Some jobs call for only a small part of the model to show: hands, feet, backs, and legs are among the most common. There are models who specialize in this “parts” work, and there are even specialized agencies for it in large market cities. They must have very attractive hands (thin, long fingers) and feet or other body parts. Specialty models often go to extremes to maintain the appearance of their parts – wearing gloves all day every day, for instance, and frequently applying lotion to keep the skin soft and smooth.
Many specialty models work regular modeling jobs as well. In fact, in many smaller market cities agencies have few if any pure “parts” models. They use their models who also happen to have attractive hands and feet. A large part of the market for specialty models is TV ads, so they tend to work with agencies which specialize in both print and commercial TV.
