Have you ever had the desire to be a model, but thought it was beyond you because you simply are not thin enough. The fact of the matter is just the opposite is true. Plus size models are in great demand given the fact most women do not have rail thin bodies. The question, of course, is how do you become one?

The first thing to understand is the dolls industry is not an easy one. It can be glamorous, but it can also be brutal. The level of competitiveness and politicking can make a Presidential campaign look like a local tea party. Does that mean you shouldn't go for it?

Okay, you've identified the agencies you want to approach. Now what? Well, it depends. If you have a very unique look, you can try just walking into an agency and asking for an interview. The agency may view you as just another girl or a diamond in the rough. Still, you won't know until you try.

A more traditional approach is to build up a portfolio before going to the agency. Many women mistakenly try to use traditional poses in their portfolio. This is a mistake because most agencies are looking for women who are naturally photographic, not accomplished at posing. Most advertising campaigns and shows will go with natural looks as opposed to static posturing as well. In short, be yourself. You might even try renting a season of one of the modeling reality television shows for some hints.

The world of modeling can be glamorous and fun for women of any size. Know what you are getting into and make sure to keep a positive attitude regardless of how tough it gets at time.
