Answer #1

You have to be a size -8.

No, actually…this is what I found online.

Catwalk 5’9” - 6 foot Bust 32”-36” Waist 22”-26” Hips 33”-35”

Catalogue 5’8” -5’9”‘ Bust 32”-34” Waist 24”-26” Hips 33”-35”

Lingerie 5’7” - 6 foot Bust 32”-35” C cup Waist 22”-26” Hips 33”-35”

Yeah, it’s pretty gross.

Answer #2

a lot of people make this strange assumption that models have to fall under some sort of model code where they have to be under such and such size, and look in such and such a way. I really dont understand where people get these crazy numbers and measurements, I digress. Theres no written code or specific size for modeling

whether or not you Book the photoshoot or the runway gig is all in the hands of the desighner, if they feel you look good in the clothes and you have the look that they want then thats up to them. everyday you see clothes brands and companies for women and men of all sizes and shapes and a stick figure model isnt gonna look good with a plus size desighner but might look good for another it varies from desighner to desighner on what they want.
