@@mikaelemafi4618 shes not 5'7 shes actually 5"5 but they lie and said she is 5''7 to get her work. I love kate moss she was so thin so it made her look taller
I think an important point to note is that quite a few of these models either started in the industry when they were younger (like Emily and Cara), which helps because you wouldn’t know how tall they would be and they have already established the beginning of a career before they only grew to 5’7”ish. Or have worked in the industry (as with Naomi’s niece and the boy that modelled for Kanye as you mentioned) and quite possibly had connections. It is quite difficult for an older model (18+) to get started in the modelling industry if they are on the shorter side. Possible, but it is very difficult without already having an “in”.
Certified Tyrone .... Thank you. You still have to be "tall" at least 5'7 and have a look. Devon was an extreme exception due to her unique look, runway body, and father last name.
Certified Tyrone the “average person” also doesn’t need to. Models esp. runway models should have a unique or elite beauty type look. The same way someone uses their math skills to go into a math profession, people use their beauty for a profession. I think ig models are more the average pretty person
@@souljawitch2190 Elite beauty type look? Most of these models go through plastic surgery to get that "unique" beauty look Talking about ig models lol they are all plastic and silicon + 100 layers of makeup and filters Natural beauty is a joke now
These are exceptions. Also, Devin was the daughter of a world-wide famous chef Benihana. Emily R is a commercial model who only began to do HF runways (mostly only Miu Miu) because of follower count. So please make sure these (mainly females) understand that follower count, and having something to boast about will be important if you want to be a short model.
prayl00185 Moss may not be short by average female standards but in the modelling industry. She’s really short. Most agencies only allow auditions for 5’9+ or small few starting at 5’8. And if I remember she is only JUST 5’7, could easily be 5’6. A lot of model lie about their height adding an extra inch if they don’t meet the standard. And depending on how exceptional, talented, etc. the model is, they agency might leave it. Kate Moss is an exception because she was tall when she started if you’d consider her age back then but she didn’t continue to grow due to her addiction.
Lani K .... In most (not all) cases when talking about petite modeling, we are talking about putting short models on the runway. And not just any runway, but high-end prestigious runways like Chanel. We know commercial modeling don't care about height, but high-end commercial (like HM and Zara contracts for non influencers), and high-end runway you generally need to be 5'7 (even for a petite model). So for low end commercial, or non prestigious jobs, height doesn't matter, but the more prestigious and high-end the higher the requirements.
prayl00185 I know. I get what you mean but still stand by my statement. I have worked in the modelling industry even backstage for fashion week so I know, not anyone just gets chosen when they stand at 5’7. Using Moss as an example isn’t really accurate. When you look at most petite high end models active now, most come from wealth, or already had a following. If someone is 5’7, they must have an amazing walk, presence, or look, no agency or casting agent will simply pick a female at 5’7 for a high end show.
Lani K .... You are correct about Moss. Most people don't know that she already had connections in the industry. Very few under 5'10 girls walk a high-end runway.
There are various types of modeling, some don’t have a strict height requirement. I broke it down in this video th-cam.com/video/699XwSvR9bY/w-d-xo.html
Here to tell you that, no matter what don't give up on a dream. Never allow anything, like your height, to limit you. Keep going, despite rejection or setbacks. We only regret the chances we didn't take and the dreams we never chased❤ So go forth and put your heart into pursuing all of your dreams.
sara sampaio, kelsey merritt and josie canseco are all victoria's secret models and in the range of 5'6-5'7 . and they are signed with major agencies. so it's not impossible specially considering how the the fashion world is becoming more and more open towards shorter models.
Anne Taylor no honey sara is 5’6/5 as tall as me. I know my body proportion, sara is exactly the same. Specially comparing to other people. Agencies always lie about their models height. Even the ones that are already tall. Celebheights.com is a much better source.
Érica Congo if your reliable source is google, then sara is 5’9. Her agency and herself say so. But I’ve been in this industry long enough to know if there’s one thing that you shouldn’t trust in fashion industry is models heights. Bella hadid is 173/4 range and if you see a pic of her next to sara you’ll get my point. + I’m not saying it’s a bad thing that sara is shorter in fact It’s exactly the opposite.
I think in this day and age, there should be more inclusivity as far as height goes. It’s a shame that in order to get that, some sort of ruckus has to be made in order to see results. There are fiercely beautiful short people who deserve to represent the diverse body shapes and sizes that people realistically have (as we know). We’ve seen a break from uniformity on the runway with more racial diversity, even size, (all of which I’ve been feverishly rooting for) but when will we see someone just breaking 5’0” setting the runway ablaze? Print work is cool and all, if that’s even a realistic option, but I just want to see someone my height strutting down the runway. Whatever gender. Not by industry standards of “short”, but proper short people. I’m sorry if this comment came off aggressive, but it’s kind of this backhanded compliment, “yOu CoUlD bE a MoDeL iF yOu WeRe TaLlEr”, that just...thank you, but now what? Lol. Let us in, we won’t let you down.
@@kimberlystone9827 Definitely am aware of that, but it is more common for an aspiring model to not get a job for being too short than being too tall. Average height for men is 5'6", but minimum (short for them) 6' tall for a male model. Most are 6'2". Average height for women is 5'2", but minimum (short for them) 5'9". Designers at large fit their clothes for those figures. I'm sure there are exceptionally taller people who will get passed on, but some are made an exception if they have a special look, and can be used in specific facets of the industry - be it runway or commercial, whatever is needed. But, for short people, there isn't a glimmer of hope. In any facet of modeling in the fashion industry. We can't even do print because the clothes aren't made for anyone below average in height and measurements. Which measurements are a whole other rant. But yes, I'll extend the claim for the exceptionally tallER, as well. Lol.
Thank you, someone said it. I’ve been wanting to break out into modeling for essentially most of my life but I’m only 5’1. We need some more representation. Like what about the little guy?👉👈🥺 plus is shorties really be out here killing it in pictures and stuff like that. Like give us a chance 😭
@K totally understand your point of view, but I don’t necessarily agree. I believe there’s a lot of dimension that can be provided with people of different statures, and a lot that can be done visually.

This are not their real height. Model agencies lie about models height. Emily Ratajkowski real height is 5'5 and a half, Kate Moss same height, Devon Aoki 5'5, Cara 5'7, Hailey Baldwin 5'6, Sara Sampaio 5'6 and a half, Laetitia Casta 5'6 etc..
for a guy you are already an undersized model with 5'11 or 6'0. the average height for a male model is between 6'1 - 6'2. Tony Ward, Werner Schreyer, Tyson Beck Ford, Bo Develius, Oliver Ceshire, Connor Newall are all between 5'10 - 5'11,5 and considered short male models.

Comment section is filled with negativity. Well they have their opinion but mine is i'm not gonna give up. I'm 5'8 asian girl and my age is 18(*luckily gonna be 19 this year*). I'm passionate about my modelling as a career and i'm confident i'll get sign up by reputable agency but after this pandemic i guess!♥️♥️
Riri rommie quarantine is a good time to try to get a agency because since we are in quarantine they are working from home and scouting online, so why wait? right now is your time to get signed!
Yeahh you acc have a chance To be a runway model but for the rest of us,.. 5”5 and down its highly unrealistic without connections. We aren’t being negative just realistic. Besides,😋 Commercial modelling pays the best and is super fun!! so dont lose hope guys!!
@@mikaelavallari2782 She's not. That's what google says because model agencies lie. Compared to other models that are actually 1.72/1.73 she looks pretty short. I'd say she's 1.67/5.6
if you can’t do modeling as an adult maybe you could try as a kid if you’re still young enough. Natalie Portman was scouted for modeling when she was like 11 but went into acting, she’s 5”3 now
I'm 5'7" & have some features a lot of agents look for (low key like an alien lmao), so i'm hoping i'd have a shot in this career. But i know there's little chance of success in runway which kinda sucks bc thats one part i'd really love doing, campaigns would be sick though too
Cara Delevigne is actually 5.8 not 5.7. Selita Ebanks is actually 5.9 not 5.8. But here are some other shorter successful models: Laetitia Casta, Sara Sampaio, Gia Carangi, Jenny Shimizu, Jaime King, Kiara Kabukuru, Marissa Miller, Lydia Hearst.
Cara, Selita, and Luka are all marketed taller to get more jobs. For instance I’m 6’3, but one of my agencies list me as 6’2, when I asked her why she explained that 6’1 and 6’2 are the most booked height for male models.
There aren't many "short models " In the industry 😟. I m so happy n proud that now plus-sized models are getting the recognition n respect in the industry ☺ but there aren't many short models which I can look up to😟. There are so many people who have the talent to be model n dream to be model but are cut off just because they are short. I hope their will be changes in the FUTURE (Edit: That's just my opinion n view . The people in the comment section, if you don't like the "change in the industry thing " then just leave n don't even reply) 😊
@@kombuchalover8445 wats wrong with trying to change it? Supermodels like Ashley Graham have paved way for plus sized models. There's nothing wrong with trying to changed it n you can't stop someone n just tell them to find something else 😊. Thats direct discouragement n rude.
I’m 4”11 and I’ll never be able to model. But I always wanted too because I have very curly hair I think it would photograph well. And as a Young child I modeled
In this day and age, Instagram feels like the way to go for people who don't fit in the typical modeling standards but are photogenic. Learn to take your own pictures and you might get there via Instagram fame
I love modeling and doing photoshoots. I feel like I have a great face and body, skinny yet curvy, long legs, model material for sure and I know I could work it, BUT I’m 5ft4 😖 I’m like a miniature model... not fair because I can’t actually pursue it in anything high fashion... also I’m 25 which to me feels super young and like I’m just becoming a true adult, but apparently in this industry it’s older... weird It’s ok I’m still going to work it in life and do my own photoshoots 😍
One on oversized models would be interesting? We have an even tougher time since clothes never fit us haha and commercial modeling can be tough because of relativity. (I'm 6'10)
@@FreshPepper hey pepper can u do a video about how to know the different kinds of looks agencies search while scouting that is different from their roster in order to be signed?I remember u said if you look the same with models they have they won't b interested.Can u dive in depth in that like face symmetry or eyes, beards.Thank u
@@goodprowealth8087 yeah, I've modeled myself at 6'10 but it would either be for pieces that are one size fit all, tailored to me specifically or commercial modeling as I am an athlete. I was able to leverage popularity to get those rare gigs but similarly to people that are too overweight or short, individuals that are too tall also have difficulties because they will not fit the clothing but there are always exceptions.
I’m 10 years old and I have wanted to be a model since I was about 5 years old. I love trying on new clothes and walking around like I’m in a fashion show. I’m obviously very short cause I’m young (I’m 4’8). I hope that my hard work pays off and I become a well known and talented model. But only time will tell, cause I don’t know if I will be that tall
Apparently swimwear/underwear models tend to be on the shorter side because the proportions and fat distribution are generally different. For runway I think you need a very demanding presence, and height gives you that. So I think if you don't have the height you need other striking features to grab people's attention. These shorter models have amazing faces (and hair!!) meaning the lack of hight doesn't make them pass by unnoticed :))
Honestly, I thought I had no hope when I stopped growing at 12, but I stumbled on Growtaller 4 idiots and found that my HGH is still active and grew 3 inches this quarantine yayyy, so don't lose hope guys😀💕💕🙌
Chill you can do various kind of modelling... Height matter in modelling according to country to country average height requirement 😊.. 5ft 1 inches or above photoshoot model.. 5ft 2 inches or above commercial model.... 5ft6 and above runway model.... Their many kind of modelling . Its depends upon whats your country average height because every country has different standards😊 When you become well established name in any modelling industry you can also do runway modelling... Because in india actresses are below 5ft5 but still do runway modelling......😊
I'm attractive but too short to be a male model (5'8) lol. Women have always told me I should "model" but I get intimidated by the height requirements. Yikes.
I was short for my age till 9 th class I was 4.9 in 9 th class but after 9 th class my height growed very fast .and being short was not a problem for me .I miss that moment of being short
Nice job! Your content gets better and better, good research here! Can't wait until you start interviewing more models on your channel! As we can see, your, video is about High Fashion Modelling! The type of modeling most people dream of.
Requirement number one for models is height, don't give anybody wrong hopes, it's practically impossible for someone below minimum height to become a model
That only applies to high fashion or runway models. There are so many types of modeling that don’t care what height you are. Look at Emily Ratajkowski for instance, she couldn’t get on the runway but she’s still having a successful career doing other categories of modeling
Couldn't agree more, I work in the industry and I'm going to be honest and some people might hate what I have to say. One you are correct about giving false hope because the likely hood of a short girl getting signed more than likely not going to happen especially for fashion. These girls usually have a parent or someone in their lives that already work in the industry that can get them in. 2 this whole plus models are getting a look in again it's not true they're making you believe that by putting one plus size in front everyone but really its not the case. Agencies and clients still want tall slim girls and guys otherwise it's a no
@Island Roena agree they have but again those short girls never guys by the way have someone influenceial in their lives that already work in the industry that are able to position those girls with the right clients
I'd have to say swimsuit modelling. Runway is the lowest paying modelling gig within the modelling choices. But, runways are a great experience. So either tbh, just depends on where you want to be financially.
How can you forget Sasha Pivovarova who booked multiple Vogue Italia covers and dominated the runways in the early and late 2000s. Except Cara, the mentioned models wont even come close to Sasha's achievements.
5'6" and 5'5" are considered average woman heights. 5"8.5" is considered tall for a woman. They might include height wearing shoes to make them appear taller. Libbie Depp was the only one that would even be considered short by most people at 5'3" even then would barely be considered short as not at all unusual.
There is also Georgia May Jagger who is 5.6 or 5.7 - but then her parents are Jerry Hall and MICK JAGGER!!!!! So she would have been a model no matter what her size cause of her connections, which is so unfair but true! I don't really count nepotism models as real models - apart from maybe Kaia Gerber and her brother who are STUNNING and actually the right measurements to be high fashion models.
I'm considered short in the model world ( as well as the real world) but I think height difference between models makes photo shoots waaaaayyyyyy cooler (if you are wondering ,which you probably arent, I'm 5'2)
I used to want to be a model and wished I was taller and thought 5’7 was too small. Now as a 37 yo woman trying to date men I wish I was petite as men constantly tell me I’m too tall. Pretty crappy
I’m 5’3 and got signed 🤷♀️

I really thought Cara was taller and I can say that being slim also makes you look taller. Kate Moss is 5’6” but, maybe 110lbs .

Unfortunately a lot of these are outliers. The average short person doesn’t have the unique look or connections to pass standard modeling requirements

Comment section is filled with negativity. Well they have their opinion but mine is i'm not gonna give up. I'm 5'8 asian girl and my age is 18(*luckily gonna be 19 this year*). I'm passionate about my modelling as a career and i'm confident i'll get sign up by reputable agency but after this pandemic i guess!♥️♥️
Riri rommie yasss keep going girl! hard work pays off🔥
@@noora4942 thank you❤🙏🏽
Go girl, I admire your determination 👍
Riri rommie quarantine is a good time to try to get a agency because since we are in quarantine they are working from home and scouting online, so why wait? right now is your time to get signed!
Yeahh you acc have a chance To be a runway model but for the rest of us,.. 5”5 and down its highly unrealistic without connections. We aren’t being negative just realistic. Besides,😋 Commercial modelling pays the best and is super fun!! so dont lose hope guys!!
*smirks in 5’6* I have hope 😁
Friend: how does it feel to be so close yet so far?
Me: cries in 5'8
Me too, but am signed already ❤️❤️❤️😇
Barbara Palvin is short too. She's like 5'7.
Sara Sampaio is 5'6 and a half...
Actually Sara is 172 cm so in feet it is 5’7- 5’8
@@mikaelavallari2782 She's not. That's what google says because model agencies lie. Compared to other models that are actually 1.72/1.73 she looks pretty short. I'd say she's 1.67/5.6
if you can’t do modeling as an adult maybe you could try as a kid if you’re still young enough. Natalie Portman was scouted for modeling when she was like 11 but went into acting, she’s 5”3 now
Cries in 5’0 plus I’m “overweight” for my height 😩😩
Modelling is a very tough job..
I'm 5"0, theres no hope.
Yes there is, I'm 5'3 and I believe there's nothing impossible
I'm a model but I am 5'4
I wanna do runway though!
DO IT
What type of model are you?
I’m 6ft flat and still be feeling too short, especially at castings with other models that are 6’4 and up...
I'm 5'7" & have some features a lot of agents look for (low key like an alien lmao), so i'm hoping i'd have a shot in this career. But i know there's little chance of success in runway which kinda sucks bc thats one part i'd really love doing, campaigns would be sick though too
it does seem like all of them have connections or started really young, i'm looking to get into the industry in college but idk if that's just too old
Shorter males that are like 5’9 can apply for the androgynous type of modeling
Selita Ebanks and Marisa Miller are two and only short supermodel’s you need to know and never forget.
Cara Delevigne is actually 5.8 not 5.7. Selita Ebanks is actually 5.9 not 5.8. But here are some other shorter successful models: Laetitia Casta, Sara Sampaio, Gia Carangi, Jenny Shimizu, Jaime King, Kiara Kabukuru, Marissa Miller, Lydia Hearst.
Cara, Selita, and Luka are all marketed taller to get more jobs. For instance I’m 6’3, but one of my agencies list me as 6’2, when I asked her why she explained that 6’1 and 6’2 are the most booked height for male models.
5’7 it is tall for a woman in the real word but in modelling is quiet short!
There aren't many "short models " In the industry 😟. I m so happy n proud that now plus-sized models are getting the recognition n respect in the industry ☺ but there aren't many short models which I can look up to😟. There are so many people who have the talent to be model n dream to be model but are cut off just because they are short. I hope their will be changes in the FUTURE
(Edit: That's just my opinion n view . The people in the comment section, if you don't like the "change in the industry thing " then just leave n don't even reply) 😊
Melur Rongpipi you mean plus sized women models.. where are all the plus sized men modeling?
Certified Tyrone there are plus size for men but just a few
john sinar exactly my point “just a few”
Stop trying to change the modelling industry and find something else..
@@kombuchalover8445 wats wrong with trying to change it? Supermodels like Ashley Graham have paved way for plus sized models. There's nothing wrong with trying to changed it n you can't stop someone n just tell them to find something else 😊. Thats direct discouragement n rude.
I’m 4”11 and I’ll never be able to model. But I always wanted too because I have very curly hair I think it would photograph well. And as a Young child I modeled
In this day and age, Instagram feels like the way to go for people who don't fit in the typical modeling standards but are photogenic. Learn to take your own pictures and you might get there via Instagram fame
@@DaLionessGirl true!!
I C I Models sign all types of models
Me : watching this video with a rapt attention
Also me : barely 5', not even close to a model body, never even interested in modeling 😂
I love modeling and doing photoshoots. I feel like I have a great face and body, skinny yet curvy, long legs, model material for sure and I know I could work it, BUT I’m 5ft4 😖 I’m like a miniature model... not fair because I can’t actually pursue it in anything high fashion... also I’m 25 which to me feels super young and like I’m just becoming a true adult, but apparently in this industry it’s older... weird
It’s ok I’m still going to work it in life and do my own photoshoots 😍
Wish you the Best 💛😁
Karruche Tran is under 5'5 and is signed to a well known modeling agency & transitioned into acting.
What agency pls
Man,if cara delevingne is short standing at the height of 5'8,then what am I actually?
“Sounds fire” 😂
😅
Dorcas Orebiyi me too I watched him on grownish and his character says it all the time lol😂
One on oversized models would be interesting? We have an even tougher time since clothes never fit us haha and commercial modeling can be tough because of relativity. (I'm 6'10)
Khalil Brown working on this soon
I know someone who does modelling and he is 6'8.Not sure if he's doing commercial though
@@FreshPepper hey pepper can u do a video about how to know the different kinds of looks agencies search while scouting that is different from their roster in order to be signed?I remember u said if you look the same with models they have they won't b interested.Can u dive in depth in that like face symmetry or eyes, beards.Thank u
@@goodprowealth8087 yeah, I've modeled myself at 6'10 but it would either be for pieces that are one size fit all, tailored to me specifically or commercial modeling as I am an athlete. I was able to leverage popularity to get those rare gigs but similarly to people that are too overweight or short, individuals that are too tall also have difficulties because they will not fit the clothing but there are always exceptions.
I’m 10 years old and I have wanted to be a model since I was about 5 years old. I love trying on new clothes and walking around like I’m in a fashion show. I’m obviously very short cause I’m young (I’m 4’8). I hope that my hard work pays off and I become a well known and talented model. But only time will tell, cause I don’t know if I will be that tall
Apparently swimwear/underwear models tend to be on the shorter side because the proportions and fat distribution are generally different.
For runway I think you need a very demanding presence, and height gives you that. So I think if you don't have the height you need other striking features to grab people's attention. These shorter models have amazing faces (and hair!!) meaning the lack of hight doesn't make them pass by unnoticed :))
Thanks for this ❤️
Honestly, I thought I had no hope when I stopped growing at 12, but I stumbled on Growtaller 4 idiots and found that my HGH is still active and grew 3 inches this quarantine yayyy, so don't lose hope guys😀💕💕🙌
Chill you can do various kind of
modelling...
Height matter in modelling according to country to country average height requirement 😊..
5ft 1 inches or above photoshoot model..
5ft 2 inches or above commercial model....
5ft6 and above runway model....
Their many kind of modelling .
Its depends upon whats your country average height because every country has different standards😊
When you become well established name in any modelling industry you can also do runway modelling...
Because in india actresses are below 5ft5 but still do runway modelling......😊
Pretty accurate!! I was looking for this and popped up in my feed!! Thanks ♥️
I'm attractive but too short to be a male model (5'8) lol. Women have always told me I should "model" but I get intimidated by the height requirements. Yikes.
I hope so to become a famous and rich model
Me being 5’5 I clicked on this thinking I would see models under 5’7. Most of those models are mainly taller.
Even I thought but I guess in modelling slightly below average is really short.
what about sara sampaio ??? she is 5"7 and considered one of the most succesful model in the industry !!!
You are amazing and even inspired me to create a channel/model!
Thank you 🙏🏾, I’ll check out your channel
Isabella mathers is 5’6 and she is extremely successful and beautiful!
I still have faith that one day I'll be a model.
I'm so glad u made a video about short models
Great content as usual💯
Thanks man
i'm 5'3 and recently got signed to a mother agent and now have other modelling agencies following me
I saw luka before in the city this was before he was gonna go to model for yeezy fashion show I said hi and he said hi back
How tall would you say he is?
This accurate like 5'9 ish I'm 5'5
I was short for my age till 9 th class I was 4.9 in 9 th class but after 9 th class my height growed very fast .and being short was not a problem for me .I miss that moment of being short
Thank you from someone who is 5'7" and wants to model 😂
Cara isn't 5'7. She is 5'8. I've seen her in person!
Nice job! Your content gets better and better, good research here! Can't wait until you start interviewing more models on your channel! As we can see, your, video is about High Fashion Modelling! The type of modeling most people dream of.
Being 4'11 It would Be A *MIRACLE* To Get Into This Modelling Industry.
W. O. W!!
i thought there was a chance for me (5'3'' ) to be a model lollllll
Requirement number one for models is height, don't give anybody wrong hopes, it's practically impossible for someone below minimum height to become a model
That only applies to high fashion or runway models. There are so many types of modeling that don’t care what height you are. Look at Emily Ratajkowski for instance, she couldn’t get on the runway but she’s still having a successful career doing other categories of modeling
Couldn't agree more, I work in the industry and I'm going to be honest and some people might hate what I have to say. One you are correct about giving false hope because the likely hood of a short girl getting signed more than likely not going to happen especially for fashion. These girls usually have a parent or someone in their lives that already work in the industry that can get them in. 2 this whole plus models are getting a look in again it's not true they're making you believe that by putting one plus size in front everyone but really its not the case. Agencies and clients still want tall slim girls and guys otherwise it's a no
@Island Roena agree they have but again those short girls never guys by the way have someone influenceial in their lives that already work in the industry that are able to position those girls with the right clients
Question for the comment section
What’s better
Swimsuit modelling or Runway modelling
I’m 6’3 and I wanted to try and dip my toes in modelling
I'd have to say swimsuit modelling. Runway is the lowest paying modelling gig within the modelling choices. But, runways are a great experience. So either tbh, just depends on where you want to be financially.
💯
Apparently cara’s actual height is 171cm
How can you forget Sasha Pivovarova who booked multiple Vogue Italia covers and dominated the runways in the early and late 2000s. Except Cara, the mentioned models wont even come close to Sasha's achievements.
i have an awkward height. i’m not short per se but i’m not tall. i’m 5’4. but i guess we a model i’d be short
Please make a luka sabbat video
Model agencies very often add an inch to your real height. Kate Moss is 5'5.5, Sara Sampaio 5'6, Lily Depp 5'3, Laetitia Casta 5'6...
I’m 4,7 and Really grateful for Instagram because I’d never get anywhere if it wasn’t for that.
5'6" and 5'5" are considered average woman heights. 5"8.5" is considered tall for a woman. They might include height wearing shoes to make them appear taller. Libbie Depp was the only one that would even be considered short by most people at 5'3" even then would barely be considered short as not at all unusual.
I'm 4'9.5... and 19 years old...
I'm 5'6 and I'm 16y, I would love to be a runway model. Hopefully I can get to 5'7 or more
i'm 5'8 going on 26 i think i have no chances but modeling is something i always dreamed about , that's so sad.
sarah latif start on ig
There is also Georgia May Jagger who is 5.6 or 5.7 - but then her parents are Jerry Hall and MICK JAGGER!!!!! So she would have been a model no matter what her size cause of her connections, which is so unfair but true! I don't really count nepotism models as real models - apart from maybe Kaia Gerber and her brother who are STUNNING and actually the right measurements to be high fashion models.
Awesome video... love learning sth new
I’m 5’3 and I want to be a model, I was not sure but after watching this it give a confidence boost
Dude, thank you for inspiring tho I'm only 5'8. But yeah there are a lot of short models. ❤️
It's okay if you're short for modeling, but you must have the features of a model.
I'm considered short in the model world ( as well as the real world) but I think height difference between models makes photo shoots waaaaayyyyyy cooler (if you are wondering ,which you probably arent, I'm 5'2)
mekhi lucky was discovered through his mugshot. i really need to start taking photos of myself if i wanna be discovered.
I am only 5.1"!!!! But heavily interested and passionate about still/print modelling... 😢
same girlll
But the one's he's calling short are taller than me
I used to want to be a model and wished I was taller and thought 5’7 was too small. Now as a 37 yo woman trying to date men I wish I was petite as men constantly tell me I’m too tall. Pretty crappy
I'm a 5'8 male and wish I was 1-2 inches taller so ik your pain. Men also get excluded from dating for being under a certain height lol
Hello.. I'm a Plus size in Nigeria I would love to go into modeling(its been my dream) I'm 5'9.. I would love if you could guide me❤
"Sounds fire" always love it when Luka says that on grownish or when he says "that's looks fire"
