Most
of these men are 6'1" aspiring models I contacted on
ModelMayhem.com .
Too bad all the men on this page are slightly shorter than I am. That's why
they're marked with the red sign of shame at right. But they are just
too perfect looking to get the boot so I hope you'll excuse me for including
them dear reader.
Unfortunately the fashion industry has no interest
in marketing men 6'3" or taller because there just aren't enough men
that big to buy clothes. A male model doing runway work needs to
fit into off the rack clothing and so nobody in modeling is very tall
(at least by my standards). Plus, tall men are intimidating and
why would you want to make your customers feel like they don't measure
up compared to your models?
If a model IS tall and gets a lot of
work that tells you he is easy to deal with and is getting hired over
and over again despite being a bit too big.
