[WATCH] The Shocking thing the Modeling Industry told this 19yo Swedish Model!

In the video, Agnes says she’s had to give up modelling full-time as she’s struggling to get jobs after nearly five years in the industry. She’s been working as a model since the age of just 15 and came third in Sweden’s Next Top Model only last year.

 

Swedish model Agnes Hedengard has hit back at the ridiculous and damaging body standards of some in the fashion industry, after being told she’s ‘too big’ for bookings.
