Models Who Aren't That Tall

Chrissy Teigen (listed as 5'9") next to Jessica Stam (listed as 5'10" 1/2)

Ine is listed as 5'10" but I think she isn't that tall.
Vanessa(5'11) Maartje(5'10.5) Ine(5'10) Julia(5'11)

I don't think that's a fair pic. Everyone except Ine is in heels, plus Vanessa is standing closer to the camera:ermm:
 
Maartje was already 5'10.5 tall when she began modeling so I think she a little bit taller than that now. Julia and Vanessa's heels are an inch taller than Maartje so that make the difference between them. Ine is definitely 5'10.

As for Chrissy, Jessica seems to be wearing plateforms. Stam is tall for sure but as someone mentioned before she's a silent tallie. She doesn't have long legs so she doesn't look as tall as she really is.
So I would say Chrissy is between 5'7 and 5'8.5

She's not modeling anymore, but Lonneke Engel appears to be short too.

from here (scanned by GinAndTonic)

With her first agency, she was listed at 5'8 1/2, then she switched to IMG and was listed at 5'9 with them.
 
I was so into this thread that I decided to make a list of all the models who are 5’9 or under.
(This list may contain mistakes)
Kate Moss 5’6 / Cara Delevingne 5’7 / Barbara Palvin 5’7 / Marine Deleeuw 5’8
Alessandra Ambrosio 5’9 / Bianca Balti 5’7 / Candice Swanepoel 5’8-5’9
Sasha Pivovarova 5’7 / Isabeli Fontana 5’9 / Zippora Seven 5’5
Hedvig Palm 5’8-5’9 / Sasha Luss 5’8-5’9 / Georgia May Jagger 5’6 / Anna Selezneva 5’8
Chanel Iman 5’8-5’9 / Miranda Kerr 5’8 / Siri Tollerod 5’8 / Hannah Holman 5’7
Ashley Smith 5’8 / Charlotte Free 5’7 / Lily Aldridge 5’9 / Jacquelyn Jablonski
Anais Mali 5’7 / Julia Hafstrom 5’8 / Bambi Northwood-Blyth 5’5 / Devon Aoki 5’5
Amanda Norgaard 5’ / Sara Sampaio 5’6 / Luma Grothe 5’7 / Edita Vilkeviciute 5’8
Juliana Schurig 5’9 / Loulou Robert 5’7 / Malaika Firth 5’7 / Alena Blohm 5’7
Anna Ewers 5’7 / Hailey Baldwin 5’7 / Suki Waterhouse 5’7 / Shanina Shaik 5’8
Olympia Campbell 5’7 / Stella Lucia 5’7-5’8

Feel free to complete this list :flower:

I really don't think Hedvig is 5'8, I'd put her at at around 5'9.5 or 176/177. The topshop pics were really distorted as I recall. There are a whole bunch of streetstyle shots with Hedvig and Emmy Rappe (listed as 5'10) both in flats and they were basically the same height.
She has been frequently seen with Esther Heesch, and I fully believe that Esthers 1.80cm. Hedvig seems about four cm shorter.
 
The two girls behind in the line seem to be significantly shorter than the two girls in front.

^ That is probably one of the worst photos to judge heights from because of the angle.
You're basically at the hips of the first model looking up.
I can tell you now though by looking at the shoulder height that the first model is actually the shortest in the line up.
 
I think it's the second girl, who significantely tall, which screws up the vision. But, the third girl is visibly shorter.
 
From that picture all you can really say is that the first girl is shorter than the second.
I would guess that:
a) The second girl is a bit taller than the third
b) The first girl is the shortest
 
Mariacarla looks rather short next to the other girls..

She is not that shorter. It's really the leaning. And she and the girls on the left seem to be a bit "behind" the other girls.

No, Mariacarla is a known shortie. I forget exactly what the consensus is, but she's known to be pretty darn short.
