It's Giving Tuesday!

Why Not Petites was created to challenge the modeling industry’s outdated standards and build a community where models of all heights, sizes, and identities can learn and thrive. What began as a local Chicago space for petite models has evolved into an entire movement uplifting underrepresented talent, supporting local designers, and reshaping the future of fashion and modeling.

 

On Giving Tuesday, we’re asking our community to help us keep this work going. Through tailored workshops, model trainings, fashion shows, networking events, and an overall supportive space, we’ve been able to create real opportunities for models, designers, and emerging talent. To continue growing this impact, we need your support, especially as we work toward our 2026 goal of securing a studio space that will allow us to expand our programming.

 

This Giving Tuesday, consider supporting a local Chicago nonprofit that aligns with your interests. When you give to us, we give right back to you through programs, resources, and a community that uplifts everyone. And we want to keep doing exactly that.

We're more than just a modeling platform, we're a community.

Together, we consistently challenge industry norms by prioritizing inclusivity, building confidence and creating opportunities for everyone, not just models. Through industry specific mentorship, professional guidance, and career preparation, we aim to help all individuals step into their power. 
Donate to the movement.

This Giving Tuesday, help us break industry standards and empower our growing community. We’re excited to share our goal of securing our very first studio space—an important step that will allow us to expand our impact and better serve our creatives.

Every contribution, no matter the amount, brings us closer to making this space a reality. Your support will help cover the initial months of acquiring and setting up our studio.

Thank you for helping us reach our goal!
