She doesn't really have a say in that. She wears what her employing brand gives her, whether it's granny-style lingerie or something "nicer". I do believe she has to move on from these dead end lingerie magazine shoots if she wants to go anywhere in the industry. Though perhaps she is waiting to be done with her studies before taking the next step.

Lets be honest, modelling has always been about looks and not personality unless you're more than a pretty face/body to show off different pieces of clothing. Personality has never mattered in that equation as the employers don't usually give a damn if the models kick kittens for leisure as long as they're hot and can their image can be of use to sell their products. That is until a model gets big. Then personality starts to matter a bit more. Nowadays with social media it's really easy to find quick replacements willing to do anything for a chance in the industry and fame. The only way a model's personality matters truly is if a popular social movement is going on (BLM, MeToo, etc) and a model publicly voices against it on a social network. Is it because emplying companies DO care? No, simply because voicing against the current "trend" equals possible loss of customers and sales, thus, if a model publicly goes against it, they'll be fired quickly. TL;DR: A model's feelings don't really matter to employers because they're being paid to be pretty for their products and that's it.

It's a general thing. Pretty much all good looking female models/Instagram models have to deal with random creepy messages or comments on their pictures and it becomes more apparent the more skin they show. I can't for the life of me figure out what goes on in the heads of those men when they think about sending those messages. Do they expect a reply? A compliment if it's a picture of their junk as so many men seem to like sending out of nowhere? Still, if Nicola finds these comments horrible now when she's "small" in the business, I wonder what she'll think if/when she reaches the popularity of the top ones that have more visibility and surely get an endless stream of creeps in their inboxes.
