There are thousands of young people who want to make it in the fashion industry
every year, but unfortunately many will be disappointed. Here we at Child Actor
LA will identify some of the major pitfalls of the fashion industry and give tips on
how to avoid them.
Being over confident
A lot of people may find themselves the most beautiful or talented in their class,
and may grow up with a lot of praise, and be surrounded by people who tell them
that they're more beautiful than most of the supermodels out there. So it can be
a nasty surprise when they enter the world of modeling and find that they are
surrounded by beautiful people and are nothing special after all.

for you. However, if you're genuinely committed to launching a career in fashion,
then you just need to stay realistic and be prepared for the hard graft.
Not planning for the future
Especially in modeling, careers are very short. There are a handful of supermodels
whose faces allow them to keep working into their thirties and even forties, but
for the majority of catwalk and fashion models, they need to have something else
lined up.
Planning for the future
