Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit Issue Editor Tweeted With Mega-Fans Today

You, too, can follow her @MJ_Day where she describes herself as "more fun than a bag of possums!" She answered questions about things like how the model casting and styling business, etc. come together for the issue. Turns out, you can be SHORT and still be in the issue but you better not have a busted face. (Surprise!)

@cddacosta it depends our athlete models have 0, but for our core model group we want experienced and est. models.

@MikeA5Group @MJ_Day Make the model try both on! We pack 1000's of suits for each shoot. Whichever fit the best get shot.#AskSwimsuit

.@Angel_Bridget No height requirements! We have shot models/athletes from 5' to 6'5.A gorgeous, healthy body and beautiful face are key.
