Do you provide pull-letters?
FOREIGN LOOK MAGAZINE receives up to 300 pull-letters demands each month for photoshoots. Around 90% of the time, after we provide pull-letters, these photoshoots never happen or are submitted to other magazines. Because of this, we have decided to implement a fixed fee for pull letters of USD$10.00. If you do not wish to pay this fee, we completely understand. There are other ways to insure your samples such as giving a deposit or lending your credit card to the designer(s). We will be happy to review your editorial submissions afterward.
If you are a serious team and would like us to provide you with a pull letter for your photoshoot, please submit your photoshoot details below. This purchase will guarantee a pull letter but it does not guarantee that your editorial will be accepted to be published. Also, make sure that the dates and the team are exact and final, as we don’t offer multiple pull-letters per purchase.
