What is lingerie modeling ?

Interesting question. I did a google search and found this blog helpful in explaining it.

OK HERE IS HOW IT WORKS IN THE LINGERIE MODELING BUSINESS HERE IN TAMPA. THE MAN WALKS INTO THE DOOR OF THE BUSINESS INTO A SMALL LOBBY.NORMALLY THE MAN WILL BE GREETED BY ONE TO THREE LADIES, AT THAT POINT HE CHOOSES ONE IF ONLY ONE GIRL ONLY COMES TO THE DOOR ALWAYS ASK IF THERE IS ANYONE ELSE AVAILABLE, TYPICALLY THIS BUSINESS WORKS OFF A UPS SYSTEM THAT YOU FIND AT A CAR DEALERSHIP, SO YOU MAY BE GREAT ED BY THE LEAST ATTRACTIVE LADY BASED OFF WEATHER OR NOT SHE HAS SEEN ANYONE THAT DAY. YOU WILL PAY NORMALLY 30.00 AT THE DOOR FOR THE 30 MINUTE ROOM FEE. NOW HERE IS WHERE IT GETS FUN. PLAN TO PAY ANYWHERE FROM 130 TO 200 MORE AT THIS POINT. THE MODEL ( RIGHT ) PAYS ANOTHER 30 TO THE HOUSE AFTER AS THE BUSINESS MAKES REFERENCE TO YOUR TIME THERE AS A SESSION THEN THE REST OF THE MONEY GOES TO THE GIRL FOR A TIP, AND YES THE GIRLS WORK OFF TIPS. NOW FROM MY EXPERIENCE 100.00 WILL GET YOU HAND JOB UNLESS YOU HAVE A WORKING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE GIRL YOU SEEING, WHAT I MEAN IS IF YOU HAVE BEEN THERE BEFORE. OK 140ISH FROM THIS POINT MAY GET A BJ OR BETTER. GIVE HER 200 AND U PRETTY MUCH DO OR GET WHATEVER YOU WANT. NOW REMEMBER THE GIRL HAS TO TIP OUT TO THE HOUSE AGAIN ANOTHER 30 FOR THE ROOM. SO IN YOUR EYES YOU MAY HAVE ALREADY PAID YOUR MONEY BUT REMEMBER SHE HAS TO PAY OUT. SO 30 MAY IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GETTING A HJ OF GETTING FULL SERVICE. NOW DON'T SPEAK TO THE GIRLS OF WHAT YOU’RE GOING TO GET FOR HOW MUCH! THEY WILL FREAK AND THINK YOUR A COP! THE THING TO DO IS GO WITH YOU GUT FEELING ON THE GIRL YOU CHOOSE ON WHO MAY GIVE YOU MORE FOR YOUR MONEY. PUT THE CASH ON THE TABLE IN PLANE SIGHT SO SHE CAN SEE HOW MUCH YOU TIPPED. THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO IS BRING 20S AND A COUPLE OF 10S BECAUSE WHEN YOU LEAVE THE MONEY ON THE TABLE IN THOSE DARK ROOMS IT HARD FOR THE GIRL TO SEE HOW MUCH YOU REALLY LEFT. BRING A CONDOM AND PUT ON TOP OF THE CASH, THIS WILL SEND A SILENT MESSAGE TO THE GIRL THAT YOU WANT SOMETHING MORE THEN A 5 MINUTE HAND JOB! MAKE SURE YOU HAVE ALL OF YOUR CLOTHS OFF AT THIS POINT, THIS IS SOMETHING ELSE THAT WILL HELP WITH THE COMFORT LEVEL WITH THE GIRL. AND ALSO WHEN THE COPS TOSS THE BUSINESS FROM TIME TO TIME THIS IS ONE OF THE THINGS THERE LOOKING FOR AS FAR AS WHAT THE GIRLS HAVE ON THEM, SO THE GIRLS MAY NOT HAVE ONE . SO DON'T GIVE THEM THE EXCUSE OF NOT PERFORMING FOR YOU! THIS IS ALSO A GOOD PLACE TO GO IF YOU HAVE THE FETISH THAT YOU CAN’T FIX AT HOME.NOW THEY SAY PROSTITUTION IS A VICTIMLESS CRIME, YEAH RIGHT! IT ALSO SEEMS THAT DRUGS GO HAND AND HAND WITH THIS BUSINESS CAREFULLY ABOUT GOING LATE HOURS SOME OF THIS PLACES ARE OPEN 24HOURS. DRUG DEALER THAT IS RUNNING THE STREETS IS IN AND OUT OF PLACES IN NIGHTTIME HOURS. YOU DON'T WANT TO WALK UP ON A DRUG DEAL UNKNOWINGLY. PROSTITUTION DOES NOTHING BUT RUIN FAMILIES, RELATIONSHIPS AND TRUST. THEY SAY GO AND OUT AND BUY IT, ITS BETTER THAT WAY TO KEEP FROM GETTING CAUGHT! IT’S NOT WORTH IT! THINK OF THE PEOPLE THAT YOU WILL HURT BEFORE YOU GO IN, YOUR KIDS! YOUR WIFE YOUR MOTHER PUBLIC EMBARRASSMENT YOU WILL RECEIVE IF YOU THERE WITH YOUR CLOTHS OFF AND A COP COMES BUSTING IN THE DOOR! I DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU BUT I DON'T WANNA SEE MY FACE ON THE SHERIFF DEPARTMENTS WEB SITE OR IN THAT STUPID LOCKED UP PAPER I'M SEEING FLOATING AROUND AT THE CONVINCE STORES.HERE I POST A COUPLE OF LINKS TO THE BUSINESS WE WROTE ABOUT. STAY TUNED MORE TO COME HERE I POST A COUPLE OF LINKS ON THE BUSINESS MY HUSBAND FREQUENTED THE RUINED OUR LIVES. THERE ARE SOME REVIEWS AND A LINK TO THE SHERIFF DEPARTMENTS WEB SITE OF THE GIRLS AND THE OWNERS ARREST RECORDS

There are "lingerie modeling" shops in Rockford, Illinois. Young ladies wearing bustiers or other lingerie greet you in the reception area. You choose one and pay the house a fee for to be with the model for a specified period. Signs in the modeling rooms make it clear that the house does not condone any illegal behavior. That's the premise.

However, if you tip the model, she is highly likely to do whatever consenting adults do in private. No amounts are discussed, nor are any acts discussed. Of course, the better the tip, the more she is likely to volunteer to do.

Rockford, IL gets a plug again. Ground zero for lingerie modeling!

Used to be a restaurant chain in Miami, "Black Angus", I think, that did lingerie modeling during lunch hours. They did bring in a lot of guys, but not sure how many lunches they sold. The premise was that you could buy the lingerie.

well, with two shops in Rockford proper and another one (I think) next door in Belvedere, it does have it's fair share of activity on this front.

BTW, I followed the link and the site is (not surprising, given the language used in the quoted piece) run by one of the moral-mongers. they even go so far as to "out" one of the women who works there, giving her name, description and also a description of her car. WTF, do they have no concept of the danger they could be putting this woman in? bunch of fuckin' idiots, IMHO.

The lingerie modeling shops in Tampa don't get good reviews. They tend to be expensive ripoffs. Backpage.com is full of ads for SMOKING hotties who claim to work at Primative(that's how they spell it) Modeling but I seriously doubt the pics are real.

I've been to a couple of Pasco county modeling shops, but they're expensive. Much better to just get an independent escort and a motel room. Cheaper, too.

What the fuck?

I have had some amazing experiences with models at lingerie modeling shops in Tampa. They may be expensive compared to other choices, but I have never been ripped off in all my years of visiting lingerie shops here.

Just like getting a lap dance from a dancer in a strip club, it could go perfectly, or poorly. Do your research, pick the woman carefully, and you'll likely have a great experience.

thanks for your inputs, but I was trying to find out what is supposed to be legally done there ? Are we allowed to shoot pics as a make believe model in front of us ?

Simple solution, ask THEM!

Are we allowed to shoot pics as a make believe model in front of us ?"

What are you, some kind of pervert?

"Now, I'm not interested in knowing what 'might' go on in there.. but I'm curious to know what exactly it means legally ? Do you get to take pictures of lingerie models ? or make them pose as per your wishes?"

From what I've seen in MA & the Albany, NY area, you can have the models dress up in an outfit that you're "thinking of buying" (wink, wink) & pose in it for a flat fee, and then everything else that transpires would be for any extra tip. I doubt that you'd be able to take any pics, but it wouldn't hurt to ask in advance.

I have visited Exclusive Lingerie and Chantilly Lace in Rockford, IL. For a guy who is not always interested in being teased by a strip club hottie, but wants sure thing full service or at least a CBJ from a decent enough looking woman for a known price, lingerie shops are the way to go. They can also be better than getting verified online with or without a credit card to use some escort, who is just as likely to be just a decent enough looking woman instead of the young hottie you expected.

At least with the lingerie shop, you only have time to get there invested when you show up and you can turn around and leave if you don't like what you see, no harm no foul, remain anonymous- or you can proceed using cash only and have a great time.

I will visit Tampa this winter. I find two places in Tampa, FL- Gemini and Studio Lingerie Modeling. But I find little information except for the past complaints about when Studio was called "Primitive." If anyone knows of similar places in the Tampa area or has information about them, it would be greatly appreciated.

Actually, if anyone knows of ANY similar types of places throughout the USA, I am sure people would want to know here on TUSCL.
