Why start a career in modeling? Well most people think it is an easy career to get started but if you want the truth, you don't get much out of the modeling business unless you are a very specific type. Modeling Agencies have specific height requirements and sizes that even plus size models must fit. The general guidelines for women are height 5'9" to 6', around size 6, 34B-24-34, and 14-21 years of age. For men the guidelines are height around 6' (a couple of inches over or under), size 40R. For a plus size model the height requirement is 5'8"-6'0", size 8-12, age over 18. As a rule, any modeling agency or management company that advertises that they accept "petite" models is a scam. "Petite" fashion modeling is almost non-existent except at the very lowest levels of the industry, which pay very little. When a model below 5'8" or above 6'0" tall is successful it is almost always because someone, typically a modeling agent, took a special interest in a girl and "made" her career, or because of fame in a non-modeling field. It doesn't happen through the normal route, but by having a special person with influence in the industry decide, for whatever reason, to push you to the front of the line. This one of the many reasons a career in modeling can be a difficult route. More»
