I am considering the plus-size modeling field but I do not know if I have the shape to become a lingerie model(34 inch waist 50 inch hips). Please no rude comments- any advise is appreciated.
Answer
A plus model is a model who is slightly larger than straight size fashion models, and she is used to sell clothing to plus size women.
General parameters for a plus model are height between 5'8" and 5'11", sizes 10 - 18. She must be a fit, toned, proportional hourglass, and have great skin and teeth, just like straight size models. A beautiful smile is a must. If a lady is 5'5" and 200 pounds she may be a plus size woman, but she is NOT a plus model
Unfortunately 50" hips puts you outside the parameters for plus size modelling. You would need to lose 5" from your hip measurement.
If you`re wanting to try modelling for the experience rather than for financial reasons you might want to try BBW work. It`s not an officially recognised modelling category - but many ladies do it.

do plus size models still have fashion shows?
tamra l
do plus size models still have fashion shows or are they just commercial and print models?
I asked this because I had my IMTA (international modeling and talent agency) audition yesterday and he said that dont plan on being a model unless your the sample size, 2&4, but what about plus size girls like myself, do i still plan on modeling
Answer
The only type of fashion shows for Plus Size models might be if Lane Bryant has a fashion show in a local mall, or some other plus size label has a trunk show at Salon Z at Saks. But there is nothing like New York or Paris Fashion Week when it comes to plus size. The vast majority of plus size work is in catalogs catering to plus size or large busted women or print work.
