(of a woman’s body) tall, small boned, and skinny. Having an attractively lean and long looking physique like a model’s.
Women with modelesque figures are usually at least 1.75m and to flatter their proportions they wear “tall” sized clothing, which is longer but not wider.
Sometimes women only around 1.72m tall have body types that appear this way & wear certain ‘tall-sized’ apparel —usually these women are very leggy for their height.
A woman who lacks the attribute of being leggy/tall, and is also rather short— (1.60m & below, or sometimes just below 1.62m) —can be described as petite if she has a similarly skinny body and dainty-frame.
Chanel and Stella are both over 5’8” tall, small-framed, and under 120 pounds. They are often both admired and envied for possessing such extremely modelesque bodies.
being of like a paid high fashionmodel in appearance and mannerisms, but amateurish, and more often than not, the subject themselves is the only one who thinks so
Susan felt very modelesque after applying the $50lipstick, three coats of rouge and slipping into a matching set of Manolo pumps. Not bad for a Walmart checkout girl.
