A Blueprint for Female Models

Presented by Photographer Bob Pardue

The Way to Look at Female Models

 

People in the USA have a bizarre take on the fashion industry. Especially the females. They watch endless fashion shows and read countless subscriptions to Vogue, Marie Claire, and Mademoiselle, but yet they bad mouth the female models ruthlessly.

 

Why do Women and Girls Trash Female Models?

 

What is it about today's female fashion models? Are they too thin, too attractive, too empty looking, too what? Maybe it's the physical standard they set for the American women. If the average fashion model is a size 2 and the average American woman a size 13, where does that leave general society? Apparently with a lot of weight to shed.

 

Flipping Through Magazines with Girl Models Pictures

 

I was watching my teenage daughter and her two friends flip through fashion magazines yesterday.

 

They spoke about the clothing they liked and desired.

But then they trashed plenty of the female models. I heard comments regarding how skinny the girls are, or how they're probably on drugs. A whole lot of nit-picking.

 

The Female Persona

 

This made me sad, because I know what it means. The girls criticizing them aren't happy with themselves. This is why they point out the supposed flaws of the female models instead. It makes them feel better. I would suppose most people do this to some point.

Fashion Designers and Female Modeling

 

The funny part to me concerns the fashion designers. Girls love their clothing, but trash their models.

 

You should keep in mind that models are so skinny, because the designers demand it.

Tall, Beautiful Girl Models

 

These high fashion designers and their photographers want a tall model with a beautiful and / or exotic look and a thin body that shows off their clothing; not the girls physique. The focus should go to the outfit being presented. This way the audience sees a cool outfit with a pretty face on top.

 

Then the girls imagine that's what the outfits will look like when they wear them. Sad but true.

 

Changes in the Female Modeling Industry

 

The modeling industry is forever changing. You can always spot new female models on the catwalks or in fashion magazines. So if you're looking to get into the business and think you have what it takes, check out the local female talent agencies in your area.

 

Finding Modeling Jobs Online

 

You can also use the Internet to your advantage to contact modeling agencies around the world and send them your photos and stats. There is always room for more male and female models. It's a busy industry.

 

Competition in Female Modeling

 

But, the female model business is also a competitive one so, if you plan to become a girl model make sure you have all the attributes and the tenacity to learn, practice and make agency contacts. These things seem boring but are a reality in the world of successful female modeling. Go for it!!
