Here are some things to consider.

Every girl wants to be a model one time in there life, however, the modeling industry has STRICT requirements.



Are you 5'9 or over?

Are you in between 100-130 pounds?

Are your measurements around 34-24-34? Only 2 inches can be apart

Are you uniquely beautiful? And not just another blonde ir brunette?



If you are below 5'9, there IS editorial. So don't worry.



Its very hard to break in though. Its brutal, cold-hearted industry that eats you alive. I was once told I was "hideous" and "ugly" right to my face. You have to be not only beautiful, but STRONG and you have to know that "no matter what people say, you are who you are, and your beautiful in your own skin"



Try looking around in your area. Search "modeling agencies in _____(your city) on google.com and see what you find.





:) good luck

If you pick up the new issue of Teen Vogue with Vanessa Hudgens on the cover, there is a contest that says you can submit a photo of yourself from head to toe in one of your favourite outfits and you could win a trip to NYC and model for the magazine! Seventeen magazine is always looking for models as well, and most of the models are just regular people like you. If your old enough you can consider auditioning for Americas or Canadas next top model. (i dont know what country your from :s) You can start a portfolio and go knocking on doors in NYC with all the major modeling managements. And i understand that you seriously want this, I mean im 15 years old and my dream is the be a singer. So dont give up and if your really serious about this then every breath you take should revolve on how your going to acheive your dream. Best of luck! Also there is going to be alot of rejection in this industry, so if someone says your not good enough or tells you youll never get anywhere,dont listen to them, because if you belive you have the potential, and you know you can do it, then in the end its only your opinion that matters. Good luck once again!

As Tyra Banks says "Never say you'll do anything."
