Models have been around since the days of the Renaissance and even before then. They first started as models for painters.

The first documented crossover into fashion occurred in the late 1800s in France where Charles Frederick Worth, a clothing designer, hired his wife to act as a "model" to showoff his designs. Because of this he has been named the "Father of Haute Couture."
