Since I began transition and loving who I am, no longer have that fear of doing what I feel. I have always admired fashion, elegance and being feminine. One of my dreams is to model and I am working on that dream now. Seems to be working since wonderful comments come my way just about every day on what I wear. Do what you feel and be proud of it! its the secret of others loving you as you are. I am still learning! life is a learning process with its ups and downs. So if you love fashion and being elegant then do it!! it has nothing to do with age or what others say! its all about you and doing what you want in life.

Victoria,
While I commend you for your take in life, and going after your dreams, and share your view that being elegant and fashionable, truth is that when it comes to modeling, what society demands from fashion models is 99.9% of the time impossible for any woman (or man when it comes to male models). The "Standards of beauty", size, age, etc, are just... well, unreal for most anybody, even somebody who may be willing to do all sacrifices to get in the field.
True, there is some headway, minimal, but is there, as for models being able to break those standards, but it just the exception, not the rule. Full size models being one of the examples.
Regardless... like I mentioned before, first step, you got! Goes for anybody. Being comfortable in your own skin.
