Incredible Shrinking Model

carmen5.jpgCould Carmen Kass be getting smaller? That's what some folks were led to believe when they noted Kass was listed on a German website as being between 5'5" and 5'7", and on another site as 5'8". "She's probably undergoing some sort of rare mutation that makes her height vary from 170 to 175 cm," wrote Basilio of Fashist! Forum. Actually, models' heights are routinely fudged, especially if the model is too short. It is possible, however, to be too tall. Seventies supermodel Cheryl Tiegs was routinely listed as 5'11" although she's 6 feet tall.
