My sex life is OK. I see a lot of asexual-looking ladies at work. Depending on where I am, being a male model can be a pussy drier or a pussy wetter.

Worst thing is probably makeup, the face that everyone assumes you're gay, the pretentious designers, etc.

Best thing: I like what I do, I'm making a fair bit of dough, I get free clothes (though not as much as you might think).

Favorite designer was either Ralph Lauren when he did Cary Grant or OG Givenchy (not today's Givenchy).

At the parties everyone's doing cocaine but I just drink. I've done cocaine a handful of times but you never reach your peak so it's so addictive. Fuck that.

Funny because only in the last 3 years I've been considered handsome. I'm 19 and people called me ugly until I was 14 then when I was around 16 girls started calling me "tumblr boy" and when the school photos were taken that year a handful of girls said that their mothers had said that I'm very handsome, which I thought was funny.
I mean it feels pretty good. I always know that even when I'm at my lowest I still look good.
When I'm feeling depressed it always makes me feel better when I see girls checking me out in public.
But then again looks/money/material items only make up 10% of overall happiness.

Beer has too may calories? What kind of stupid BS is that?

90% of the calories in beer is from the alcohol, that means 10% leftover is carbs.

If you're drinking beer that's 100 calories, the same amount of alcohol from a shot is going to be 90 calories.

There are 175 calories in a 12oz bottle of my favorite beer.

There are only 100 calories in a shot of whiskey.

If you have six beers in a night, that's 1,050 calories.

If you have six shots of whiskey instead it's only 600 calories.

Yeah, most of the models I've worked with are idiots - but there are exceptions to the rule. However, most of the models have no plans to educate themselves which I found to be rather depressing. I do recall a runway class, shortly after I was signed, after which I was criticized for being "a thinker", lolol.

>get a job
I really like to travel, and modeling has let me do that a good bit.

really haven't been bad for me. at all. only thing thats lame is having to be 200% obsessed with every little detail of appearance - it helps with da ladies bc i always had to "look like a model", but it was exhausting

i'm in a contract with an agency, it's like 50/50 so nobody's the boss, i pay them, but they give me work and direct me, i work for ysl in the sense that i'm exclusive with them and always have been, so i can't promote any other brands, but i can still be in magazines etc. My agency sets up everything, i don't do any work, i just get emails or phone calls asking if i'm available for a certain date, they then organise it with the client (be it magazine, photographer or brand) and then they send me all the details that i need to know.

It's really annoying because they decide what i need to know, for example I don't get a lot of information that i'd like

does that clear it up? I model for an agency, i get paid by ysl to work for them, in my own case they've paid me a lot more to only work for them, but i pay my agency a cut as if they were my receptionist or something because they do all my leg work, i just board the planes and go to the shoots etc

The YSL girls are portrayed as being this super exclusive clique of super talented girls, but I don't really like them, they're up themselves and think they're so cool and random and crazy and they're snobby. The YSL parties suck because Hedi takes photos, most of the models all whore out for the camera, and you can probably tell, they all act crazy and wild to get exposure or to be in the next show, and it's sooo uncool and lame when you're watching them pretend to fall over and take ages to get back up because they want a photo, even the street cast kids do it, so there's only a few cool down to earth people in the YSL lot, but they're super, and also we're the ones who get more work funnily enough which is what I was saying about the personality, because I don't whore out for him I think he wants to get to know me better, or atleast knows that I'm genuine, and I've been asked to go to LA so they can design the new collection on me, so fuck you snobby models hahaha

He's a funny guy, he's quiet and is work orientated, but he's polite, and actually really sweet, the team he has is tiny and he's very close to all of them, and he likes his models to fit into that little family, I get on well with him because I can speak okay French so it's fun to converse with him, also we like similar shit, so when I was in the YSL studio he caught me taking pictures of the place which is absolutely not allowed, but I told him I like architecture, and so he explained how and why he designed it, and he takes a lot of photos on his iPhone which I think he uses for personal reasons which I find really endearing, so if I'm chatting to a stylist he might suddenly take a picture of us talking and make no deal about it

a very american look, slightly fem, i like it but very forgettable, it kinda depends also on your eyes.

i can see you getting something like Hollister, Express, etc. maybe Levi's but I highly doubt anything high end, you look like a less appealing Nicholas Hoult.

i kinda get how i could be unremarkable. can't complain about not standing out or looking weird though.

anything i could or should do to stand out more? play the lucky b card and dye my hair a stupid color?

i've got a 27 inch or so waist though with my height. maybe a chance of slp type stuff? or runway in general. just personal preference as i'd generally only consider modeling in order to potentially make some fashion industry connections. i'm definitely no luxury print-ad face or anything near that though

not samefig but the agency you're applying for will have the picture requirements on their website in contact us.
If they dont then full front, face front, portrait (full side), face side and a full front with shirt off (if you think its an important feature for you) or bikini shot if you're a woman ought to cover it.

otherwise just find out their office hours and go in.

apply to as many as possible.

not him but for fashion modeling 5'10 could *usually* (this is an industry of outliers) only do print, agencies probably wont be willing to take a chance on you, most have height requirements in their contact info (and its getting higher).

**Knew a guy who wasnt 6 feet and still did hugo boss and some other noteables.

fashion modeling age:

for women you're done aft 23 unless you're somebody by then. ~15-20 (because laws) is usually prime age

for men you should apply as young as possible, many say ~22 is cut off but mens careers last far far longer so they will take people over that, but you should lie.
