Models Who Aren't That Tall

I don't think marine is short, she's like a ginta. Tall but with shorter limbs. Now sigrid agren is short, I was expecting her to be much taller but not at all. Benjamin eidem is also not tall

^ Benjamin is an inch or two shorter than most models but it doesn't matter because he's hot as hell and can carry off any outfit imo :) But I'm not sure about Sigrid being short, she always looks the same height as most models, I don't know what you're basing that on?
 
Benjamin Eidem is short, he was shorter than Irina Kulikova at Prada and they were both wearing the same exact flat sandals. I'd say he's actually around 5'10-5'11 ish. Then there's Carlos Peters who is most likely 5'10. Clement too I don't think is very tall, haha seems most Prada boys are short.
 
but Irina is taller than half of the male models there.
and in the finale you can see Ben is still taller than Magdalena. my guess is around 6'0
 
^ Exactly Irina is an Amazon and I'm finding it weird to hear someone called short at 5'10/11 when I am 5'8 myself :doh:
 
By general societal rule, being short is probably 5'4" and under for a woman and 5'7" and under for a man.
I'm assuming model wise, being 5'9" and under is short for women, and under 5'11" is probably short for a man?
So, irina is by no means short.

Yes. we can't use "normal" sizing standards when talking about models. The numbers I've always seen thrown around are 5'11" for the ladies and 6'2" for the guys. Anything below either one would be considered "short" in the modeling world. But it seems like for the ladies, the number has been decreased to 5'10" because it seems most new models fall in that range (despite having 5'11" thrown on their show cards), but I think the range for the guys remains the lofty 6'2", which I think is really tall.

we have already discuss about Cara's height but this picture was quite impressive, we cant tell if they are wearing heels or not, but as far as i know Hanne is 5'10" and Kasia is listed as 5'10.5" but Cara looks extremely tiny, almost like a fan taking a picture with it's fave models :lol:

I'm basing that on the fact that I've worked backstage at over 70 shows and Im 6ft so that's a great height for determining other models height. Sigrid without heels was no taller than 5'9. Her proportions are outstanding so although far away she looks 6ft tall, when you walk past her she's quite short for model standards. Benjamin eidem was my same height maybe half an inch shorter. But like you said earlier, hes unbelievably good looking and even looks Photoshopped in person.

^ You're so lucky to have seen Benjamin and Sigrid in person, that's all I have to say. I don't care about models' height even though that is an important factor for their jobs. Actually, I don't care about height in general since I have a crush on someone shorter than me :rolleyes: Being attractive is totally different than being tall imo :judge:
 
^ I really wish I could say the same but I'm like 6'1.5" and I just feel awkward with any guy under 6'0" I don't know what it is. But I really don't care how tall a model is as long as their work is good.

Yeah I couldn't believe this picture, although Cara's instagram pictures with Jourdan and Karlie show the same thing. I think she doesn't care about hiding it in pictures she posts herself now that she's so famous and it doesn't matter anymore.

Here's Jessica compared with Doutzen Kroes (listed as 5'10") and Noemie Lenoir (listed as 5'9") on the same event.

How tall do you guys think Lara really is?
 
I think Lara might be somewhere between 5'8" and 5'9". Elite listed her as 5'8.5" and 5'9" back in the day. She wears size US 6.5 shoes too so she must be more petite than other models but not by too much because it's not so obvious!
 
I think there are a few issues with that pic of the 3. Stam is in the middle between the two, she's further away from the camera because it's sort of a U shape they formed in that pose. You'd be surprised at how off the perspective a camera can be. Plus she's wearing flats so it further magnifies the height difference between the girls.
