Lingerie modeling is a sub genre of glamour modeling. Lingerie modeling involves models displaying underwear or bras and other sexy garments. Naturally, it requires models to have a better toned body and proportions than in other fields. This is because in lingerie modeling, the models body is exposed to the hilt and no other kind of modeling demand such a level of exposure. However, lingerie modeling doesn’t just engage petite models; it also involves models who are plus sized, or thin or tall.
It doesn’t necessarily only engage of the same stature or size. Lingerie modeling can be found in abundance in calendars, websites, photographer’s books, fashion shows, and catalogs. However, nowadays it has become more of an adult entertainment than an informative event. There are several sports agencies in the United States itself that organize lingerie modeling shows in the happy hours. Since these events are considered to be a form of entertainment, they can be watched by couples, thus, allowing them to know the likes and dislikes of their partner.
Young trained models with experience are usually preferred as swimsuit models. There are several institutes that train young models to walk on the ramp, pose for pictures, and practice the other skills that a young model needs. Such training can be helpful when models audition for an agency. If you’re planning to be a professional model, then it’s always a good idea to have a portfolio and some training. Lingerie is a huge industry by itself and there are many exciting new things happening in the sphere of women’s lingerie. It’s essential to have a well toned and nicely shaped body if you’re seeking to be a lingerie model. In modeling too, there are areas of specialization and you should decide if you want to be a garment model, a swimsuit lingerie model, or an exotic lingerie model.
It’s a good idea to choose a modeling agency accordingly which will allow you to pursue the field of your choice. It is mainly the endorsements that make you popular. A popular lingerie company like Victoria’s Secret is known all over the world as much for its products as for its beautiful models. Your salary too depends on the endorsements. While a famous company will pay you well, others may barely cover your costs. There is no fixed pay. Since a career in modeling is short lived, most models have to work very hard in their career span of a model. Naturally, this puts a lot of pressure on the models to perform.
Lingerie models come in many sizes, not unlike the products they display. When shopping for lingerie, you should concentrate on the products that are being displayed rather than the models. Many women are uncomfortable when they go out to buy lingerie, this happens because they’re conscious of the models and afraid that they won’t look as good when the wear it. However, the fact is, when you model lingerie for your husband, he will be concentrating on you and not the lingerie. Thus, when shopping for lingerie, concentrate on the style and think if you’re partner will like that instead of the gorgeous model wearing it.
