“The expectation that models should change in front of people is also a way for the client to exert power. It's both a test and a reminder of your position: everyone else is doing their job; now it's time for you to do yours. The stylist, their assistant, the client or editor, the other models, and sometimes the photographer will stand right in front of you and wait as you strip.

(K-Spa)”
