New York, NY -- Fashion models who want to get their feet wet in the modeling business are getting a leg up by showing off individual body parts.

It seems body part modeling has become just as lucrative as body modeling.

That's according to Danielle Korwin, owner of the Parts Models agency in New York City, which handles over 75 models who specialize in body parts ranging from ears, hands, feet and even noses.

Korwin admits some models are needed for less than glamorous jobs like the magazine advertisement that asked for a Jimmy Durante-sized nose to symbolize someone who smells an incontinence problem.
