Hi

I like your measurements and your body, but your height might be a problem, 172 is quite small. Of course there are some models signed at the big agencies who are as tall as youare, but that's very rare.
Another thing is your face, that looks pretty neutral to me, not really model-like - but pretty.
I could give you the advice now, "try commercial modelling", but I think that would be just whitewash.
I wish you all the best

I agree with Reeyo. I think you have potential, maybe not in high fashion but in commercial modelling. You should try in commercial

I disagree. I think high-fashion is better for you than commercial modeling. You are very photogenic, i adore your third picture - very beautiful and unique face. Smile

Hi Julishka,

you remind me a bit of Vlada, you have long skinny legs, a small waist, nice womanly boobs.
But i think you really are a bit short.
For high fashion you had to be much thinner than Vlada and that would not be good for your health.
You should try commercial - or just see modelling as a dream.

Her hips are 86 cm, and see look very slim, i'm sure, she doesn't need to lose weight and doesn't have to be thinner for high fashion.

WellHello, who the hell are you to tell this girl that she is too short too be a model. Honestly just shut up if you don't know. At first she's very beautiful and if you don't think so and you are too chickenhearted to tell to her, instead you tell that she is too short, but she is not.
And do not even try for commercial thing, it's a bullshit, really. And you are TOO beautiful for it. Don't waste you time, and try real modelling. You have really special appearance and I really like it, You are really natural and that make you special, because I can say that every person will look good with make up and photoshop, you are beautiful without it, so if you want to be a model then be and don't care about others opinion, they're just jealous. PS! You're gorgeous!!

I didnt see anyone saying anything you highlighted ... JUST SERIOUSLY BAD ADVICE FROM SUPERFASHION.

Julia you are a lovely and very pretty girl I'm just not sure whether you have the model gene or not. Don't go for Commercial you do not have a commercial look for me, even though commercial modelling is proper modelling Wink

i dont think it's for you. You are seventeen so I dont know whether you will grow any taller. Unfortunately you are a teensy litle bit small at 5 ft 7.5 but you are so close to 5 ft 8 I dont see why an agency wouldnt look at you. I definately think if you went to an agency they would want to take a few test shots and if they signed you they would make you 5 ft 8 anyway. But never lie about your measurements or height.

I say go for it but go in with your eyes wide open Very Happy

Dont listen to bad advice either you do not need to be any skinnier your body is fine in the natural state it is in. And you do not need to be skinnier than Vlada to be a blooming High Fashion model that is just ridiculous. You dont even have to be as skinny as her ... I think 36 hip is max as long as it is bone ... in short you have to be perfect. But dont concern yourself with this at this stage I mean you are 32-23-34.5 for goodness sake .. that is near damn perfect for me Very Happy

. Just be careful and good luck xxx

Looks like a photo from a catalog!
You're very pretty, you should show your pictures to an agency.

(Just my opinion, i think you would look perfect without bangs )
