Luminita Damila, 22, from Romania

Modelling experience: 14 years

What do you prefer wearing - knickers or thongs?

Thongs. For me, it's much more comfortable.

How often do you wax?

Not so often, because I'm blonde so it's not too obvious.

If you could change one thing about your body, what would you change and why?

Nothing. I love my body. I make a lot of money with it.

What do you love or hate most about being a lingerie model?

Ninety per cent of my jobs are for lingerie modelling. I love it because it's the best-paying modelling job.

What does your partner think about your job as a lingerie model?

He doesn't like it. He's a conservative Turkish Muslim. But my work is my work, I don't tell him what to do with his, so he has no right to interfere with mine.

What's your most embarrassing catwalk moment?

Once, my shoes were too big and I couldn't walk properly in them, so I just fell on the runway.
