Today's average size model is a 2. In the past several years a size 0 (yes, zero) has been added.

I've read that the average American woman is 5'4" and weighs 140 pounds and the average model is 5'11" and weighs 117 pounds.

Just thought I'd throw that out there... ;)

True, but the key word is "model". Today's average non-model American woman is a 14.
