Career wise modelling is not always a lucrative job unless you are successful.
The physical atttributes for girls for eligibility are:
Height- 5 feet 7 inches.
Good skin texture and lustrous hair.

Career in modelling is usually short lived unless you end up bagging roles in films.(provided you prefer acting as usually majority of models does).You get modelling assignments as long as you look good.For girls after a certain age like 40 plus , the career becomes bleak as designers would prefer younger models.

Thanks

Modelling : Eligibility

First the basic. A women needs to be at least five feets and ten inches. To began with one can approach the reputed modelling agencies with the portfolio of recent photographs. A good agency would frankly tell you whether you are a right person. Once chosen they groom you and help you choose assignments. You can also do the rounds of fashion magazines, advertisement agencies and even some ace designers. You can even mail your photographs to the agency's model coordinator.
