High-fashion models must be tall and thin. If you’re of average height or heavier weight, try print or plus-size modeling.

]]> 87941 1 30 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/218057/30.jpg Contact modeling agencies to set up brief interviews, called “go-sees.” Some modeling agencies hold periodic open calls to meet scores of potential models at once.

]]> 87942 2 41 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/218057/41.jpg Prepare for go-sees by choosing close-fitting clothing you feel comfortable in. Women should wear natural makeup and simple hairstyles. Bring a few snapshots of yourself – a closeup of your face and some full-body shots in a swimsuit.

]]> 87943 3 55 Tip Don’t spend money on professional photos. An agency will help you obtain photos for your portfolio.

]]> 87944 4 62 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/218057/62.jpg Get signed by an agency. Modeling agencies find work for models and manage their careers in exchange for a cut of their pay.

]]> 87945 5 70 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/218057/70.jpg Avoid scams by researching agencies and looking out for sketchy business practices. While smaller agencies may require models to pay for their own photos, a respectable agency won’t ask for lots of money up front.

]]> 87946 6 83 Tip The Better Business Bureau can help you assess an agency.

]]> 87947 7 87 Step http://img.howcast.com/system/thumbnails/218057/87.jpg Have a realistic backup plan. Modeling can be a short career.
