Markets
There are specialized publications that feature and promote alternative models, including Alt Fashion and Gothic Beauty. Other magazines like Bizarre feature alternative models for visual emphasis for their features. "Metal Queens: Models" (Carnifex Metal eBooks) features alt female models that are into Heavy Metal music.
Personal adult pay websites exist for alternative models specialising in alternative porn and artistic nudity, like Suicide Girls, CosplayDeviants, IShotMyself, GodsGirls, BlueBlood, BurningAngel (Hardcore), CrazyBabe, SuperCult and BarelyEvil. But, not all alternative models are associated with the porn industry. For example, Twisted Angels is one such outlet that touts itself as more artistic and community oriented. There are many alternative fashion models as well, featuring handmade clothes, corsets, fascinatiors, pasties, and more. Alternative fashion models will often work with exclusive alternative designers.
Alternative models are often employed to promote niche products, either in shops or online, particular subcultural clothing shops and websites.

Famous quotes containing the word markets:
“A free-enterprise economy depends only on markets, and according to the most advanced mathematical macroeconomic theory, markets depend only on moods: specifically, the mood of the men in the pinstripes, also known as the Boys on the Street. When the Boys are in a good mood, the market thrives; when they get scared or sullen, it is time for each one of us to look into the retail apple business.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
“When the great markets by the sea shut fast
All that calm Sunday that goes on and on:
When even lovers find their peace at last,
And Earth is but a star, that once had shone.”
—James Elroy Flecker (1884–1919)
