint of texture looks crisp and expensive on camera, think quality cotton or light wool. The two extremes both backfire: high-shine fabrics like satin or sequins throw glare and hot spots, while dead-flat, matte cloth can look cheap and lifeless. Aim for a surface with quiet structure, enough to catch light gently without sparkling or going dull.
