How to Become a Plus-Sized Model

Create Your Portfolio When you're first breaking into the industry, you won’t need a full portfolio to begin making inquiries. Instead, concentrate on photographs that show your natural beauty and that aren’t particularly staged or posed. Aim for at least one high-quality face shot and a full-body shot in simple, flattering attire.

Note: If you have poor-quality photographs, it's advised to arrive at the agency without photographs. If you are a beginning model and show potential, many agencies will understand.

Victoria Maposa For for African Gem Women's Magazine

I just need to let everyone know that i take modelling seriously and i need to bring a revolution into the Zimbabwean modelling industry. It's high time that someone steps up and let's people know that beauty has nothing to do with your size or height. Curvy people need to be accepted and it starts right here and right now!

Anyway, i did a photoshoot for for African Gem Women's Magazine some time back and i've decided to upload the photos. Enjoy!
