Question
Hey
I'm 15, 5'8.5 and about 127 lbs. I'm extremely athletic and I really want to be a lululemon model! I can't find any information anywhere about becoming a lululemon model though do you know anything about it and if I have the right body to go into modeling?

Answer
One of Lululemon's current models and featured in their Runners World ad, Jenn Thiel, is an alumni ambassador at their Kitsilano store.  She is on the front page of their website:
http://www.lululemon.com/

Lululemon has ambassadors from many different places: http://lululemon.com/community/ambassadors
and the public can apply to be an ambassador on their website.

You can contact them to check if they use models outside of the company - all their contact info is also on their website.

Good luck to you,
~Kitty

Expertise

I can answer questions from those looking to get into the fashion or commercial modeling industry. Specifically, the requirements, what is needed, how to find an agent, what they look for, how to avoid scams, the difference between what a commercial model does, and a fashion model, would travel/relocation be required, what is on a comp card and in your portfolio.

Experience

Both my acting and modeling resume/portfolio is available online on my website. I am a member of the Screen Actors Guild, and also have available my actor's demo reel and voice-over demo online. I founded both the Florida-Models.com and Florida-Actors.com websites, which provide free modeling and acting info to the public. I have moved into directing, producing and screenwriting - and have won awards for my writing. I have worked in the industry as both a model and actress in Florida, New York City and Los Angeles until October 2007. I now reside in Europe.
