    Modeling is no joke. You have to sell yourself everyday. You have to take it seriously enough to maintain your body, mind, and spirit.
    Also, get into a great agency that is in the top 10 and work hard.

      Italy sucks. I lived there for one year and it was the worst experience of my life people are so unfriendly. I didn’t went for work i literally moved there bc studies and had to move back to my country cause i develop depression. So i blame the country and the people there lol it feels so alone really.

      Silvana Vizcarra it doesn’t suck, it’s full of beauty and saying “people are unfriendly” is too general. I live in Italy and I think that it’s a country rich in variety, you just have to find the right people and the right place for you.

      Taylor Hall I actually had no idea Kendall was a privileged model .I saw her for some campaign and I was like WHO IS THIS GIRL SHE’S FREAKING GORGEOUS. After reading more into it,I seriously feel bad for Kendall.It’s not her fault for being in a rich family and want to be a model. Sure in some ways she has it easier..but it’s not fair to compare her to other models for something she was simply born into.. She has a mother who would do anything to make her comfortable..I’m pretty sure ANY mother would do that for their model daughters if they had the chance. It’s the brands after all who choose to book her for campaigns and shows. Blame them ,not her.She just does the job.

      RandomIsMyLif3 LOL, you’re just as attractive as she was before she became a model. Frankly, I’m always amazed by the before and after photos of people who’ve made it, as well as by the makeup-free photos of the ones who have. It gives me so much respect for the people who discover/sign new talent. They see potential in people that I wouldn’t even notice unless I was looking for it. Makes you wonder how hot everyone would be if we all had the same lifestyle. I also think that it’s interesting to realize from watching these videos that being a ten doesn’t necessarily mean that people treat you with more respect. I can guarantee that she still gets guys who aren’t in her league treating her like crap, as if she even cares about their negging 🤦🏼‍♀️. Like, they should be kissing her feet, but it doesn’t work that way.

      @Charles Darwin I don't think the proportions of a model is very uncommon. The measurements aren't rare at all. I'm sure a lot of people who aren't models have similar proportions too. Even some fashion models themselves don't have the ideal proportions.

    I mean this sounds super positive and inspirational. But I think you should be more careful of what you are putting out there considering there are young impressionable girls following you. The reality for most the model industry is grim; constantly being told to lose "inches" even when you are already looking anorexic, sexual harassment and objectification, spending weeks of just going to castings and not much comes out of it - a mediocre salary at best. In 2012 a survey was conducted by the Model Alliance and it revealed that 70% of the 85 female US models were suffering from depression & anxiety and 2/3 got told to lose weight. Georgina Wilkin, Taylor Allard; luckily some are actually talking about the ugly truth. There are very few who are lucky to have made it to the top and maybe even avoided all of that, but that's not representative of the model industry as a whole.

    I loved being at a small agency, I was with Willow Models for 3 years. They were very kind and seem to personally want you to succeed and work with you one on one!

    Thank you so much for this vlog. You'll never know what this vlog means to me. It really motivated me. I've been trying to become a model since like 2016 but i got rejected because of my height. But i really didn't give up. One day i am really gonna become a model, because this is what i want, i'll chase it until i get it. Once again thank you so much for this vlog.

    I know that the modelling industry is just so harsh and cruel but your advice given is helpful and realistic enough. Hope that what you said can be spread and stop some younger girls from destroying their future instead of rushing through.

    This was such an inspiring story! It’s true, we have to always believe in ourselves and along with hard work, that’s how we achieve our dreams. I aspire that one day I will have a success story to tell too. There were times when I doubted myself but you reminded me to never stop trying. Thanks Devon! Hoping to see you in this year’s vsfs! xx

    This was a great story, Devon! I watched it all and appreciate you sharing with us! I do have questions though:
    1) Do all models have to stay in the horrid modeling apartments I keep hearing about?
    2)I'm a dude so would you say that male models "have" to be skinny and tall as well or toned? I mean as a fashion model fyi.
    3) How long would you say (in years) it took for your career to "take off"?
    4) Did you do any other jobs between modeling gigs? If so, what?
    I liked ur video and just may subscribe too...;)

    So interesting hearing your experiences, a lovely honest and genuine video :) I'm currently going through the agency scouting process again after my mother agency shut down, feels so strange to be looking for another agent 7 years in! I've been struggling with the decision of who to go with, but I love your advice of going with however is on the same page as you. Thanks!

I’m modeling and working my way up (recently signed in NY) and I love to watch/hear models talk about their paths so I have a better understanding of the industry and what can happen. Devon you are a fabulous model and always rock the VS runway, best of luck moving forward with your career!

    Hey Devon, do you know whether it is a good age to sign with an agency for the first time at 21, or is that too old to become successful as a model (considering most start young)? I am 18 years old, and school is really important to me, and I want to go to Stanford but cannot do Stanford University and modeling at the same time. I was wondering if I could model after graduating college.
