Uh. Vanilla means universal. Like vanilla ice cream.

Ah... Sorry. Perhaps I should rephrase the question.

Depends on the type of modeling. For high fashion modelling I think the average for a woman is 5'10 or 11, and men 6'1 or 2. For commerical modelling it's much less stringent, but they like their models to be at least 5'6 (for a woman).

[Chief16]

So. For men, over 6' is a safe height? And for women over 5'10?

[itsallover]

For high fashion yes.

[Chief16]

Nice to know.

[Laura12345laura]

For high fashion walk 5'11.5 is not enough? For males

[itsallover]

@Laura12345laura I don't think the rules for males are as strict. But they prefer guys who are at least 6ft.

[Chief16]

Yeah. 6'2 seems to be very common these days.

[Laura12345laura]

I don't seem to understand, since there is almost no difference from a 5'11' guy next to a 6'1' guy hahaha. A 5'11 guy next to a 6'2 guy there is a slighly difference though

[Chief16]

@Laura12345laura Barely any visible difference between 6'1 and 6'2.

[itsallover]

@Laura12345laura Well that goes for all heights...

[Laura12345laura]

What do you mean?

[mooky06]

Commercial models
Female= 5'8 and lower
Males= At least 5'9

Catwalk (high end)
Female= 5'8 and higher
Male= 5'11 and higher

[Chief16]

I thought 5'11 was average.

[mooky06]

For male commercial or male catwalk? Minimum is 5'9. Nothing lesser then that. 5'9 and higher

[Nuqood]

I'm guessing:

6'2" for men
5' 9" for women

[Chief16]

Nice guess.

[dolphiny]

i think for girl its at least 5'8
for a boy i'm not sure. probably 6 ft

[justbanANNAz]

wtf is vanilla height?

[Chief16]

Oye, just go along with it ok. I know its my bad. I was thinking about something else when I typed that.

[justbanANNAz]

I'm actually asking.

[justbanANNAz]

ohhh i get u ok. saw ur update. like 5'8"- 5'9" usually.

[Jxpxtxr]

I think around 5'10"/5'11"

[Chief16]

For whom basically, male of female?

[Jxpxtxr]

Well I'm 5'10" and most female models I know are around my height or slightly taller even ~ male models are slightly taller, too, about 6' usually

[BrownBoyBrownies]

LOL what do you mean by vanilla?

[Chief16]

Sigh. I should've have meant versatile.

[BrownBoyBrownies]

Oh okay. It's okay. I got it now :)
