Today we are sitting down with Miss Bikini Model 2019, Dare Taylor.
Name: Dare Taylor
Current Location: Orlando Florida
You were one of the winners of Miss Bikini 2019 at Miami Swim Week, what was your favorite experience during that event?
My favorite experience was having the opportunity to walk in a bikini show for Miami swim week. Many people around the world recognize that it is very difficult to be chosen on Miami swim week to walk in a runway show. I’m so grateful and proud that Miss Bikini offers this to every single contestant and makes us all feel important and allows us to pick out our own bikinis for the show.
Who or what inspired you to get started in modeling?
I started modeling when I was 10 years old. My mom would take me out to the local beach and we would take pictures for my upcoming pageants.
My mom was also a pageant girl and introduced me to this industry and I’m so grateful for that because pageants have given me a voice, and inspired me to be the best version of myself. When I was younger the photos were only Headshots but the experience and practice made me the model I am today. I started my agency modeling career at 18 and booked many jobs but I felt stunted living in Minnesota. I took my modeling career to the next level when I move down to Florida and it’s continuing to grow as I move to California.
Tell us about your modeling experience.
I started at age ten & the photos were only Headshots but the experience and practice made me the model I am today. I started my agency modeling career at 18 and booked many jobs but I felt stunted living in Minnesota. I took my modeling career to the next level when I move down to Florida at that time I outgrew the agents I was signed to and I started my own modeling business. I have my own team that helps me schedule plan and prep for each model shoot, helps me get on magazine covers and help upload YouTube channel modeling videos as well. My business is continuing to grow as I move to California.
What is your best fitness tip?
The most important thing is consistency in my opinion. It’s always easy to go to the gym the first day, but it’s much harder to go consistently for two weeks. I advise most models to make a plan and advanced and set a gym schedule where you can work on all parts of your body on different days and different times. With consistency and planning your progress will progress because you’re putting in the time and effort.
What are the beauty products you can’t live without?
Honestly I don’t have many beauty products I can’t live without. I like to go for the all natural look for a lot of my shoots. I think it’s important in this day and age to stress all types of beauty, not to say that I think Make Up and big hair isn’t fabulous. I personally just like to take strides in all natural beauty and that we all are beautiful.
What is your personal style?
I would say my style is very glitzy, and colorful! I don’t honestly own alot of plain colors, my wardrobe is typically pretty loud yet trendy with the times.
What is one of the most interesting shoots that you have done?
In my years of doing modeling I have been to so many amazing locations. Miami Beach has always been an exciting one which is where the pageant takes place, I loved shooting on Malibu Beach out in California, and Muscle beach as well.
I guess it’s easy to say I like shooting on beaches!
What is your favorite thing to do in your free time ?
I don’t usually have a lot of free time but if I do I spend it watching YouTube videos, spending time with my family, and deciding what my next step is with my YouTube channel! I love what I do so it never truly feels like work
What is the most interesting place you have ever visited?
sounds kind of crazy but I would definitely say visiting LA was pretty interesting. I grew up in Central Minnesota, moved down to Orlando Florida, and now I’m moving to LA. I would say it’s the most interesting because it’s unlike any place I’ve ever been to but I can’t wait to live there!
What do you hope to achieve in the future?
I know my business will continue to grow, my YouTube channel will bring me amazing opportunities, and my acting career will bring me much joy! Honestly I hope to continue doing what I’m doing now, grow my team that helps support me and continuing to be happy every single day.
