Since we are reshooting and have to match, this will be played as Winter. If you wore your own clothes bring back everything that you wore, including coats, scarves, gloves, etc. No open toe shoes. If you are new this time, you must bring outerwear/coats with you.

FRIDAY 6/24
OK folks, it's time to shoot the last day of the week!! Everyone's gonna look fantastic, I know it!!
We're shooting an upscale hotel FOUR SEASONS, so following find all the pertinent information for all the individual characters playing there.
The season is Late Winter, so please bring seasonally appropriate clothing for that time. This means long sleeves, closed toe shoes and light weight to mid weight outer wear as some of you may be seen entering or exiting the hotel.
The color pallete should reflect the season that we are in, Late Winter. More neutrals, jewel tones, darker shades of colors, rather than the brighter shades of Spring or Summer.
In the categories below you will see suggestions for the kinds of things that we would like to see. Please try to bring some of all. We realize that not everyone has an unlimited wardrobe, but please try to hit all the categories if you can.
UPSCALE GUESTS Some may be in the lobby, some coming and going and some having a drink at the bar. To that end, everyone should bring a range of upscale casual to upscale dressy. This would include suits, blazers and slacks or skirts, sweaters, leather jackets, trench coats, long sleeve shirts and blouses, nice jeans, great shoes, etc. Please bring you best accessories such as jewelry, handbags, messenger bags, etc. Please make sure that what you choose looks as nice as it possibly can. If everyone comes prepared to wear a suit or jeans, then we will have better luck giving the director what he wants. Tasteful and elegant is what we want. Even the casual clothes should be the casual clothing of the monied.
A word about color and texture...The setting is pretty dark so please do not bring all black and grey. We need to be able to pick people out of the background. Color is great as long as it feels season appropriate. Patterns and textures are great as long as they are not too busy or loud.
LATIF SAUDI ASST/LIMO DRIVER/BODYGUARD Should all bring dark suits, grey or black or dark brown, solid or subtly striped white or cream or pale grey shirts, dark solid ties, dark shoes and belt.
MODELS FOR PRINCE you ladies get the fun part!! You should basically bring every sexy thing that you own as well as more sophisticated clothing.

They want you all to be a mix, so if you all come with everything we can get the mix right. Don't worry about colors just bring it all, we will sort it out. You should also bring some light weight outer wear like trench coats or something that you would have worn in over your clothes but now we see it on the chair beside you. Killer shoes!! Bring your best jewelry and bling.
We are not going for streetwalker here, but we are going for sexy and sophisticated. Make sure you bring your best bras, push ups if you like and even the bust enhancers if you use them. Might be interesting to have some different hosiery choices with patterns or what have you.
BELLHOPS AND DOORMEN Will be provided a uniform by the costume department. Please bring black lace up shoes, black socks and belt and a white tee shirt.
CONCIERGE Should all wear dark suits, white shirts and muted tie choices. The women can either bring skirt or pant suits or both.

FRIDAY, 6/17 EXTERIOR BRODY HOUSE
You folks are the lucky ones!!!
We are re-shooting portions of the pilot episode, this day being one of them. When the pilot was shot it was winter and everyone was in coats, scarves and gloves. To match this, we have to do the same again........I know, I know, but that's sho-biz! :-)
If you worked the same scene during the pilot ( and I hope many of you are returning ) please think about what you brought and wore that day and bring all the same things again. The coats, gloves, scarves, caps, whatever you were wearing then we should wear again. The one upside is that if you were covered up by a coat you can bring thinner layers to wear underneath so it won't be as hot. If you can't remember exactly what it was, get as close as you can and also read the following and bring accordingly.
NEIGHBORS & KIDS & TEENAGERS should bring options of winter clothes to include neutral colored pants, jeans w dark wash, winter shoes, scarf, cap and gloves options. Bring layers like sweaters and hoodies. All these should be fairly neutral in colors and certainly no very bright or "eye-catching" colors. Everyone should bring a winter coat which should also be in the neutral pallette of brown, grey, black,
PRINT REPORTERS & PHOTOGRAPHERS & CAMERAMEN & SOUNDMEN should bring neutral colored clothing: tan, black, grey, navy blue, dk green, etc. This should include jeans and khakis and cargo pants & black or grey pants. Looking for layers here. Vests, sweaters, etc. Everyone should bring winter coats in the same neutral color pallette as well as any scarves, caps and gloves that you have. Nothing too bright or eye-catching. Not too much pattern.
AGAIN, IF YOU WORKED IN THE SCENE THIS FIRST TIME, PLEASE BRING THE SAME THINGS THAT YOU WORE THEN. Thanks.

UPDATE FOR MEN AT ALIBI CLUB
All the men coming for the Alibi Club should bring options of the items mentioned below in the original posting for Wed 6/15. You will find this post by scrolling down after you read this.

Navy blazer w gold buttons
Thin dress pullover sweaters
Polo shirts
L/S Button shirts that could be worn without a jacket
The season is late winter early spring so more muted colors will be best.
All still very much men of wealth and influence, but more perhaps as they would be seen at a country club.
Again, bring all of the items listed in the posting below, the suits shirts and ties first mentioned and then some options of these less dressy options.

WED June 15, 2011
Hello and welcome to HOMELAND!! We are looking forward to meeting and working with all of you and look forward to a great season. First, let me say thanks for all the work and effort that I'm sure all of you will put into showing up with the requested items. Remember, the better you look, the more likely you are to have camera time.
We understand that not everyone has everything in their closet. That being said, please read the following and do the best that you can each day you come to work:
-Always try to get as close as you can to what we are asking you to bring. Do not rely on us having everything. You should always pull the best and the most of what we request. That assures us, and you, that there is at least something that fits.
-Please pay close attention to the color specifications that may be listed. These will have a purpose and we are requesting them for a reason. Do the best you can to bring as close to the specified pallette as possible.
-Finally, and perhaps most imortantly, ALWAYS bring at least three options for the requested looks. You should wear your first choice and then have two choices in hand. Again, we realize that sometimes that might be limited, but if you always try to have 3 options of whatever the look is, the better we will be able to make you look.
Again, thanks for coming to play with us on HOMELAND! We couldn't do the show without you and appreciate all the hard work that you will be doing over the course of the season. Looking good gets you seen, and following the directions you recieve here will help you look good....I'm sure you can follow the logic :-) Keep reading for the specific information for the first day.
See you on the set!!

WED June 15, 2011
GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS please bring choices of dark suits, slacks and jackets or skirts and jackets. Both men and women will need to look sharp and like they belong in the White House or the Pentagon. Everyone should also bring shirt/tie and blouse options. Shirts/blouses should not be bright white (off white is fine) and can have color and pattern. Pattern should be subtle and simple, like a small stripe or geometric, colors should be colors from the business world and not too bright or bold. For the men, ties should be understated and not overly bright nor have too large or bold a pattern. Please don't forget the items such as shoes, belts and accessories that will complete your outfit. Women please bring understated jewelry. Men make sure to have dress socks and a white tee with you.
WASPY MALES/ALIBI CLUB Please bring options of suits, shirts and ties. This is a gentleman's club ( and not THAT kind ) ;-) therefore everything should be as nice and rich looking as possible. Elegant and understated is usually the best way to sell this. This means that the suits should be med to dark in color and tone. The shirts should be in a range of off-white, cream, light blue, small striping in subtle colors. Ties also should be understated and elegant. No overly bright colors or too-bold patterns. Think banker, lawyer, doctor...you know, all the things your mother wanted you to be.
MILITARY BRASS & ENLISTED All of these will be given an uniform by the costume department. Everyone should make sure to bring black dress socks, white, calf length athletic socks and a plain white crew neck tee shirt. Everyone bringing all of these things ensures that you have them should we need to do some switching around due to sizing issues.
