Hey /fa/.
So I've been thinking for a while that I want to become a model. Not like the shirtless Abercombie type shit, but like the guy that dresses in brands new clothing for look books and such.

I'm mainly interested in modeling clothing for streetwear brands like Supreme, Stussy, Vfiles, HBA, A Bathing Ape, The Hundreds, etc.

Now my question is, where would I even begin on this journey to do this?
What should I do, who should I contact with, who should I network with, and in general how could I get myself in this position?

I'm being serious, so serious replies would greatly help.

>6'
>140lbs
>18 y/o
>Black hair brown eyes

If this thread is to go anywhere further seriously, we need a front and preferably profile shot of face, and front on body.

6" you will likely scrape through in some places, but for street brands they typically go for taller models as their clothes have longer silhouettes. Having a taller model means they won't look like a hobbit with long tees / drop crotch.

this is true. And I'll work on getting pics now. But if you want pictures with legitimate outfits I'm gonna have to do that shit tomorrow

>>8748837
why would we need outfits? the pics are to see
a) whether your face is aesthetic enough to model. Sounds dumb considering you're modelling clothes, but if you don't have a 9/10 face you wont get hired. Just how the biz is.

b) see you're body and whether you need to gain/lose weight. If you're skinny, shouldn't be a problem.

cold honest truth? don't quit your day job. You might get modelling 'work' for your friends photography folio, or start up brands. But you ain't going to be modelling for stussy or supreme soz bro.

>> No.8748923

>>8748909
no offense taken. Obviously supreme and stussy would be a reach at this point.
But I want to hopefully work in the industry with these styles of clothing.
You think it's possible?

>> No.8748934

>>8748923

no, it's not possible. It'd be hard to even model for startups bro

>> No.8748937

>>8748923

nah you're a dime a dozen, you just look like typical middle eastern bro/10, only the shittiest of startup brands might hire you, and that's probably for free too, unpaid work

I thought I had a pretty decent looking face tho. This type of stuff is hard, cause in the end you're just a random person on the internet, so I feel like I should only take your words with a grain of salt

>> No.8748944

>>8748923
nah man, you can't. Your face doesn't match.
Face is round as fuck, no angles, nose is huge, mouth is squashed up to nose, mouth is small and can't see eyes so no comment.

not being a d-bag, but this is what you'll be told from scouts if you even get a response

lol don't flatter yourself dude it's time for a reality check

what's with middle easterns and their complex of thinking they're hot shit? like not even kidding, there's a shitload of persians where I live and a good majority of them have this mentality where they think they're sexy as fuck but just look like greasy ass hairy plebs

but no seriously op you look average as fuck and streetwear brands don't usually market to middle easterners / want that kind of brand image unless you're like a mixed looking middle eastern dude, and you just look full on middle eastern

mate, google mens model face. Compare to yours. Not being a cunt, but you have no similar attributes. even your ears a bit bigger in proportion to your face. All of this matters.

Your face is standard, I see 100 arab blokes like you at uni every day.
