    • 8. What should I do after the sign up?

      As a model, once you have created your profile, you will be able to upload your photos and arrange them into photobooks (groups of your modelling images that belong together) and polaroid albums (pictures that show you in a natural way; without too much makeup, styling or posing).

      You have the choice to either make your photos “Public” or if you wish to keep everything between you and the registered model agencies, simply adjust your settings to “Private”. (Please be aware that this will restrict any other unregistered professionals who may be using the site from seeing you and could be a disadvantage to gaining maximum most exposure.)

      You can then connect with and search for other models, photographers and agencies and follow them as a fan, or get your own fans. When you are followed back you become friends.

      Send and receive messages, search for agencies and photographers and apply for Photo Sessions via the New Faces starter pack.

    • 9. Can I search for other members on the site?

      Yes, you can use the Models tab to look for other models that you may or may not know on the site. You can search by name, modelling categories, gender, body specifications or any other keyword that you like.

      You don’t have to be a member to do this, so you can get an idea of what kind of people are already on the site before you join. You must, however, be registered as a member of modelmanagement.com before you can start contacting people.

    • 10. How can I follow models?

      You will need to login and look for other models (look after question 9, if you don´t know how to do it). When you are in the model profile, just click on follow, (the blue link under the profile picture on the left).

    • 11. By joining modelmanagement.com will I be guaranteed work?

      No reputable modelling/talent agency or service can guarantee work. If they do, this is a warning of a scam. Modelmanagement.com cannot guarantee job placements for its members because the amount of jobs a model gets largely depends on the quality of the model's photographs, 'look' and what is in demand.

      Our New Faces Starter Pack is designed to maximize exposure world wide, thus helping you to be seen by the right people and to find representation.

  2. About your profile in modelmanagement.com

    • 1. What can I do after I sign up and create my profile?

      The details that you enter when you register will automatically be used to create your own unique profile. By owning your own profile, you’ll be able to show it to the world, contact and follow other people.

    • 2. What kind of pictures should I upload?

      We recommend you to upload the best pictures that you have of yourself. If you upload images of very poor quality, then this could be a disadvantage to you. The correct amount of pictures should be between 5 to 10 for each photobook.

      Your own Photo Shoot and professional photos:

      Prioritised listing in model agency search results: We are not a model agency - we connect models with agencies and photographers, which makes us completely objective when presenting models. However, as we can verify the standard of the models who have attended one of our Photo Sessions, these models get priority and appear first in model agency search results.

      The cost of a Photo Session is 79€, but the payment is not required until your place is confirmed by the photographer.

      We will provide you with Model Management t-shirt or vest, which is a stylish and simple way to keep the focus on you. You are required to bring your own jeans, shorts, bikini bottoms (girls) shoes or trainers. A makeup artist will make you look your best in a fresh and natural way.

  4. Being a model

    • 1. I would like to be a model what should I do?

      We believe that to be a model is about having "the right look", the right shots and the right place/people to show them to. We also believe of the importance for a new model to be represented by a model agency.

    • 2. Can I Be a Model?

      You are likely to hear that to be a model you need to be beautiful, tall and slender with perfect proportions. Now this is certainly true for high fashion models, where designers want one type of model that they feel shows off their designs in the best way.

      However if you do not fit this criteria don’t despair, as there are many other areas that you can work in successfully and lucratively as a model. The modelling industry needs all different shapes and sizes. It ranges from the models who are required for the runways of Paris and Milan to those being seen in the background of TV commercials. You need to find the right fit for you and your place in the industry.

      To help you with this we have listed the different types of modelling work that’s available and the criteria for each, and as with most things in life there are always exceptions...

    • 3. What are the main different types of modelling?

      Fashion: Covers a range of different disciplines within the fashion world, including runways and editorial, commercial print, catalogue and glamour modeling.

      High Fashion: When you see the incredibly tall and lean figures that grace the runways and editorials for the leading fashion houses and designers, these are the High Fashion models. They are generally required to be between 172cm to 180cm (5”8 to 5”11), with a dress size of 4-6 US (6-8 UK), with a typical bust size of 34. The age range can be from 14 to 25. For guys the age range is more flexible and they can start from the age of 16 until their late 40’s. They need to be between 180cm to 188cm (5”11 to 6”2), with an excellent physique and a chest size of 94cm to 106cm (37” to 42”) and 76cm to 81cm (30” to 32”) waist. Guys tend to have longer careers if they look after themselves.

      Plus Sized: Modeling for the larger body type, this type of modeling is on the increase and a relatively new phenomenon. If you’re confident, with great attributes and you are between the sizes of 12-16 US (14-18 UK) then this could be for you. More and more advertisers are using Plus Size Models to promote their products in a bid to appeal to a broader demographic. As a Plus Size model you will still need to have great skin, teeth and hair and have that something special about you. For High Fashion Plus Sized Models the height requirements remain at a minimum of 172cm (5”8).

      Real Life & People: If you like the idea of modeling, but do not fit into the above categories, then this could be for you. Real life models are used in advertising or corporate campaigns, when companies are looking to represent the everyday person. As a TV/Film Extra you will generally be non-featured (no speaking parts) and in the background of a scene. This can be fun and interesting to be part of, but it can also be long hours with lots of waiting around. The benefits are that if you are flexible with your days, it can be a good way to supplement your income.

      Body Parts: For example if you have great abs and pretty hands…

      Senior: Models that are older than 45 years.

    • 4. Know more about measurements:

      The "ideal" measurements for fashion/ high fashion models are usually slightly different in the UK than in America. (Remember there are other modelling categories than these, as explained in the questions above!)

      In the UK it's:

      • Height: 5'8" and over.
      • Bust: 28-36"
      • Waist: 23-27"
      • Hips: 32-38" (38" is probably the biggest but you do get some)

      That's from the smallest to the biggest really and you need to be in proportion.

      Now, take your body measurements for runway, glamour or fashion modeling, get your profile, and start looking after castings or contacting other models, photographers or talent agencies! The first thing you have to get is to get going!

      Just remember to always be truthful about your measurements. You may find yourself looking for another career if you show up for a photo shoot and you aren't the size the agency is expecting.

      To convert your measurements from American, British to European or Continental, you can use our size conversion chart:

      Here´s a nice video we´ve found, hope it´s useful for you!
