I tune into Playboy titles to see beautiful women tastefully getting naked in varying degrees of well filmed scenes. Harmless fantasy. Easy titillation if you will. Leaving 'Playmates on the Catwalk' in an odd spot. A huge number of Playmates appear, but many don't get much focus and because it's a legit fashion show nudity is not the primary purpose.

In Sept 2000, fashion designer Betsey Johnson used Playmates to showcase her Spring 2001 collection in NYC which got mainstream media attention. This title shows off a tightly edited recap of the day's events, moments as you can see below;

If we aren't seeing the sights on the runway we're backstage in a crowd of people - staff, models, press - chatting, relaxing, changing clothes. That's where most of the topless nudity happens. Some strip down and get playful for the camera or photographers, but it's not common. The sense that many of the ladies are real friends - that Playboy family bond - rings true. Beyond that clips from other videos are reused as highlights. The clothing being shown off isn't eccentric. Ava & Karin stood out the most, but seeing Petra Verkaik even briefly was nice.

'Playmates on the Catwalk' is a unique title and in no way painful or boring to watch, but I won't be revisiting it. It's got a friendly vibe, but the content isn't what I'm looking for. Although Playmates on the runway as opposed to the traditional standard is something I could get behind.
