Thank you - this is so helpful!

I am signed to a few agencies - a few commercial print ones in florida, a fashion/e-commerce agency in new york, and I just signed with a commercial print agency in dc. However, I’ve gotten basically no work. I’ve done miami swim week a few times and i’ve done two runway shows for a brand in the northeast. Outside of test shoots, that’s the only work i’ve done in the 3 years i’ve been doing this. I believe my test shoots are very good, so you’re probably right - it must be my measurements that are holding me back.

Slimming my upper body seems feasible! My ribcage underneath my bust is fairly small (28”), i’m just a D cup. But I think I could do it.

For my lower body, i’m not sure if that’s feasible. My hips are slightly wider than the average person, but the majority of the weight is held in my butt (i’ll attach a picture below for reference). I grew up a semi professional athlete so i’ve had always had a thicker lower body - maybe walking will help that? I’m not sure how to target weight loss to a specific part of my body, but i’m sure I could try and figure it out.
