Types of Modeling - Female Beauty and Glamour Models

Become a Beauty and Glamour Model

Beauty Models

Beauty is for advertising makeup and like products so your body type is not as important. It is crucial, however, to have a beautiful face with an almost flawless complexion. Even if you decide you want to be a beauty model it's still a wise choice to tone your body for other types of modeling so that you don't limit yourself.

Glamour Models

It is critical that you have the body type needed for glamour or body modeling. These are the models you see in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Editon or Glamour Magazine. You'll also see glamour models gracing the pages of Victoria's Secret catalog.

Look through these or similar books and magazines to see if your body measures up to the emmaculate bodies of these glamour models.

The payscale can vary but keep in mind that the pay is normally doubled for lingerie or nude work. Glamour is very lucrative but evey model is not comfortable with this type of modeling and how much skin they have to show.

My personal advice is to wait until you're at least 21 years old before making a decision to do any type of nude work.

Physical Requirements for Glamour

Height: Not all Important

Bust: 34-B

Waist: 22"-24"

Hips: 34"

You need to be really toned and in great shape to be a glamour or body model. So, get out those barbells or join the local gym today!

When you hear the word glamour what is the first thing you think of? For many people, glamour implies physical beauty, the men and women you see on the pages of fashion magazines and on billboards. But glamour is not only physical beauty, but also the ability to exhibit a commanding presence, and the ability to help people see all sorts of things, even everyday things, in a fairer light.

For example, a female glamour model might do any number of things, from modeling the beauty and elegance of designer clothing, to posing artistically in beautiful homes, to help others picture an elegant, beautiful life that would be possible in such surroundings. 

No matter if you are a young, fresh faced girl, or a glamorous, sexy, sophisticated woman, modeling agencies required a wide variety of individuals to meet their clients’ needs. If you are interested in becoming a female glamour model, your first step would be to see a modeling agency, where you would be able to get advice and career information on the modeling industry.

Watch out for people who would take advantage of your looks and talents, and when agencies begin to take interest in you as a professional, be sure to hire excellent agents, who will help you manage your career. And, of course know that a career as a glamour model can be very rewarding if done correctly.
