I think you should wait two more years to find out by yourself.

Hi Glamorette,

I really wouldn't get too hung up about your height, you will probably gain a few more inches yet before you stop growing. Obviously it would be misleading to say that height is not an issue but it's only one facet of what goes to make up a successful career in modelling. In my opinion luck plays the largest role.
If you haven't seen the previous forum thread, here is the spread of the model's heights in the FMD model directory...

6 models at 6' 0"
212 models at 5' 11"
96 models at 5' 10"
69 models at 5' 9"
24 models at 5' 8"
18 models at 5' 7"
3 models at 5' 6"
3 models at 5' 5"
1 model at 5' 4"
1 model at 5' 3"

Good luck,
