Pros And Cons Of Becoming A Victoria Secret Model

Improved Essays
I found a How to become a Victoria Secret Model. To become an angel, you need to have good luck on your side, perfect body and beauty. There should not be idea numbers for a model’s measurements but this how too, there is numbers. Nobody under the age of 18 can apply, which I think that is a good age. What will help you a lot is have agencies see you. Have lots of face and nobody snapshots on hand with a resume of modeling experience. Going to well-known companies will help also getting your name out there and a foot in the door. If you are rejected chances are you could, don’t give up. Don’t try the damaging opinions to try and be picked the next time. The biggest thing they say is being skinny be alethic. 110 pounds at the height of 5’9 which …show more content…
Beauty is on the inside as well as out. There is nothing wrong with sweet and fatty foods, I agree work out if you eat these but none at all, I think is a choice, shouldn’t be a demand. Woman can still be a model but will need to hire help to keep and maintain weight and healthy eating habits. Have your face be known, be on a cover of a magazine’s after the age of 18. An ideal age for modeling is 18-30, either too young or to old, being any age with beauty should be good enough. Take the modeling career serious, no staying out late, be professional and friendly. Going out in a customer service line of work, I hope people would be mature enough anyways. The idealist model is tall, blonde and blue eyed. The audience is very young, gullible youthful female. Some woman goes to great extremes to be an …show more content…
The idea weight, height and measurements are not realistic. Young woman go through extremes to be those idea numbers. There are eating disorders, using laxatives and water pills to lost weight fast. By doing those things it can harm the body and is so unhealthy. There is also suicide in this profession. Young girls get rejected from hearing lose 10 pounds and get a boob job then come back. There is no fixing that harm mentally done to the lady. Depression is another thing that can come from being told how to act, what to eat. If you are blessed to have been born tall, skinny and just a face for the camera, you’re very lucky. Most women are not lucky but them going to the great links to be that ideal image. Changing the skinny, blue eyed, big breasted model image would change society. A heavy woman is beautiful also; we are all beautiful in our own way. If society changed its idea woman figure, so many younger ladies would not try to kill themselves for being made fun of because they weigh 110 pounds and 5’4. Some ladies wouldn’t get so depressed and stop loving life because they don’t look like the model on cover girl. Having our models a realistic weight and look would make a big difference in many lives. Being perfect and idea weight to be an Angel model isn’t realist. What this article is saying, thin models do inspire damaging effects in other young women if you are not the idea numbers. The effect on young girls

    Saying that although the idealization certain kinds of bodies can cause anxieties and depression, could there be a positive side to it. These images of hyper thin models could carry “fantasized solutions to our anxieties and insecurities, and that's part of the reason why they are powerful. They speak to us not just about how to be beautiful or desirable, but about how to get control of our lives, get safe, be cool, and avoid hurt”(2).

    The largest downfall of the existing procedures is that they are optional. Unless the fashion industry will benefit from the recommendations, they will not change their current policies. Hiring larger models, providing healthcare and supervising their well-being, is inconvenient and seen as unnecessary to many agencies. The first step to making a change in model health and implementing a successful policy is requiring agencies to follow the procedures, by making it a law. The legislation should include a BMI minimum, like many current policies, but the BMI should not be alone in the law.…

    The article states “Eating patterns that an individual may have found to be integral in the maintenance of a particular shape during her modelling career may lead to deleterious health consequences and maladaptive eating behaviours that affect her far beyond the typically rather short years of such a career.” first of all modelling covers a wide variety of avenues. The author uses the word “her” implying that only women can be models which is blatantly untrue, this not only shows ignorance but potentially even sexism that only invalidates the article based on the sexual bias.
