Tall models

6'0 and over is way too tall for a woman. Heck, I don't even like my men to be 6'4 and over.

:innocent: I guess I'm just too tall then, until I shrink an inch or two.

I enjoy my men over 6'4" though so I guess we are quite different haha.
 
supermodels should be tall, cos supermodels are meant to be goddess-like...the unattainable beaty etc etc, that's why they are SUPERmodels!
if they were average height...they wouldn't be as striking. i dont think 6'0 is too tall for a chick there was this blonde chick who was really tall and all the guys were besotted with her... :smile:
 
Hana's agency always lists her at 5'11''. She was actually almost "too tall" to make it but the fact that she was the #1 runway model (models.com) for forever (maybe she still is?) shows that in the end the casting agents love her long look.

I've shot editorials with several models who are 180-181cm and it's almost impossible to find trousers which are long enough. For one editorial we just had to chuck all the full length poses for pants outfits!
 
Eugenia looks quite gigantic in this shot^_^

Julia Stegner herself said she's 1,83m..I know she's even tall for a model
but whenever she's near Trentini, Trentini looks almost as tall as Julia so I think both are taller than listed
 
I Think Solange Wilvert is 6' too...
She always seems to be taller than 5'11

I Remember when Adriana Lima, Gisele and Karolina went to TRL, Gisele and Karolina both said that they were 5'11 but then they stayed back to back and Karolina was heigher...
 
Erin O'Connor is 6'1, I think.
Eva Poloniova is either 6'0 or 6'1 as well.
Stella Tennant is also 6'1.
As is Jodie Kidd (But I don't think she models anymore).
 
Tiiu, Hana Soukupova & Julia Steg. are all definitely above 6'. :shock:
 
I would not like to be taller than average, let alone over 6'0"! I once walked into a store in a shopping centre in England. There was this blonde woman in there and she had to be at least 6'6" (and was wearing flats). :shock: She couldn't have been a model either because she wasn't only tall, but her frame was also in proportion with her height and she looked like an average person made into a giant. I have no idea what she was doing shopping there when the poor woman wouldn't find any clothes there to fit her. :( Everyone was gawping at her, too. I did notice how every woman in the store did not even reach her boobs with their heads, but I tried to ignore her knowing she probably felt embarrassed.

^^^In Montenegro there are so many girls that are over 6' you wouldn't even believe it. It's more common to find a girl over 6' than under 5'6" there. Also my dad's family is from Herzegovina and over there people are quite tall as well. My grandmother was near 2 meters tall they say. My dad is just over 6' and they nicknamed him the small one. It's common to see girls that are 180-190 cm there at least in the mountains.
 
How tall is Caroline Trentini?I read that Hana and Caroline are the same height,but for some reason Hana looks taller than her:unsure:.

That story made crack up!
I agree that 6'0" or above is too tall for a woman,

Yeah, I once read that the tallest people in Europe are found in the Balkan region.
 
^ Well, I do not know about everybody else, but I have seen plenty of average height and petite women who look graceful and regal and also plenty of tall women who are the opposite of that. I believe it depends more upon how the woman carries herself rather than her height. If a woman slouches and waddles down the street with her mouth open, I doubt many people would find her very graceful or regal, whether she's 5'10" or 5'0". :lol:
 
Hana is a little over 6'1...and Julia is a little over 5'11.5...the only working model that I know of who happens to be taller than Hana is Tiiu, 6'2'':flower:
