IANA DAHLIA'S Models and Supermodels Have You Got What It Takes to Be a Successful Model? is a welcome title aimed at the aspiring model. It takes an honest look at what it takes to be a model or a supermodel. Former model turned television producer Diana Dahlia relays her experience of the industry in a clear and easily understood fashion, while the book itself is well complemented by photographs of models and their everyday work. There is also information on having a career plan, nutrition and exercise, and starting out.
The book goes beyond catwalk modelling: it details editorial, house, part and character modelling as alternatives, and gives useful advice on dealing with agencies, schedules and photographers. Models and Supermodels is, in essence, a book which lives up to and goes beyond its claim. It succeeds in being a practical and structured guide to the industry. All those planning to enter the modelling profession would do well to have this title on their bookshelves.
