Typical universal measurement standard

Models have certain conditions in body shape, appearance, temperament, cultural foundation, professional feeling and display ability, so what is the general measure of models? The following is the general measurement standard of models that I have compiled for you. Welcome to refer to.

The current average height of international models 178. If the predetermined number of performers is not reached, the height will fluctuate by 2-3 cm, so the girls with height 174- 18 1 are within the standard. Male model height 180- 190.

Female model measurement: bust 84-90. Waist circumference 60-63. Hip circumference 86-90. From the visual effect, the closer the chest and hip size, the better. The best measurements are 90-60-90, but not all measurements can be achieved even in Europe.

The shoulder width of male model is 52-55. Chest 103- 106. Waist circumference 76-83. Male models must be strong, but not too thick, giving people a handsome, deep and positive feeling, but now there are also morbidly beautiful male models in Europe. Handsome, skinny, pale, even with O-legs, walking is not very good.

The shoulders are flat, wide and round. In addition to size, shoulders are also an important part of measuring models. The legs should be even and slender, the midline should be straight, the calves should be strong, the ankles should not be too angry, and the feet should not be too wide.

The ratio is: first, the ratio of head length to height. The ratio of normal height to head length is about 8 1, and the model's head length is better than normal.

The second is the ratio of upper body to lower body. Professional models require that the length difference between the upper body and the lower body be above 10. The dividing line between the upper and lower parts is the sacrum, the upper part is from the sacrum to the top of the head, and the lower part is from the sacrum to the lower part. The longer the lower body, the better. There is also a second method, in which the upper body is measured from the third cervical vertebra to the lower hip contour, and the lower body is measured from the lower hip contour to the ankle. The longer the lower body, the better.

The shoe size is between 37 and 40.

(1) body type

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 around 1.82 meters tall. 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.
