Every woman in the world is unique in her beauty. But not everyone discovers it in themselves from an early age. Even the supermodels admired by the whole world, at different periods of their lives, wanted to change something in themselves - legs, face or figure. And they have something to be proud of.
World Standards
Very often among friends we, wanting to make a pleasant compliment, admire the length of the legs. This is especially common among girls. However, not all legs can be called long. In fact, this parameter is not determined visually, but with the help of special calculations. It is equal to the difference between the length of the legs and half the height. As a rule, these figures vary in the region of five to six centimeters.
For models, the length of the legs is of particular importance. The parameter is necessary in order for the clothes to fit perfectly. The legs of the models are considered long, starting from one hundred centimeters. At the same time, the optimal height for a girl who wants to go to the podium should start from 175 centimeters and above. This is the standard.

In the nineties of the last century, her face did not leave the covers of glossy magazines. German by birth, she is in 1990signed a contract with a Parisian modeling agency and left for the French capital, where her dizzying career in the world of fashion and luxury began.
But Nadia was not always considered a beauty. At school, she was terribly complex about her height. The girl was especially embarrassed by her legs, which, as she thought, developed faster than necessary and completely destroyed the proportionality of her figure. Having moved to Paris, Nadia finally realized and accepted her beauty. And her magnificent long legs became her pride: their height from the waist to the heels was 112 centimeters. From 1997 to 1999, Nadia Auerman was included in the Guinness Book of Records as the longest-legged model in the world.
