  1. You have to go to an agency. There are plenty that do modeling/acting/etc.

    I know of one; John Robert Powers.

    http://www.johnrobertpowers.net/

    be aware its expensive, and only a few make it big.


  2. Did you hear about the supermodel who's career ending when she was 16 because she wasn't a size zero?  She was beautiful, but not skinny enough.

  3. Runway no way.

    At 15 you are done growing, and 5'7'' is def. not tall enough for runway.  5'9'' is considered short for runway  

  4. Start as a model for stores, then magazines, etc.

  5. Start getting your picture taken by photograghers and build a portfolio.  You can send it to modeling agrents and they'll call you in for an interveiw if they like what they see.  It'll be hard work but good luck!  

  6. okay well a noraml catwalk mondel(they do make excepsions somthimes) are 5'9, very thin, flat chested. a desinger needs to think you can show off there look. but have personailty and take classes and it might help

    commerical (they do make excepsions somthimes) are 5'7 and all shape...this field is easier. depends on the company you could do khols, jcpenny, macy, h&m it depends whos your working for

    go to a modeling school

  8. It is extremely hard to become a model, especially if you're so short. Usually they want really tall girls, and 5' 7" just isn't going to cut it. Wait until you grow out your height.

    Even if you are pretty, you have to have EVERYTHING, including a great runway walk, be able to take great pictures, etc. Otherwise, you're a one-time girl.

    Overall, don't keep high hopes. Being a model is every girl's dream, but 99% of the time it will not happen.

  9. ur to short for runway. u have to be at LEAST 5'9. I dont know what you look like, but u can try commercial. Editorial is almost inpossible to become..so u should try commercial..and be completley honest with yourself. again 5'7 might be to short depending on the agency..even for commercial because they base the height on ur age. give it a try though. Based on what you told me..Ford Models would probably be ur best try.

    Ford Models agency holds open calls, or u can send pics of urself to them. All the information is on their website www.fordmodels.com

    if you choose to send pics. make sure that u were no makeup..and have ur hair completly pulled back. make sure that everything is simple, the background, clothes, even ur expression. You should have a total of three pics. one of your entire body..one with a serious face..and one with u smiling.

    good luck!
