The industry is infamous for its strict requirements, it has left little room for anyone who doesn&#8217;t meet these standards. That means a huge demographic has not been represented on the runway or in publications for a very long time.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The modelling industry has always seen women receive more success than men. Plus-size women have been enjoying a rise in demand for a number of years, but plus-size men have struggled to get a look-in. That is, until recently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the past 5 years, plus-size men have finally been given the chances they deserve to be noticed in modelling. We are starting to see people celebrating body diversity, leading to better mental health and a sense of inclusivity and more representation in the mainstream media.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10599\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1148182436-104x69.jpg 104w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-a-plus-size-male-model\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_Plus-Size_Male_Model\"><\/span>What is a Plus-Size Male Model?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus-size doesn&#8217;t just refer to someone who is curvier. It also refers to tall men who are above the industry average, or who has broader shoulders. The modelling industry, in particular high fashion, has always been incredibly strict about what it will and won&#8217;t accept. Male models over a certain height, or those who don&#8217;t fit into a standard jacket, won&#8217;t have had possibilities before. But now, we are seeing more and more modelling agencies accept plus-size male models.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-plus-size-divisions\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Plus-Size_Divisions\"><\/span>Plus-Size Divisions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Modelling agencies have even started to create specific divisions for those who don&#8217;t meet the &#8220;regular&#8221; standards. Female plus-size divisions have been a thing for a while, but male plus-size divisions &#8211; known as &#8216;brawn divisions&#8217; &#8211; are relatively new. They give plus-size male models a chance to get signed and find more modelling work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"592\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-1024x592.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-1024x592.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-768x444.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-1536x888.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-108x62.jpg 108w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1213082863-78x44.jpg 78w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-plus-size-male-models-in-the-media\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Plus-Size_Male_Models_in_the_Media\"><\/span>Plus-Size Male Models in the Media<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Zach Miko<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Steven Martin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Scott Bayliss<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Kelvin Davis<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Nemar Parchment<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Bruce Sturgell<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-are-the-requirements-for-plus-size-male-models\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Requirements_for_Plus-Size_Male_Models\"><\/span>What Are the Requirements for Plus-Size Male Models?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The requirements for plus-size male models aren&#8217;t very clear. They change depending on which modelling agency you look at, and which brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is both a good and a bad thing. It means that your favourite agency might have strict requirements. But it also means that other agencies will have different thoughts and opinions, giving you more of a chance.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do your research beforehand to figure out which agencies you suit best. Make these agencies a priority when applying. Keep track of who and when you applied to, and remember that it&#8217;s perfectly acceptable to re-apply in another 6 months or so if you don&#8217;t hear anything back.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_783140134-104x69.jpg 104w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-getting-into-plus-size-modelling\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Getting_Into_Plus-Size_Modelling\"><\/span>Getting Into Plus-Size Modelling<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as being smart about who you apply to, you will need an excellent modelling portfolio. This will help you stand out from the competition and show off your experience and expertise.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t yet have any modelling experience, don&#8217;t panic. It&#8217;s a good idea to volunteer for a couple of jobs just to build your portfolio of work. You can also look into hiring a photographer for a professional photoshoot. This will give you valuable experience in a proper setting, and you&#8217;ll also be given the opportunity to purchase your favourite photos at the end of the shoot for inclusion in your portfolio.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-advice-for-aspiring-male-plus-size-models\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Advice_for_Aspiring_Male_Plus-Size_Models\"><\/span>Advice for Aspiring Male Plus-Size Models<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Give your exposure a boost by having a good social media presence. Instagram and <a href=\"https:\/\/insense.pro\/blog\/how-to-become-tiktok-famous-in-2021-grow-your-following-now\">TikTok<\/a> in particular are great places to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Be ready to travel a lot if you don&#8217;t live in a major city like London.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Networking is vital, so be kind and courteous to everyone you meet, especially when working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Get as much posing practice as you can. The more comfortable you are posing and the better you understand your body, the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8211; Try to attend every audition and casting call that you are invited to. Doing so shows you are serious about the profession. Not doing so makes you look flakey and will result in your competition being more highly valued.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-are-you-looking-to-get-into-male-plus-size-modelling-register-with-us-today-no-experience-required\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_you_looking_to_get_into_male_plus-size_modelling_Register_with_us_today_%E2%80%93_no_experience_required\"><\/span>Are you looking to get into male plus-size modelling? <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/\">Register with us today &#8211; no experience required!<\/a><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10602\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-scaled.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.ukmodels.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/shutterstock_1607362450-103x69.jpg 103w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plus-size male models are becoming a big deal in the fashion industry.
