the term "plus sized model"
If a female foot model is 5'10", 135# but has a size 14 shoe... would that make her a "plus size" model? Mar 10 06 01:03 pm Link I'm no expert, but I doubt it. That just means she has larger than average feet. She is 5'10"...Maybe she needs the extra foot length for balance. Mar 10 06 01:21 pm Link If she wore a size 14 dress, she's be on the small end of Plus Size. (I think most are 5'10"-5'11" and a size 16.) At 135 lbs... sounds like a 4/6? That is a lot smaller than 16. Mar 10 06 03:45 pm Link actually, i have done a bit of plus-size. it all starts at a size 10...seems strange since size 10 is not a plus size, but i dont control it. a large foot...well, doesnt make one plus-size...but may work great for some fetish shots!!! lol.

I am absolutely "too big" for runway (the image makes me giggle), or fitness (except maybe as a "before" picture) or most commercial (though the Snapple lady was pretty chunky), but I can do stock if I want to, and as an art model I can pretty much be whomever I like.

Mar 10 06 06:48 pm Link Is she a clown? I hear Ringling Bros pays very well! LOL Mar 10 06 07:05 pm Link Ian Weintraub wrote: Dress size 15 is for short girls (under 5'6"). If she were taller she would wear a 14 or 16. Consequently, no, a size 15 girl is not a plus model, because plus models have to be tall. Mar 10 06 07:39 pm Link Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as the old saying goes... but still, i'm a 6'3 guy and I have a size 14 foot...i'm a little creeped out that a woman would have the same size foot as me. Different strokes for different folks Mar 10 06 09:13 pm Link Deucalion wrote: ummmmm you do know that a 14 size shoe is a different size for a woman. Not the same as for a man. As for the original question. What does a size shoe have to do with wieght? A woman can have long feet and be skinny. Mar 11 06 12:45 am Link TXPhotog wrote: No, odd sized are junior's cuts. They're not shorter, but they are narrower in the hip/thigh thaneven (women's) sizes. Mar 11 06 01:00 am Link Ian Weintraub wrote: How big is her penis? Mar 11 06 01:02 am Link Are there plus sized male models? Not that I know of. Something to think about. Mar 11 06 01:09 am Link a size 14 foot is HUGE! but it doesnt make her a plus model. at 135 shes probably not fashion material but too small to be plus. 135 at 5'10 is thin for a normal woman of this height but we arent talking normal here, were talking about models Mar 11 06 11:23 am Link Nerlande wrote: bigger than mine!
