Shop for lingerie by model!
I'm really curious about this concept. In addition to being able to shop by catalog, collection, costumes, or bargains, visitors can also search Trashy.com by model.
While it seems like they're primarily having some good tongue-in-cheek kind of fun, I imagine they must do pretty decent site traffic from men "browsing for gifts for their girlfriends". Furthermore, I wouldn't be surprised if they did really good business since most of their stuff is crazy expensive. I mean, c'mon, a plaid schoolgirl skirt no wider than my belt can run $125.00!
But then again, it really is an entertaining concept. If the product mark-up needs to be high due to the amount of bandwidth they burn through, so be it. Afterall, who else can make bright yellow duck-print fleece look trashy?
[For the über-geeky-naughty-costume-shopping readers of Newmoanyeah, B-movie queen Julie Strain is one of the models by whom you can search.]
