I tried looking for a thread specifically on this topic but couldn’t find it.
Why do certain models become highly sought after and others never attain much success? Is it simply an angency thing? Looks? Personality? Connections?
Asking this question in relation to older generations, such as the Supers of the 90s, and for current generations, including this social media modelling gen.
I saw Paloma Elsesser got discovered by Pat McGrath and then subsequently started a pretty successful career as a plus-sized model. Most of the model career stories I’ve read seem quite random and incidental.
I’m genuinely curious as to why some just blow up. Any comments/answers would be appreciated. This is my first thread by the way, so I’m sorry if I made any errors or messed up somewhere.
