    You can talk to these women while wearing them or see videos of them wearing them on their websites. Then buy the garments via Ebay. I accidently stumbled on one of these listings a long time ago. They are very carefully written so do not breach policies.

    I personally fail to see the appeal. However If someone can make money doing this then good luck to them. There are far worse ways to make money.

    As Martin says - please be nice - there is no such thing as a stupid question ! ;)

    Reading the comments, I am Not Clicking.

    However, there are various niche markets & so long as she pays her fees & delivers on time, who are we to judge?

    I can't comment on this particular "model" but I do model my own clothes (not underwear) and have had some really disturbing messages. A few asking if they could buy my underwear... one even said they didn't care if it was new or used, just name a price... so it must work for some people...

    I am quite a lot younger than said model though haha.

    She is posting and posing for loads of stuff.
    Ouch my eyes!


    I actually bought a tailors dummy to sell stuff modelled on. What if people recognized you?

    A friend bought some expensive shoes for a wedding but didn't wear them in the end. She put them up for sale, and had loads of requests asking if she could take photos of her feet wearing the shoes. Oh and these people would pay extra money if she did just that!:D

    Totally freaked her out.

    There are some proper strange people out there. I had one guy send me a really long 2 part message about how i have style, he doesn't know why i've chosen to sell my stuff cause it looks great on me... and it just freaked me out. Thought I'm definitely cutting my face out next time lol.

    One asked me if I had anything lacy or silky that I have worn that I could sell to them!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!
