Being A Model In 2023
Have you ever wondered what it’s really like being a model? And if it’s important for a models to go through the torture to be extra skinny and lanky.
The modeling industry is a very difficult one to penetrate. According to Melissa Keen of the UK models, the height requirements are 5.9 for female and 5.11 for male respectively. And nowadays, it’s even more difficult, however, beauty standards is gradually changing from looks to personality which is why oumackson.com concentrates on the personality of our potential models.
Runway models must measure precisely 34 inches around the bust, 23 inches around the waist and 34 inches around the hips making it very strict with unreasonable standards making it very hard to get in
Some models eat as little as a stick of celery and two grapes for a whole day, just to maintain the shape and size believed to be perfect for modeling. Anna Schaefer who is a blogger and fashion writer stated that some female models go as far as eating cotton balls flavoured with juice as diet to stay dangerously thin in the name of fashion.
Asides the heavy re-touching edit that is usually done on models photos, some models get their ears superglued back when the photographer believes it’s stuck out a bit too much or even go through the knives to have a desired look. Models like Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid who we consider to be some of the most beautiful models in the world also used plastic surgeries to enhance their looks.
These are to mention but a few compared to what they really face in the course of a shoot.
