We look at photographs of long-legged beauties and begin to find fault with ourselves even more: there is excess weight, and the volumes are not the same, and the chest could have been bigger (smaller). And someone was lucky to be born a beauty. But is it?
Of course, they were lucky – nature has awarded them with a strong single-minded character, self-discipline and hard work. A lot of physical activity and always a tough diet – at a time when most schoolgirls, without even thinking, ate buns at breaks, washed down with sweet tea.
But beauty is an unpredictable and capricious thing, the requirements for the appearance of models change almost every decade. Twenty years ago, agencies hired girls with a height of 180 cm and with parameters 90-60-90, but now this rule is not so strict. If you look critically, all the highest paid stars of the modeling business have deviations from the standards. In fairness, let’s say that not only a written beauty can become a model, but also a girl with shapes or non-standard appearance.
See how successful the socialite is Kim Kardashian… With her height of 157 cm, she has a meter in bust and 86 cm in hips. This impudent trendsetter does not think to hide the extra volume, on the contrary, she reveals and shows in every possible way, teasing the conservative public.
Puffy girls are now more than ever in favor with the public and designers: Ashley Graham, Crystal Rennes, Mila Dalbezio, Anansa Sims… Spanish woman on the same list Tara Lynn, which is also fighting for the rights of corpulent ladies. She knows what she is talking about: her roundness is 116 cm, her waist is 86 cm. And by the way, glossy magazines publish professional photography of models, besides, the photo is additionally processed in Photoshop. And in life, fullness is accompanied by uneven skin, cellulite, “floating” forms. Everything is like ordinary people.

But back to the modeling business. Suffers from excess weight Gigi Hadid, one of the most sought-after and beautiful models in the world. With her parameters, everything seems to be fine (86-64-89), but fans or agents no, no, and they will see something superfluous. The girl reacts calmly to comments, they say, I’m proud of my graceful waist, lush bust and hips.
Even the sexiest woman on the planet, according to Maxim magazine, Kate Apton fights with spiteful critics who accuse her of being overweight and call her “mumps”. The model has a figure that is slightly non-standard for her profession (90-62-85), but what a feminine one. “I am a healthy person, I eat and enjoy life, unlike many who prefer unhealthy thinness and therefore embittered all over the world,” says the blonde with blue eyes.
We don’t know about the bitterness of thin women, but among the models there are enough of those who can be called very slim. As a rule, with an asthenic body type, angularity of forms without feminine curves, a boyish figure, no chest and a large foot are observed (41-42). The designers are satisfied: the clothes look perfect on tall and thin girls, but this is hardly applicable to everyday life. True, now, in the heyday of plastic surgery and cosmetology, it is already difficult at first glance to distinguish between natural beauty and where it is corrected by specialists. If you look only at the data, then the American models differ by excessive thinness Carly Closse (height – 187 cm, and weighs only 59 kg) or Polish model Magdalena Frakovyak… With a height of 180 cm, it weighs about 55 kg.

But not all girls from the podium in the literal sense of the word reach 180 cm. History knows many examples of a successful career, even with a shorter growth. For example, Kate Moss, one of the 10 best top models in England and the world. At 45, she is still in the ranks, participates in shows and photo shoots. According to some reports, her fees amount to over $ 4 million a year. Meanwhile, Kate is only 170 cm tall.
And Victoria’s Secret angels often do not exceed 176 cm in height: Miranda Kerr и Alessandra Ambrosio – 176 cm, Barbara Palvin – 173 cm. By the way, Hungarian Barbara is also a representative of a feminine figure with rounded shapes (weight – 63 kg, hips – 93 cm, and waist – 66 cm). And Miranda Kerr carefully masks the lack of a waist. AND Cara Delevingne cannot boast of a model height – she has 173 cm.
In general, you understand – everything in this world is relative. Beauty is even more so. The main thing is to be confident in your irresistibility, to run out in the morning for a run and to love the right foods. Models do just that!
