Most often I use a black 9' X 9' to put the model in shadow. This will knock the harsh sun from her body and allow me to light her body the way that I want to light it. I'll throw in a mainlight and a few accents and make sure it balances up nicely with the background and we're off and running. I use black because we are mainly shooting in the middle of the day and the light is very harsh. If it were early morn or late evening, I'd use white translucent or nothing at all.
