Posted May 17, 200520 yr Height has always been a topic of discussion and debate throughout the entire modeling era and industry. Here's a few who rise above all others. (Note: These are girls that are actively working todays fashion runways, not models of the past who could be taller.) Tiiu Kuik - 6'2 Oluchi Onweagaba - 6'1 Hana Soukupova - 6'1 Janeta Samp - 6'0.5 Michelle Buswell - 6'0 Julia Stegner - 6'0 Erin O'Connor - 6'0 Jade Parfitt - 6'0 Rianne Ten Haken - 5'11.5 Taken from a reliable source on a fashion forum I watch.

May 17, 200520 yr Author And just to put Tiiu's height in perspective, here are two pictures where she is with other models. In this picture, Caroline Trentini is 5'11 1/2, Kim Noorda is 5'10 1/2, and Tiiu makes them both look short. In this picture, Tiiu makes both Hana Soukupova (6'1) and the 5'11 1/2 Eugenia Volodina look like dwarves. This is empirical evidence that she is atleast six-foot-two inches tall, the tallest working female model RIGHT NOW. Please do not hotlink images - post edited by persuazn
May 17, 200520 yr In 2004 rosa cha show I saw a picture on backstage tiiu and ana hickmann.Ana Hickmann taller than Tiiu...And I believe oluchi is the tallest model....
May 17, 200520 yr Author I know Oluchi is tall, especially when I see her next to Adriana and Gisele. Though, the pictures of Tiiu next to the other models ... she`s HUGE. Tiiu has to be 6'2.
May 17, 200520 yr Runway models are skinny?? No way <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Most runway models would be better suited as flagpoles than girlfriends.

December 28, 200618 yr Gemma has said in numerous interviews that she's 6'0" and I always thought that Tiiu was 6'3"?!
December 28, 200618 yr 5 ft 10 in (178 cm)Natasha Poly though she might be listed under that category by her agency, Natasha seems shorter in most of her runway shows
December 28, 200618 yr yeah i think so too Ben..but when she stands next to Zhenya, they look the same in height
December 28, 200618 yr do you have a pic ? also, make sure they're wearing the same shoes, sometimes some models wear flat shoes and others high heels and i'm like "WTF ? i thought X was taller ?" and then i look at their feet and understand
