What is Glamour Modeling?
This might seem like a dumb question but I don't really know so, what exactly is glamour modeling? Please give me your opinion on what this is! Thank you Nov 02 06 04:39 pm Link You're gonna get tons of answers, but I suspect the stereotype of Glamour modeling is showing lots of sex appeal. Think Maxim and FHM. or my weak attempts... Nov 02 06 05:27 pm Link most glamour is really pretty girls in lingerie looking sexy. Nov 02 06 05:29 pm Link Glamour is focusing on the breasts while fashion is focusing on the bra... does that help? Nov 02 06 05:50 pm Link This being the Internet, you should assume that glamour = nude until proven otherwise. Nov 02 06 05:56 pm Link yeah that's what internet's idea of glamour is, for some reason, i believe this is more like it tho (the second one) Nov 02 06 05:59 pm Link Every commercial shoot I have done that requested "Glamour Models" resulted in models in skimpy lingerie. So you'd do well to think FHM MAXIM etc. Some people also qualify Palyboy style nudes as glamour so make sure you understand THEIR interpretation before making a descision!

Here I am, trying to shoot a catalog emphasizing sophistication, recruiting glamour models. It took me a few days to catch on that it was my misinterpretation...

Nov 02 06 06:56 pm Link I am a glamour model. I HATE boys. and by boys i mean any guy under 40. y'all are SO WEAK.

Nov 02 06 08:06 pm Link great thanks a lot, you guys really helped! Nov 02 06 10:45 pm Link glamour photography actually started as an emphasis of the model over all other things. The face, body, shape, beauty etc are the point of the whole photograph. Things like what clothes they are wearing (or not wearing) comes secondary to displaying the natural beauty of the subject. Now, FHM/MAXIM/Playboy have become the symbols of glamour modeling. But it pretty much encompasses any photo where the composition, lighting, makeup and wardrobe are all styled to make the model look her best.
