With many high street stores now offering fashion for petite figures, a large market for shorter models has opened up in the modelling industry. Petite models are able to find work in many areas of the business including commercials, fit modelling, trade shows and swimwear.
Finding petite clothing and shoes has never been easier and neither has becoming a petite model. Petite models are usually around 5'5" to 5'7", sizes 6 to 10. And with any type of modelling, petite models need to have clear skin and have a healthy, well proportioned body.

I see a lot of models are smokers. Will smoking help me to manage my weight?
