Should i try?

What are the basic must have traits for any mainstream model?

To recap, making it as a model requires the following traits and skills:

A slim build
A height somewhere between 5'8" and 5'11" (there are exceptions)
Good bone structure with a symmetrical and angular face
Being naturally photogenic and/or a good knowledge of ones “angles”
Good posture and a strong runway walk (learned or natural)

I have all other than the height I am about 5 foot 1 inch and I am a little flabby but I am only 110 pounds total. Should I try to lose 10 pounds and try? Would I have a shot?

I also always hit on and well harassed a lot since I am hot and have a nice body. Least what most people tell me.

I dont really have a lot going for me other than the fact I am pretty, Proper, and like to draw and my art career hasn't really gotten me anywhere. I also have a very small frame naturally.

    A fashion model?. You might be a bit short for the runway. You could try catalogue modeling or getting into commercials. What ever you deiced the important thing is that you tried.

    • How is catalog model different from a Fashion model?

        A catalog model isn't sprawled out across a lion for the sake of fashion. She displays the product simply and tastefully.

    Not at 5'1 unless you do magazines which don't pay much. You'd have to be in the 5% that can make a living off it and even that is short-lived. Why not pursue something that uses your brain and not your body?

    • Since I not really that bright and I dont have money for college. Fasfa says I making all this money so im not really eligible to much, even though they go off my mothers income which is not my money, and she cant pay anything for my school. I wasn't born with a natural gift for hacking computers like some people or anything like that. As well as that I went to a crap school that wont let me get transcripts or teacher recommendation letters since I graduated already and its trespassing.

    Honestly, with your size, it would be a really hard profession to break into and as it is such a short lived career for most, I'd think your time would be better spent getting some kind of training for a career that will last you a lifetime.
