"I finish, like, one book in a day. That's my problem. That's why Kindle is good for me, because I put, like, 15 books in it."
~ Barbara Palvin
Hungarian model Barbara Palvin needs no introduction. She was once ranked 4th in Maxim Hot 100 and was second in Tumblr's 2017 list of most popular models, and in 2019 she became a Victoria's Secret Angel. What more could a girl need?
Where height is concerned, Barbara once claimed to be 5'8½" (174 cm) tall. It is a known fact that everyone in the modeling world adds an inch or two to their heights.
As Heidi Klum once said that she is actually 5 feet 9 inches tall but she adds half an inch more to her height because everyone else lies about their height, so why not her?
After taking a careful look at Ms. Palvin and comparing her height to that of people like Sara Sampaio (5'6½"), Cara Delevingne (5'7½"), Zayn Malik (5'8"), etc, we think Ms. Palvin is knowingly or unknowingly adding exactly an inch to her already tall stature as well.
In any case, she is definitely not above 5 feet 8 inches.
The real height of Barbara Palvin is
