I was told I could only be a plus sized model. Can someone help me to see if I really am? My dream is to be a model, back up plan is nursing. I am: 5'2. chest: 32 Waist: 25 Hips: 35 I weigh: 135. I have a short curvy frame, I have been told I'm an hour glass figure. I tried to become a model but the woman told me I am too "large" to be a petite. Would I be able to be a plus sized model? I would imagine that I am too short for it.

I would love to be one aswell.I wanted to be a model and had chances when I was smaller and younger but now at a size 16 (Which I love the size I am now) I would just be the happiest woman in the world to show that real women have curves.

This is what I want to do, but I'm like 5'7'' and 3/4. :( Maybe if they like me enough they'll give me a break. I'm actually pretty slender considering my frame even though at me smallest I'm about a size 13 (which was not a healthy size for me because I was sick so I'd rather not go back to it).

Thank you my dear friend. You're a lovely person yourself. Love you
-

It would surely be a blessing if I can get noticed and become a Plus size model.

It is also important for women to exercise and diet properly to look their best. Many women mistakenly think exercising will make them a size two. You and exercise and diet properly while maintaining the curves we all love.

Just know that you have to be photogenic, and have a certain unique style. Model Search America is one that I went to, and they teach you how to walk the runway (or at least improve), and have seminars from real models and actors. They also explain that you could do print modeling locally. If you do go to conventions, make sure you get pictures - that gives you an extra boost when visiting agencies, because they will see that you have at least a little bit of experience over someone who has never done anything or tried to do anything before.

Send your photos to agencies online. Most agencies accept online submissions. There is no need to pay $400 to pro scout to discover you. If you are really interested try posting a profile on a free website. There are also many photographers that are willing to do TFP shoots (time for photos) that can help you build a portfolio for free. Programs like pro scouts just build up false hopes. They tell almost everyone that they could be a model or an actor without even seeing how you photograph or act. Yes, they will put you in front of agents, but often not the big agencies that they promise. Save your money, go to free casting calls. Hook up with a good photographer, if you have what it takes they will help you for free.

I went to ProScout twice, and I learned so much from them. Before I went, I had never been on a runway and I had never had such great constructive criticism of my acting/monologues. If you get picked up at the open call, it's because they think you have something special. Both times I've gone, I've gotten callbacks from acting agencies and from modeling ones. I'm currently building my portfolio for modeling while in college. Trust me, it's an experience you won't get anywhere else.

If you have loads of experience you probably don't need to take classes. However, if you are a consummate novice, you may want to take runway, and posing classes. As a plus-size model, I found the runway class a huge help to me. I've been hired for almost all of the bridal shows when they have needed plus size models.

Unless you are the most beautiful guy or the tallest girl in your town, don't bother with modeling conventions such as Proscout or Manhattan Model Search. I've been to both in Chicago. Though it was a lot of fun, unless you want to spend around $1000 traveling there, hotel fees, registration, ect., don't use this as a way to break into the modeling business.
