Question: What Does It Take To Be a Plus-Sized Model?
I get emails every week asking me for my tips on becoming a plus-size model. I attempt to answer it succinctly for all interested parties, because the flood of mail has made me realize that people come here all the time for one simple answer.
Answer:
Be honest with yourself: is this a possible career for you or a hobby, and just how much are you willing to invest in your dreams? If you're serious about being a plus-size model, contact a photographer for a few headshots and full body shots to submit to local and national agencies.
Look into open calls in areas near you, as well as company-sponsored modeling contests such as the one held by Torrid. By doing your research and being persistent, you just might luck out!
