Editorial
and High Fashion Modeling
by Bob
Pardue
High fashion and editorial modeling
are the categories most models know best; probably because
these are the most glamourous (and sought after) positions
in the modeling industry.
Although the pay is relatively low
($100-$300 per day), you'll gain exposure in this field and
get pages from campaigns (tear sheets) to use when
contacting other agencies or clients.
Tear sheets are a valuable addition to
your model portfolio book as they prove that you are capable
and have been working as a model.
Physical
Requirements
For high fashion
modeling:
Women:
5' 9" to 6' tall with the norm being
about 120-123 lbs for a 5' 9" model
Bust: 32-35"
Waist: 22-25
Hips: 33-36
Men:
6' to 6' 1"
Jacket: 40-42R
Waist: 32"
Inseam: 32"
To be a high fashion model you need a
very distinctive and exciting look. You'll find most high
fashion models living in New York. Be ready to travel and
stay away from home if you choose high fashion as your
modeling career.
As you may have already gathered, high
fashion modeling is not for everyone; especially the home
bodies.
