Ziprecruiter's figures range from as high as $401,500 to as low as $11,000 , with an average model salary of $125,457 annually in the US. Indeed states that the average hourly model salary is $23.43, although their figures do include adult modeling jobs which may skew the number towards a higher value. Most high fashion models earn between $25 and $300 per hour, according to Glassdoor. This equates to $52,000 to $624,000 per year, based on 40-hour work weeks.

Hi Desiree, I am not in the fashion industry but I would suggest doing some research about what the typical salary is for various types of modeling by searching on the internet. Something to keep in mind is that it's not realistic to look at what a Victoria's Secret model makes and assume that would be what your salary is, especially when getting started. Also learn about how models get their start in the industry and get "discovered" and explore other careers in the industry as well such as a fashion designer, buyer, etc. as that could be a way to get into the industry as well.
