Open Call: Petite Models Wanted!

Are you a petite fashion lover in the Boston area? We’re looking for women like you to help bring Top Shelf Trends to life!

About the Opportunity

Top Shelf Trends is a (soon-to-be) secondhand marketplace dedicated to high-quality petite fashion, because the best things in life should never be out of reach. We are gearing up to launch our website later this year and are hosting an open call for petite women to model for our website and social media platforms like Instagram. This is a fantastic chance to support a new local business, meet like-minded women, and have some fun in front of the camera!

Meet the Founder

Hi, I’m Carly, the founder of Top Shelf Trends! As a petite woman myself
(5’2” on a good day!), I’ve always struggled to find stylish, affordable
clothes that actually fit. That frustration led me to create Top Shelf Trends
— an online marketplace where petite women can find high-quality,
preloved pieces without the endless searching.

I’m beyond excited to build a community of petite women who love fashion,
sustainability, and great secondhand finds. If that sounds like you, I’d love
for you to be part of this journey!

And if you’re wondering whether I’m a real person — yes, I promise this model call is not a creepy scam. 😂 Feel free to connect with me on Instagram or LinkedIn—just a girl with a dream, trying to make fashion more inclusive (and fun!).

What to Expect

📸 Professional Photoshoot – We'll have a talented photographer will be onsite to capture stunning shots.
👗 Your Style, Your Way – Come dressed in your favorite outfit that represents you and bring a few others to change into if we have time. I'll send out a few inspiration photos before the shoot!
💄 Do Your Own Glam – Keep it natural or go bold, however you feel comfortable!
🍕 Snacks & Mocktails to Celebrate! – After the shoot, enjoy some delicious food and connect with other amazing women in the Boston area.

Who We're Looking For

Petite women (5’4” and under)
Comfortable in front of the camera (or willing to have fun with it!)
Open to having their photos featured on our website & social media
All body types welcome: We know that petite isn't one-size-fits-all—and we want to celebrate that! Whatever your body type is, we encourage you to apply as long as you're 5'4" and under. Our goal is to showcase real petite women with real style so that everyone can see themselves reflected in the fashion they love. If you’ve ever struggled to find clothes that fit, this is your chance to help change that!
