How to Be a Lingerie Model? | Model Factory

Like glamor modeling, lingerie modeling is a large segment of the modeling industry. But it is much more than modeling in a short dress. Read on to find out how to succeed as a bikini and lingerie model.

What is a Lingerie Model?

A lingerie model is one that poses in lingerie, bikini, or underwear for various brands. Some of the most well-known lingerie brands include Victoria's Secret, Agent Provocateur, La Perla, and Wonderbra. While some brands have strict requirements, others are far more relaxed - it all depends on their target audience.

What Are the Requirements for Lingerie Modelling?

Lingerie modeling requirements vary from brand to brand. Victoria's Secret is very popular and they have very strict requirements for their models, which all have to reach a certain height and most have a lower body fat percentage. Her 'angels' (catwalk models) are all considered supermodels and many young women aspire to this level of success. However, it is a very difficult brand to be accepted and the competition is fierce.

For other brands with a more relaxed outlook, the model should have nice and proportioned figures and attractive faces. Male underwear models require a certain amount of muscle, while female lingerie models must have the least amount of fat. The size of an hourglass is usually desired; Many brands also prefer a good bust size to show their female models a bra set. The curves show lingerie well, so a short waist and peach butts are always positive.

Other things to consider are:

- Maintaining hair (no visible roots or split ends)
- Looking after hands and feet (mani and pedi’s)
- No habitual bruises, burns, or scars

Other traits, such as piercings and tattoos, consider entirely on the brand you are working with. Some brands (e.g. alternative brands) may prefer models with large visible tattoos and body modifications. Others may prefer a more natural look.

Height is not of huge importance unless you are looking to become a runway model.

Lingerie modeling is similar to common forms of modeling. Models clearly have to be very comfortable wearing short dresses and they have to pose in different ways to do regular modeling. A model can be said to look attractive on camera.

Swimwear shots can be taken on the beach, while lingerie shots can be taken in a bedroom (or on a set that is designed to look like a bedroom).

How Much Do Lingerie Models Get Paid?

VS models typically work up to 4 times a week, but they will extend this to every day.

Staying Safe As a Lingerie Model:

While it is important that all models remain safe, it is important that lingerie models know specifically how to protect themselves.

A model should never be forced into a situation that makes them feel uncomfortable. It is therefore very important that an underwear model connects to the right agency that protects and supports all of its signed models.

If a model is ever contacted online it is important that the model does some research to verify whether the offeror contract is valid. Never follow links sent by strangers, nor phone numbers, or email addresses sent by you. Instead, the company conducts research on the person who claims to have used an official listed email or number.

If you are ever unsure, do not work with someone you cannot verify. A real company or person will always be more than happy to point you in the right direction for their proper credibility.

Unfortunately, the lingerie industry attracts a lot of scam artists and it is the model's responsibility to ensure that it never endangers itself. Always read the contract thoroughly and do your research. Even the world's top lingerie models should ensure their safety, not just beginners.

How Do I Get Into Lingerie Modelling?:

Like all forms of modeling, lingerie models will find the most work by joining an agency.

You should research agencies that work with lingerie brands and who specialize in working with underwear models. You can apply to as many agencies as you want.

You should also use social media, especially Instagram (many models also use Twitter as a way to communicate with fans). Some models, such as Alexis Ren, became famous purely because of social media. It is a time-consuming tool, but can eventually lead to work, fans, and money.

Fashion is a difficult and challenging industry to enter, so it requires a lot of patience and perseverance to succeed. Make sure you have a great portfolio to showcase your skills and experience as a model.

If you are just starting out and have yet to gain any experience, it is a good idea to book a professional photoshoot. Not only will you gain experience in front of the camera but you will also be able to purchase your favorite images for inclusion in your portfolio. A model's portfolio is similar to their CV and they will carry it with them to any brand and agency interview. Therefore it is very important that the portfolio is professional and stands out from the competition.

In short, here are the main things a lingerie model should do:

– Feel confident. An underwear model should feel confident in their skin and it should come on camera.

- Work on their body. As your body will be on display, you should eat well and do regular workouts.

- Work on your skin and hair. You should keep a good skincare routine for your face, but don't forget your body skin - keep it smooth and hydrated.

- Practice posing. You do not have clothes to hide behind, so make sure you know your best angles.

What to Bring to a Casting:

If you are accepted to casting a brand or agency, there are some important things that you should keep with you:

- Naked G-string. You will probably be asked to pose in sample underwear so that they can see your figure. You probably won't be the first to try this set, so bring a nude G-string to wear down for hygiene purposes. Make sure it is not too tight as you do not want it to leave any visible lines.

- You can learn how to travel a waxer or shave your underarm and your bikini area. The neck is required to be smooth from the bottom for most models, so make sure you check the requirements of the brand before casting.

- Learn to do your own make-up. If you have scratches or underwear bags, learn to cover them with a concealer.

- There are constant fluctuations in size. This can be from weight loss/gain, illness, stress, or hormones. You need to check your size every 6 months and update your modeling information so that the brands update your size.

- A tampon or menstrual cup is important for female models because you will need to pose in underwear or swimwear during your period. Apparently, pads are out of the question as they appear, so make sure you have some tampons or a menstrual cup at all times.
