Do you have to weigh a certain amount to model?

Yes, exactly 3 pounds and 2 ounces. No of course not! Not a particular weight, as I understand it, but those whose dimensions and proportions match one of the industry standard sizes will have an advantage. Off-the-rack clothes will fit nicely without alteration. ive been in modeling for several years now and it depends on the companie and what there looking for they might need plus size models or run way models which in that case you must weigh i think for most companies its 120 lbs. i stay between 115 and 120. I'm overweight (200 pounds, but losing some), and I was offered a job with a talent agency that did mostly modeling associated(sp?) things. They are many modeling jobs that dont care about your weight, or look for overweight people for Plus Size modeling.
