Can you tell me your calf and thigh measurements or do you know what are the ideal thigh and calf measurements for modelling?

I am a model, but I don't know my calf and thigh measurements, and there is not "ideal" thigh and calf measurements for modeling. Everyone has their own unique look.

Anyone can be a model, measurement are completly flexable, as long as they have the right attitude and are happy with the work, and don't expect overnight success. If you are actually thinking about it here is some advise.
I have heard a lot of bad thing about SOME (not all) modelling agencies and how they make you pay for photos and photo sessions before they take you on then never give you any work. Always check with the local Better Business Bureau.
I think a better starting place before you go to agencies is if you have a friend who is reasonable with a camera (do not have to be a professional or even that good just okay) Just take 100 photos of yourself in different poses, clothing and backgrounds then pick out 10-20 nice photos. You can then use this as a portfolio, and even better instead of printing them which cost you money every time, host them on a website and get some business cards print with the website address on and just hand these out instead. This is a far cheaper way of doing it and with no RISK. You should never have to pay to get a job if you do there is a high chance it is a scam.
However if you would like a personal portfolio site please contact me and I will set you on up for free. I can design you a fully personalised flash website with as much or little information and then host it for you. This site can contain a gallery of your photos, personal information, list of work, contact details, etc or if you prefer just a couple of photos and nothing else. It can be password protected and all images will be protected as is humanly possible, or the photos can be available to download.
Examples of work can be provided on request. Just message me here if you want, I am a professional website designer but have lots of free time (and enough money) so I am currently doing free sites for small bands, small artist etc, basically anyone who could not afford them otherwise. I have my own hosting server so can offer hosting servers or you can host the site yourselves. No images sent to me will be used for anything other than your site and I will not give anyone your detail or link to the site. You will have complete control and the site can be removed or changed at any time. This is not a scam and I will design a site for FREE, I do not need the money, and enjoy working. If you do want it message me you can tell me what you want and how you want it done and I will help.
Depending how old you are I may require parents permission before i will do any work.

That is not a requirement in modeling to know those type of measurements. It seems anal to be worried about the little things. I would be more worried about the "look" you want to portray and the energy you send out when you walk into the room.
Agencies are looking for that special something that draws the crowd. They don't like it when you try so hard. Natural energy and sex appeal is what they are going for.....Good Luck to you!

There's no real ideal measurements; it all depends on the body you have; it should be relative to that. For example if you are tall and thin, it's ok. If you're tall and have larger calves and they are tone, then that's fine too. It's about the body type you have and the look you are going for.
