Models Who Aren't That Tall

[Valentine27]

Anna Selezneva? She doesn't look short, does she?

Yes Cara is definitely between 5'7 and 5'8. I have seen her and am 5'7, she was the same height as me. Her bodytype is really really tiny also.

Storm has definitely lied the most about stats, i.e When Agyness Deyn was new they decided she was 18 years old (she was 24) and 5'11 (she is 5'8)

i remember ambrose olsen was 5'9" with storm and marylin paris
barbarin palvin is 5'7" on fmd : http://www.fashionmodeldirectory.com/models/Barbara_Palvin/
just take a look at the newfaces with women paris and milan , mgm paris , select , you will see a lot of 5'7" girls , it's not an exception anymore

I just refuse to believe that girls who look so short like Barbara are 5'9 or even 5'8. Just look at the VS girls and Adriana is always notecebly taller than other angels like Alessandra and Candice and she is 5'10 I believe, and then there is a shot of Ale and Barbara together and the latter is definitely shorter, so if Ale is 5'9 the is no way Barbara is tall. if you look short, then most likely you are short (for a model of course)

Anna Selezneva is a shorty barely 5'9. Same with Jas Tookes

^5'9'' is not short.

 

[littlegracie]

wow it seems the industry seem to "bump" models heights quite a lot, does that mean models who are listed as 5'8 are actually shorter?

 

[Littleathquakes]

^5'9'' is not short.

By model standard it is, where the golden number is 5'11" for ladies and 6'2" for gents.

Yeah agencies lie all the time. It's annoying.

 

[wannabemodelbook]

If a girl is actually 5'8 the agency will list her as 5'9 because clients would think she's even less than 5'8 if the agency would list her as 5'8. Does that make sense? It's a vicious circle lol

 

[littlegracie]

lol its like "an inch here, an inch there, she's really 5'9 but we'll pretend shes 5'10.5"

So If they change the heights all the time, why does "height" supposedly matter so much? I mean if designers want tall girls, why do agencies bother bumping up their height even if they have a gorgeous face? Modeling agencies are so baffling!

I know, exactly! Maybe one day they'll just start telling it like it is and height won't be such a major factor in high fashion. At least I hope..

This. If everyone is lying why can't we just tell the truth and then you'd know what you're actually getting once your model arrives.

So is Anja Konstantinova 5'4, Zippora 5'6, and Charolette Free and Bambi both 5'7?
Who else is under 5'7???

well we all know Miss Moss is 5'6

 

[Pricciao]

is Marine Deleeuw short? cause I feel she isn't really have the same "waist height" as other girls and she looks about 170~173 cm max in pictures.

[foreverandnone]

I do think she is actually her listed height, it's just her proportions aren't very modelesque

 

[TommyGirl]

She looks like she has longer torso/shorter legs-bodytype, but I still think Pricciao`s estimation looks right. What is her listed height? I have long legs/short torso, but I am only 168 cm, my legs look the same in pictures, only my torso looks bit shorter.

 

[Valentine27]

I think she is listed 176-177cm but I really doubt she is. I saw and talked a few times with her last FW. I am 171cm and even if she was wearing small heels, she did not appear to be much taller than me. Usually, when you meet models, you're impressed by how tall they are. I did not have this impression with her. hm, I would say Marine is 173-174cm max.
