Thank you for letting your readers know about the Cherished Model Search. The reason we don’t use size 12 models is that they look too skinny in pictures and don’t appear to be plus size to the full-figured consumer. We don’t mean to discriminate against size 12 models – but our customers like seeing models with more curves.
Thank you again for posting about our model search!
Sincerely,
Nancy Baum

We know, Nancy and we understand the plight. We just think it’s a shame, that’s all. ;)

This is an interesting debate, the poor size 12 ladies of the world, crazy when you consider this is possibly the most popular size of all! So, if you look at it like that, no one is catering for the majority of the population! I would agree though that they do not fit the profile of a plus size… Fresh Agents Models agency has many size 12 commercial models, I guess it all depends on how tall they are to go with it, if you are a 5’7 or over and a size 12 and are a commercial model or looking for one, you should check out http://www.freshagents.co.uk
If nothing else, perusing the the talent makes for an enjoyable coffee break!

I’d like to be a plus-size model, but I’m 5ft. Is there any market for the petite, full-figure model?
