In her October 2019 cover interview for Vogue Australia, Hailey said she feels “inferior” to her fellow model friends. She is a few inches shorter than models like Kendall Jenner and the Hadid sisters.
“My burn in the modeling industry has been slow and I’ve had to learn to be okay with that. I’m shorter than most of the girls. Even though I’m five-foot-eight, I’m not a runway girl and I totally used to feel inferior to some of my friends,” she said.

“Look at Kendall [Jenner] and Bells [Bella Hadid] and Gigi [Hadid] … they’re all tall and doing every runway. For a while, there was a part of me that didn’t know if I could have the career I wanted if I couldn’t do runway. I don’t think that anymore.”
“You can make it work and not have to do runway, and I’ve done a good job with that,” Hailey added. “I’m proud of myself for building a more commercial career that worked for me and being confident about it.”
