LOL!! It's like that most of the time with celebs...All head and no body

Its funny being an actress and seeing actresses/actors who look kinda thin in movies but skeletal in person...AYEE!!!

Well whatever she did worked for her. *shrugs* Mo Powa!

Yeah- BUT its not the norm. Someone here said that short models who want to do runway may be able to squeeze by and do local small events, but I think its safe to say, its highly unlikely that you will see a 4ft Victoria's secret runway model.   


And to answer the OP's question, short models insist on doing runway because it makes them feel TALLER. Duh.

Shit, you'll see....that's going to change. HAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.....

the arguement with that is-although that states otherwise it DOES prove that it ISN'T impossible for a shorter model to walk a high fashion runway.
hah!

Nobody said it is impossible..

impossible means it isn't possible-as in there are no odds.

I think you're missing a few zeros there. Population of the world=6.6 billion. Number of Kate Moss=1. You do the math.

aww thanks darlin.. Dita Von Teese are you talking about?  She's a burlesque performer.. not sure what type of model you could consider her as..  As far as me doing hair and makeup commercials.. I WISH! Thanks for the kind words darlin.

Okay..

There probably 10 short-real runway models in the whole world.
Probablity of the odds become 10: 6.6 billion.



My math sucked Pat!

AGREED!!!

Go ahead and hate, haters.....

- quote from PYPI

Exactly - these are not classic runway shows.  Also those night clubs are generally not paying the models and the models are local.  In the night club world, it is primarily about T and A.  Hott girls with attitude.  Some are friends of friends, blah blah blah.  The shows are usually designers that are not capable of competing against the McQueens, the Diors and the Chanels of the world.  They can only do nightclub at this point in time.  You have to start somewhere.  The point is, you can't be picky about height when you aren't paying and are not getting great response for your casting call in regards to height.

I'll give you that. Although you have better odds of winning the mega millions lottery two times in a row. Quit your job and plan your life around that possibility.

Im six feet tall, but I cant walk the runway because Im not skinny enough, but It would be unhealthy to drop 20 pounds, so Ive moved on. Just my 2 cents.

Eva is in my port from Mercedes Fashion Week in LA she walked the Monarchy Collection show,...do you honestly think if she had not won ANTM she would have been walking that show...if you read the whole thread you will notice that somewhere it states it only the famous ones (atleast in this case for Eva thanks to Tyra, Nigel, and crew) get the chances to walk runways because its good marketing for the designer, adding to that Paris Hilton walked the runway at Boulevard 3 in LA and there was an article about her being the fattest model in the show at size 4 go figure, but you know what it was good publicity for the show

ya, I know, I was joking. Eva herself says she doesn't do runways anymore because she's too short. At least she knows.

But what about those runway shows in nightclubs where the fashion consist of tight fitting boy shorts and torn wife beaters with some sequin on them? Those are not height sensitive.

I was being sarcastic but your answer is right on. There are fashion shows that revolve around designers. Designers who are formally trained in Art of Fashion schools. Then there are 'fashion shows' that revolve around getting patrons into the club. Those shows often revolve around 'designers' who are  no more than GWS. (Guy/Girl with sewing machine)

But how did she land that contract and not someone else. It's always confusing to people who don't know any better. That's why random folks think they have a chance.

She's a celeb so the rules bend for celebs!

If you were on a campaign for hair color or makeup i'd buy it!

I stand corrected. Some 'designers' don't even bother with sewing machines. Take a big scarf, pin it here, pin it there, and call it a day.
