AskAllie answered Sunday August 19 2007, 1:22 pm: Most models are tall (5'7" or more) and very thin. If you notice, alot of the more serious models are not breathtakingly pretty. If you watch America's Next Top Model, you would know what modeling isn't just a pretty face, it's more about confidence and taking good pictures.
However, for modeling clothes in catalogues for instance, most models are thin and tall. It's mostly about making the clothes look good and appealing.
I would do a google search for the websites. But be careful about the website and make sure the company is a legitimate modeling company, a lot of websites on the internet are scams/inappropriate.
Good luck. =P [ AskAllie's advice column | Ask AskAllie A Question ]
