Glamour Models

Whenever we hear the word “model” or “modeling” we often think of attractive persons wearing or using a certain fashion or product that they’re supposed to endorse. But there’s a type of modeling where the product is, essentially, the model itself. Glamour modeling, unlike your typical fashion or commercial modeling, puts more emphasis on the subject than it does on the clothes the model is wearing, if any at all.

Yes, glamour modeling is more sexual in nature, because it’s all about creating sexually provocative images. In other words, those who are into glamour modeling do a bit of nudity or semi-nudity, depending on the job. It does, however, does not insist on nudity unless it has been agreed upon by all parties involved.

But although glamour modeling does involve some nudity and a certain degree of eroticism, it is not pornographic, and is more often than not done in very good taste. For all intents and purposes, glamour modeling is just another form of artistic expression.

Unlike other types of modeling, glamour modeling doesn’t impose too many requirements or restrictions. There aren’t any size issues, or minimum height requirements. All it requires is that a model should have a good physique, be 18 years and above, and most importantly, be very secure in her appearance. This probably explains why glamour modeling is one of the most popular types of modeling in existence, with the increasing number of models who are foraying into glamour modeling each day.

The advent of lad mags such as FHM, Maxim, Stuff and Zoo also gave rise to many glamour models. And of course, there’s the legendary Playboy, which has made household names out of women like Pamela Anderson and Carmen Electra.

Glamour modeling, however, is not limited to just photo shoots for magazines. Many glamour models are also hired to take part in car events as well as promotional trade shows.

Nowadays, one of the top names in glamour modeling is Keeley Hazell, who started out posing topless for The Sun’s Page 3 and is now one of the most popular glamour models in the world. She is regularly featured in Zoo magazine, and has appeared in FHM. Then there’s Katie Price, who is also known by the name Jordan. Also a Page 3 model, she has gone on to make a splash on the covers of FHM, Maxim, Nuts, Front, Zoo Weekly, Sky, Esquire, Loaded and Ice magazines.
