fashion magazines such as Vogue and Elle.
Editorial models also usually work for top

are incredibly tall, slim, and usually are the
‘complete package.’

usually someone a bit more voluptuous and
curvy. These models also tend to model
sleepwear, summer wear, and other forms of
undergarments.

type is the most open to
diverse and new talent.
Commercial models advertise a
wide range of products in
catalogs, campaigns, and
commercials

and athletically built. This of course makes

wearing fitness attire. Fitness models are also
found in commercials that involve
demonstrating fitness routines.

their hands, arms, feet, and legs. A
hand model can book a job
involving jewelry, where as a foot

involving nail and beauty care. As a
whole, clients look for a parts model
who has well-proportioned body
parts that fit standard shoes and
jewelry

curvy. These models also tend to model
sleepwear, summer wear, and other forms of
undergarments.
 Promotional
Model
This type of model books jobs that help sell or
promote a certain commodity. Promotional models
are often found at trade shows and other live
events. As a whole, these models must be
personable, outgoing, and have a strong
knowledge of the product they are representing.
Glamour
Model

Glamour modeling is centered on appearance,

including facial beauty and body shape. These
models are usually curvier than editorial
models and often book swimsuit and lingerie
photoshoots. Glamour models tend to pose
more suggestively than typical editorial or
commercial models.
Print
models
Print models are often found in
magazines, billboards, campaigns,
booklets, flyers, and posters. These
models usually have clear skin and
a nice smile. While some of these
models are selling a product,
others are simply photographed
based on the needs of the client.
 History of
Modeling
● According to Charles Castle, the author of "Model Girl", the first fashion
model was Parisian shop girl, Maria Vernet Worth. She supposedly
became the first professional mannequin in 1852, to help
her dress salesman husband.

● By the 1920s, modeling had become more of a visible job choice for
women, with department stores and retailers across the U.S. regularly
staging fashion shows with live models, and referring to them more as
"models" than as "mannequins." Then, in New York City in 1923, John
Powers opened the very first modeling agency.
