You can’t do this from a model. In MVC, a model is a representation of the data structure that corresponds to the information you are sending to and from the page. The very point of MVC is to separate the aesthetics of the site from the logic that actually makes it run. In order to set visual aspects of a view you need to alter the view’s CSS.
