I should be 5'7'' by the age of 14.. Smile Which is good news for me. Unfortunately you would be too short and its very difficult to get signed unless you have a certain look at your height sorry.

commerical modeling=5'6" (however if you have a great look you can get away with being 5'5")
editorial modeling=5'9" (however if again, you have a great look you can get by with 5'8" tall)

For New York fashion agencies, if you're around 14 years old, 5'7" is about the minimum to get signed, but you won't get much work until you grow a bit (or go to Japan).

If you're closer to 17/18 years old, you'll need to be 5'8" (they'll probably write 5'9" on your comp card and hope no one notices) minimum for fashion runway work.

6'2" is really the maximum for women on the runway. One of my favorite models, Dasha (see two of her rough test pics below), is 6'3" and actually too tall. She is fantastic for pictures though.

It's a brutal standard, but basically you have to (1) be tall enough to be seen over peoples heads from the back row seats at a fashion show and (2) you have to fit the samples.



Im 20, 5'7 ....So, Do I have a chace bein model? Im from Bangkok,Thailand!


thx inadvance
