This led many agencies to form worldwide chains for example, the Marilyn Agency has branches in Paris and New York. It was rumoured that competing agencies were behind the raids. It was not uncommon for models staying in hotels such as La Louisiana in Paris or the Arena in Milan to have their hotel rooms raided by the police looking for their work visas. They would also pay their models in cash, which models would have to hide from customs agents. Italian agencies often coerced models to return to Italy without work visas by withholding their pay. In the 1960s, Italy had many fashion houses and fashion magazines but desperately needed models. Most models only worked in one market due to different labor laws governing modelling in various countries. Except for a few models travelling to Paris or New York, travelling was relatively unheard of for a model. In Germany, agents were not allowed to work for a percentage of a person's earnings, so they referred to themselves as secretaries. For the most part, models were responsible for their own billing. Throughout Europe, secretarial services acted as models' agents charging them weekly rates for their messages and bookings. In the 1960s, the modelling world established modelling agencies.

Models remained fairly anonymous, and relatively poorly paid, until the late 1940s, when the world's first three supermodels, Barbara Goalen, Bettina Graziani and Lisa Fonssagrives began commanding very large sums. The modeling profession expanded to photo modeling with the development of fashion photography. There were no standard physical measurement requirements for a model, and most designers would use women of varying sizes to demonstrate variety in their designs. Eventually, this became common practice for Parisian fashion houses. The term ' house model' was coined to describe this type of work. Modelling as a profession was first established in 1853 by Charles Frederick Worth, the 'father of haute couture', when he asked his wife, Marie Vernet Worth, to model the clothes he designed. In 14th-century Europe, fashion had been displayed in miniature form to (often royal) clients by fashion dolls, before the clothes were made in human size.
