I need a woman's expert knowledge on lingerie
 
Could you please spot-check
http://www.howling-wulf.com/temp/check.htm
and see if the pics match the descriptions?

I think they do, but guys can be pretty clueless sometimes.
You know how it is. :P

looks good to me, I like this one:

The teddy is normally worn for the seductive look, rather than practical reasons.
If you've ever worn one, you know how true this is ;)

btw, thanks - I have an urge to go shopping now :D

Despite the fact that your descriptions are ripped off from wikipedia, I'd like to offer some suggestions in terms of practice rather than theory:

Babydoll- usually much briefer than 6" above the knee, just skimming the point there the thighs meet. They also often have an empire waist and are quite filmy or sheer. The image you're using is more of a chemise than a babydoll. Try something like this http://us.st11.yimg.com/us.st.yimg.c..._1936_54221193


Bodystocking- In North America at least, they are not worn under clothing in cold weather. A unitard is generally used as for sporting purposes. If the garment has no legs, it is then a body suit, not a body stocking. Since they are not a popular thing to wear outside of the bedroom, they are often crotchless.

Camisole- It's more like a dressy, loose tank top meant to be worn under a blouse or jacket for modesty's sake. The image you are using is not a camisole at all. Try something like http://scene.barenecessities.com.edg...ties/8742han1?




Learn your product! Your customers know it much more intimately than you ever will, and will spot from a mile away if you don't know what you're talking about.

When in doubt, which I normally am when describing lingerie, I go to Fredericks.com

They break things down by page with visual ques :)

Thanks emmanuelle, this is the kind of response I was looking for. :)

Thanks for the examples, I'm looking to use only content I've licensed so I've been combing through my files. I'll try to find a babydoll and camisole.

Yes, hence me asking for advice here, rather than just slapping up some pages. :)

No release needed |bananna|
All of the snow refugees piling in made the party a public event. Content shot at a public event is fair game, since the subject has no reasonable expectation of privacy. :D

Torn Rose 2007-02-16 10:52 AM

Speaking of, when will we non snowpile people see some pics? The webcam was'nt on enough for me to get my $ worth, so I may be charging back.

emmanuelle 2007-02-16 11:00 AM

Torn wants to see the pics of UW in the candy thong?

Torn Rose 2007-02-16 11:01 AM

FINE....

CHARGEBACK!!!!!

However, one could contend that it was a private venue, where the general public wasn't invited. If that was the case (and as Clear Channel has exercised their rights to private venues), the content belongs to Greenie and would be subject to licensing. :)

You know, I've been avoiding this thread because of the title, but I kept seeing male names posting & now I know why.

Emma's avatar & Cleo telling me she's going over to shoot Foxy tonight have both gotten me strangely aroused....is that normal? |couch|

I really have absolutely no idea what normal is anymore.

My house guests walk around wearing a strap-on doing other girls for show and I shoot males with tits sodomizing other males and then make weekly bank deposits off of the money made from anonymous surfers who pay to watch it all. |thumb

I just try to fall through life serendipitously… |potleaf|

There were several folks piling in who were literally rescued from the side of the road- folks who may not have previously been invited. Furthermore, there was no work for hire agreement, so I would argue vigorously against any claim made by GG.

Besides... the mere fact that riff raff like me were on the premesis proves that it was indeed open to the general public.
