Promotional Model:

  • Many clients prefer tall models because they are easier to see in a crowd. However, it is not a definite requirement to be tall.

Art Model:

  • No height requirement for art models

Part’s Model:

  • A particular height is NOT a requirement. Instead, your hands, feet, nails, teeth, neck, arms, legs, etc. could lead to a modeling career as a part’s model!

REMEMBER……..The modeling industry frequently makes exceptions to the height requirements. If someone says you are too short or too tall, don’t listen! Keep following your dream and don’t give up.
