It's the 1980s and too-tall Laurie is bored with her life--school, boyfriend, etc. But one day, she gets discovered! She's asked to join a modeling agency. At first her mom is against it, but after a while, she gets hooked. Laurie goes from nobody to top model almost immediately, even becoming best friends with her biggest rival, Taryn. As Laurie and her mom get caught up in fashion life, Laurie's stepdad becomes concerned about what's happening to their family. Laurie's boyfriend is kind of douchey about it, as are her friends.
