A “Part” model is
a model who specializes in modeling certain body parts such as the legs, feet,
hands, or back-basically any part of the body, but rarely the face. Parts
models can be hired to do a variety of work-editorial work, advertising, TV
commercials, catalogs, even films. Parts models generally don’t meet the
requirements to be fashion models- maybe they’re not tall enough or don’t have
the right look- but they have at least one standout part, such as beautiful hands,
gorgeous legs, or perfect feet.
Aside from having the
physical qualifications of a great part, an aspiring parts model needs to have
plenty of patience and the ability to keep her part still while photographers
adjust lights, backdrops, and props to get ready to shoot.
Parts models generally get started a little older than
regular models; between the ages of 18 and 20 is common. As long as your part
stays beautiful, you could model for up to 25 years or more is common. The work can be
very intense and tedious, yet it can be a long, lucrative career for someone
with fantastic legs, stand out feet, or lovely hands.
