Great for fashion images where the clothing is the object of the image and the clothing gets the brunt of the attention, but for portraiture where the subject is the object of the image these are boring, colorless and boring, and really boring.

Nearly everyone looks good on blues, greens and browns, especially if they are not seamless all one color but instead are mottled, or swirled with a variety of several colors like one gets with a muslin or painted canvas background.

Your local camera shops are the best place to buy seamless. They order large quantities and get a much better deal on the freight. Not if you live in NJ. $12 bucks to ship.
