Plus size modeling industry

[Naamah D.]

Does anyone know how you have to eat to in the plus size modeling industry? I don't want to be a model myself, but I want to know the guidlines.

I'm not sure if I can link to it from here, but a quick google search turned up a website that listed the requirements as 5'8" - 6", size 6-16, and being photogenic. Hope that helps!

 

Edit: Oh sorry, didn't realize I hadn't answered the original question. As far as eating goes, I don't think the industry cares what you eat (I've usually seen people emphasizing eating healthily though) as long as you fit the above requirements.

In all honesty, I don't know, but judging from images and stuff, my guess is you can't overeat and stuff. Your diet is still restricted, just like the ordinary models, because you have to keep fit. You can see that the plus size models are all big, but all very... tight? Not uptight, but like, toned and stuff.
