Basic height of the model

Height is the most basic condition for a model, so what are the height and other requirements for becoming a model? The following is what I have compiled about the basic height of models. I hope you like it.

Basic height of the model

(1) height

Height is the most basic condition for a model. The height of female fashion models is generally between 1.72~ 1.85 meters. Nowadays, several supermodels in the world, such as cindy crawford and Claudia Yima, are all around1.82m in height. The height of female advertising models is generally above 1.66 meters. Male models are generally between1.80 ~1.90m in height, 86~90 cm in chest circumference, 63~78 cm in waist circumference and 70~80 kg in weight.

Harmonious body proportion is an important physiological basis of models. For models that embody the beauty of human body, we can refer to the golden section law when judging whether their bodies are harmonious or not. For the model's figure proportion, we can analyze it from the following aspects.

1, upper and lower body ratio-the requirement for models is that the lower body is longer than the upper body.

2, the proportion of big and small legs-the ratio of small legs to thighs is close to or slightly longer than thighs.

3. Head-to-body ratio-The length of the head is 1/7~ 1/8 of the body length, and a smaller head will make the body look more dexterous.

4, measurements-the chest should not be too straight, the hips should be narrow, and the hips should not sag.

(2) Appearance

Although the appearance is not prominent, it is also a very important image factor. For models, the ideal head shape is oval, and the face shape should not be too wide, but slightly longer. Correct facial features are the minimum requirement. You don't need to be very beautiful. As long as you have personality, you can still stand out.

(3) temperament

An excellent model often has a distinctive temperament. It includes people's posture, expressions, manners, manners and so on. As a model, it is not enough to have a good figure and facial features. With a good temperament, you can set off a wonderful fashion. Therefore, it is very important for models to always pay attention to their inner cultivation and appearance.

Cultural foundation

In people's minds, as long as you are tall and beautiful, you can become a good model. In fact, this understanding is wrong. If that's the case, why does our country want to set up modeling majors in various colleges, technical secondary schools and technical schools, and only choose some people who meet the standards of figure and appearance in society? Facts tell us that although education level and cultural accomplishment are not absolutely consistent concepts, models who have not entered colleges and universities still have to obtain some necessary knowledge through other channels.

Imagine, a model with a cultural foundation, he (or she) has a variety of unique expression methods for different clothing styles, which is convenient for forming his own personality and career development. In fact, a lot of cultural knowledge has a lot to do with model performance. Such as music knowledge, dance knowledge, costume design, photography art, stage lighting, etc. Are all things that people engaged in modeling must know. Even if they can't master these things, they should be familiar with them.

(E) Professional feelings

The professional feelings of models generally include clothing feelings and stage feelings. The so-called sense of clothing is an intuitive judgment of clothing, that is, being familiar with the fashion trend of clothing; People who know which style is suitable for which style and temperament; Be proficient in the personality requirements of your own image. Generally speaking, you can find the deepest trend by your intuition and dress up according to the trend information.

We often see some good-looking people on stage without charm, which is related to the stage feeling. I think the sense of stage is related to personal talent, but the cultivation of the day after tomorrow is also very important. We often see some supermodels. When they perform fashion shows, they often enter a state of being handy and no one is watching. Every move can show the beauty of fashion to the fullest, and their sense of stage can often bring the performing arts to the peak.

(6) Demonstrate ability

General display ability includes two aspects: stage performance skills and display clothing ability. No matter what kind of model, you should have the skills of catwalk, that is, you should be able to catwalk. Stage performance skills are generally cultivated through professional training. Fashion shows generally require models to understand the designer's design ideas, as well as the purpose of arranging music and walking on stage. The content of these requirements is the clothing display ability that a model must have.

Extended content

Traditional mode

It mainly refers to showman as a media for exhibition art and advertising, and it is also the main carrier for all kinds of businesses to promote sales, endorse products with models and try on them. Such models are generally fashionistas, artists and the like. Today, Brazil has the largest number of international supermodels in the world.

Online model

Also known as network graphic model, online shop model and network madou, it is mainly the display carrier for e-commerce network operators to promote products and marketing. This vocabulary is also a special name for online merchants! Most of these models are part-time students, so they have lower requirements for figure than traditional models. Merchants mainly look at whether the product style and model style are reasonable. At the same time, online models also refer to a kind of models who look for model jobs through the Internet, including models who participate in outdoor shooting activities of photography websites as portrait photographers.

Career orientation

Nowadays, anyone who interprets the corporate product culture or brand image is shrouded in the aura of models. Because these people usually have a pleasing appearance, cater to the aesthetics of mainstream groups or some authoritative groups, and are mainly women-when they are associated with business, they form a unique economic phenomenon, which is the famous "beauty economy"; With more and more men joining this economic circle (they also have pleasing appearance and cater to the aesthetics of mainstream groups or some authoritative groups), the beauty economy has evolved into a beauty economy.

hypothesis

Height requirement

The uniform height of international fashion models participating in the performance is 1.78m (Italy sometimes requires 1.8m). If you can't reach the scheduled number of performers, the height can be 2~3cm up and down. Therefore, girls whose height is between 1.75~ 1.80m are within the standard.

Measure size

Measurement refers to bust, waist and hip. The ideal size is 90cm chest circumference, 60cm waist circumference and 90cm hip circumference, but even in Europe, not all of them can meet this standard. According to the national characteristics of our country, the standard measurements are generally chest circumference of 84cm, waist circumference of 6 1cm and hip circumference of 90cm. Some models are fat, but their hip circumference does not exceed the standard 2cm, and they can still be employed.

facial characteristic

The appearance standard of fashion models is not simply to see whether they are beautiful, but mainly to see whether they have three-dimensional sense or personality characteristics. When selecting a model, experts should not only look at the appearance, but also consider the effect of makeup, and at the same time observe whether their personality is qualified for the modeling work according to their manners and appearance characteristics. In China, there are more opportunities for girls who have advantages in looks.

Body proportion

There are two ratios: the first is the ratio of head to whole body. The normal proportion of the average person's body and head is-the head is one-eighth of the whole body, and the proportion of models should be smaller than the normal proportion. If it is more than one eighth, other conditions will be balanced. The second is the ratio of the length of the upper body to the lower body. The dividing line between upper body and lower body is sacrum. The upper body is from the top of the head to the sacrum, and the lower body is from the sacrum to the soles of the feet. According to the national characteristics of China, students can be admitted if their upper and lower bodies are equal in length. The lower body is longer than the upper body, and the longer the legs, the better the conditions. There is a second measurement method. The upper body is measured from Dazhui point to breech line, and the lower body is measured from breech line to ankle bone. This measurement method is beneficial to fashion designers, who can directly think of the number of clothes, but it is difficult for other customers to imagine the physical condition from the size. Therefore, both measurement methods are needed, but there are differences in the name of the ratio.

Leg type standard

Leg shape is very important for fashion models, and people often fail in interviews because of their poor leg shape. The model's leg shape should be uniform in thickness, with straight centerline and strong calves. The thigh is too thick, the calf is big, or the outer arc of the leg midline is not ideal.

Facial standard

Models' faces are oval, oval and rectangular. Other face shapes should be selected according to other conditions, and make up for it in makeup and hairstyle.

Skin standard

The roughness and delicacy of the model's skin and the depth of skin color are directly related to the timing of use. If the skin is good, there will be more opportunities and a wider range of adaptation. Acne or rough skin that affects the appearance will affect the opportunity. Even if the skin is good, pay special attention to protection. Because the makeup of models is professional and their daily life is irregular, we should pay special attention to controlling the intake of cigarettes, alcohol, sugar and irritating food if we want to keep the skin beautiful.

Hand type standard

It is also common to make ornaments, computers and other advertisements by hand. The requirements of a good hand shape are slender fingers, not thick joints, fine nails and delicate and elastic skin.

prerequisite

You must have a good figure and appearance, plus excellent internal qualities such as personal temperament, cultural foundation, personality cultivation and clothing display ability to become a successful model. Therefore, as a model, she should have comprehensive qualities in all aspects. To sum up, there are several conditions, such as body shape, appearance, temperament, cultural foundation, professional feeling and display ability.

Runway models are also called professional fashion models.
