Anais Mali in killer heels vs. Magdalena F in flats + leaning back a bit, and they still manage to be the same height.

I think it does matter because it can explain why a girl as gorgeous as anais does not become as big as we hope
I didn't say she wasn't big or doing well but she isn't even on the top 50. I think not being able to do runway in this case due to height, limits a models exposure which in turn makes it harder to reach the heights of the industry.
If that were the case, then Marine would be 5'8 or 5'8.5" which still isn't all that short.
