Plus-size model

Plus-size model is a term applied to a person who is engaged primarily in modeling plus-size clothing. Plus-size models also engaged in work that is not strictly related to selling large-sized clothing, e.g., stock photography and advertising photography for cosmetics, household and pharmaceutical products and sunglasses, footwear and watches. Therefore plus-size models do not exclusively wear garments marketed as plus-size clothing. This is especially true when participating in fashion editorials for mainstream fashion magazines.The requirements for female plus-size models are no different from those of other models, except for larger and differently proportioned bust-waist-hip measurements; the minimum acceptable height is generally no shorter than 5'9"/175.3 cmand they must have clear skin, good bone structure and a well-proportioned body.Synonymous and interchangeable with plus-size model is "full-figured model," "extended-sizes model," and "outsize model".
