Kendall Jenner took to her official app to talk about her experience with modeling, how she never took any modeling classes, how she learned to model, and what advice she would give to aspiring young models!
She said, “I never took any modeling classes. It was definitely something I just had to learn over time. Honestly, I think the only way you really learn how to model is just experiencing it and being involved in it, doing different shoots. I never really had a desire to take classes either, it was just 100 percent experience.”
“If anything, my agents helped me figure out and refine my walk. Before I started seriously modeling, I would watch all the ’90s supermodels and kind of copy what they did. So, when I went in for the first time to show my walk to my agents, it was that hip-sway strut. They were like, “No, no, no! Times have changed!” After that, it took time to find and perfect my own walk, which is more current.”
“When I first started out, I was stiff and trying really hard to do a specific walk. Then, once I got more comfortable with myself and my career, I kind of mixed the new with what I had learned before to create a happy medium. I love my walk now-I’ve found one that I think fits my style of today.”
“If I were to give advice to aspiring young models, it would be to be yourself. It’s all about finding your own thing, when you get into this crazy world.”
