Things to Bring

Among the many things anyone would have to pack for a 3-month trip, my contract lists a few items I'm required to bring.

Here's a quick list of things I'm contractually obligated to have for castings "as directed by the Agent":
1.  Makeup kit 
2.  Correcting kit 
3.  Bridal kit
4.  Black pumps  
5.  White pumps 
6.  Fashion wear

Four out of six of these I have covered.  I even bought a new pair of white pumps.  

However, perhaps I should have taken Muggle Studies because I had no idea what correcting kits and bridal kits were.  Anyway, I emailed the agency to ask about this (they aren't accustomed to receiving messages by owl), and this was the response:

"...Models usually use towel, belly band, Nu-bra and some kind of underwear to fit your body in the prepared dress.  Also use bridal bustier."

Ah-ha!  So at least now I know I need nude undergarments, a stick-on bra, and ...a towel?  I'm most curious to find out why I will be needing a towel.  Also, what in the world is a belly band?  Is it like a girdle? lol I can assure you that the last thing I need is a girdle.  Maybe if a store sells reverse girdles to make me look bigger....  Oh, and a bridal bustier!  I had to google that one.  It sounds like a cross between a girdle and a bra.  

If anyone has any clue as to what this mysterious belly band might be, please comment and let me know!  I think I may have to come up with a prize for the most correct and the most creative and entertaining answer... ;D
