Editorial Reviews

Product Description
This is what every aspiring model, male or female, needs: candid, inside, and illustrated information about how to get started in this competitive field. The advice comes from those in the know, including top models, agencies, fashion editors, makeup artists, and health professionals. The opportunities for success are better than you might think, as an overview of different specialties reveal; they range from men’s, women’s, and teens’ fashion to mature, plus-size, and even body-paint modeling. Get the scoop on seeking representation, selecting a photographer, and maintaining a long-lasting career. Spend a week in a model’s shoes to see what the work is really like. Along the way, the experts debunk myths about the profession and shed light on common scams that plague the industry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for any model, beginning or pro...., October 2, 2004
By K. Murphy "Model Fan" (Chicago, Il, United States) - See all my reviews
I loved this book because it gave me specific advice about all the different types of models, and the specific requirements for each specialty. It had interesting and informative stories, directly from supermodels, agents, and magazine editors. It also had beautiful color photographs illustrating poses, and "behind the scenes" of photoshoots. I would reccomend it to any beginning model, the parent of a model, or a model looking to come to NYC.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incredible Book!, August 19, 2005
A must have for anyone who is wanting to become a model. This book offers insight information that is both vital and informative. The authors, Eric Bean and Jenni Bidner illustrate this book with fantastic photographs and beautifully written compositions of what should be expected by models and what is expected of them. I absolutely love this book and recommend that anyone who is even faintly interested in the subject manner should read this book. It is truely a fascinating read.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Loved the interview with Supermodel, Carmen Dell'Orefice., June 2, 2005
It was really informative hearing from a model who has modeled for 50+ years. I recently saw Carmen Dell'Orefice in a runway show in NYC, and she looks great. Great interview, great photos.
