Models Sought For Spec Lingerie Commercial

denise_lingerie_knees.jpg

An ad on Craig’s List seeks additional models for a commercial that’s being shot for a Chicago area lingerie brand. The ad promises no nudity or provocative photography will be taken. Say what? This is a lingerie shoot isn’t it? How do you shoot a lingerie commercial without being at least a tint bit provocative?

The only thing we can come up with is that Sears is coming out with a line of lingerie for women who don’t want to feel sexy while wearing it. Maybe targeted towards the over 75 set?

And on top of all of this, the gig is unpaid. But no worries, ladies. The ad promises the “material will be seen by ad execs and is a great way to be seen.” The question is, seen by ad execs for what purpose? We’re not going to ponder the answer to that question because it can only go south from here.
